Imtiaz, you said "smart leaders who have the backing of the whole nation". You must be kidding. The nation picks leaders not the leadrs pick nation. If the vast majority of nation is not educated and intelligent, they will not pick smart leaders. We have smart leaders but they bow to the will of uneducated overwhelming majority of nation who have absolutely no idea how a country can become a better country for all.

"Pakistan need smart leaders who have the backing of the whole nation to negociate , with world leaders."

Easier said than done…put yourself into Zardari/Gilani shoes, consider all challenges realistically and their consequences and say what would you do?

The first line in this article reads "Opposition legislators are demanding that the US end its drone strikes against militants as a precondition……". Anyone with intelligence will know the objectives of opposition leaders are to overthrow the PPP government by all possible means even if they have to side with militants, the Talibans and the Al-Qaiedas and the terrorists.

Pakistan needs a leader who can lead the people, not a leader to be lead by people. Asking people what they want is a sign of weakness because people voted leaders to lead them not to follow them. It is next to impossible for 180 million people to agree on one plan of action. There will be chaos in Pakistan until it has a leader who is a leader not a follower.

pakistan will open the border again creating more strife inside the country. pakistan still allows the cia to operate in the country and murder its citizens. it released raymond davis without obtaining aafia siddiqui's release, disgraceful behavior to say the least. at least dr. siddiqui is not a murderer. the story published about her attempted murder are ludicrous. drone raids will continue and poverty and murder will continue, because the "leaders" are lining their pockets. elected or not, there are no democracies. as gandhi said (about democracy), "it would be a good idea,."

The American public's anti-Pakistan sentiment has grown also in the past couple of years. It is mistrust between two cultures, difficult to patch up.
