One man can make a difference.

President Musharraf is now considered a liability by many Pakistanis including those who were of the view that Musharraf has done some good to his Country. So many incidents happened but it was not possible for the opposition to strike a blow to Musharraf’s reign probably because their ulterior motive was also to grab power and plunder as they have done time and again. Political parties and their workers along with pressure groups have done their best to break loose Musharraf’s command but no one succeeded. Then came 9^th of March when the President sent the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court home by using his invincible powers. Obviously, the President knew that there is nobody who can confront him and stand. As it is a common belief, that one man cannot make any difference but here we saw that the whole equation, Musharraf has enjoyed for years with his unsurpassing powers was blown out and this all happened because of one man. This one man thought that he can assert his rights regardless of his adversaries. This man has given us the Pakistan that probably Mr. Jinnah had left behind. We thank this man and all those who stood by him and those who lost their lives in this cause. This man has shown us that albeit in such crucial times you may have to walk alone but so long as you are on the right path you do not have to be afraid of anything. This man has proved that our courts are not here to perpetuate military regimes. We are thankful to you for giving us the strength and vision that we have been lacking. I am not worried now by the deals this establishment is making with other political parties to stay in power or extend the terms of their offices because I know that my courts are free and they will drag everything down that does not have the right to stand. As Khalif Mohammed aka Malcolm X has once said “a man who stands for nothing will fall for anything”.
