Pakistan continued: Insights into perception of Musharraf's declaration by the public, the Islamists and opposition (Sharif and Bhutto)
We are continuing this series that started with the bombing of the Bhutto procession and continued with the imposition of Emergency rule.
General Public Forums
Seeing what is written in the forums gives a view of what what the public thinks although it is not completely representative (the people who post are younger and more technology savvy in general).
Net Pakistani Forum's, although messy, provide a diverse view of the situation. Quite a few posters supporting the Musharraf's move, as can be seen in the survey on the site Who can run the country better?,which shows that among the users of the site most support Musharraf with Nawaz Sharif a distant second. This seems to be in contradiction to a previous survey that shows that the large majority of users think Musharraf imposed emergency rule for his own interest: Who forced Musharraf to impose emergency. But is consistent with many postings that say the imposition of Emergency Rule was either "not surprising", but wrong or "necessary", although most hope it will be short lived.
A different very good forum that shows very diverse, but generally well voiced views is the forum of Muziq Pakistan, a popular Pakistani music site. The thread titled Emergency in Pakistan provides many views condemning the move as dictatorial, but others defending Musharraf saying there is no one else who could bring order to Pakistan.
Opposition
Jamaat-e-Islami the Islamist party published a new item in which it claims to reached agreements to cooperate with the PML (Pakistani Muslim League), the party of Nawaz Sharif, the exiled former Prime Minister. In this article the claimed that the leaders of both parties directed workers to collect information on police and administrators that are harming lawyers and "political workers", so they can be held accountable after Musharraf's rule ends: Jamaat, PML (N) joins hand to agitate against Musharraf Martial Law
The PML the PML website does not mention anything about Jamaat-e-Islami and actually says they have contacted the PPP (Pakistan People's Party, headed by Bhutto) to coordinate efforts (and it is unlikely that the PPP will be involved in any efforts with the Jamaat) for more see the PML website.

The Pakistani Fourth Estate, like any press, has always been in two camps. The views in this report are interesting to watch but my attention goes to the wonderful literature that comes out of the country at this juncture. I remember the rule of Greek Drama which says the best satires and comedies come out of a country where there is no internal peace. A whole lot of excellent satire is on the stage of literature now in Pakistan. I am tempted to leave all this press scum and read only literature from Pakistan today. That is certainly worth spending one’s time over!
