ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - President Pervez Musharraf said Saturday that he imposed a state of emergency last month as a last resort to save Pakistan from destruction.
Musharraf, in a nationally televised address after lifting the emergency earlier in the day, said a conspiracy had been hatched by unspecified people to derail the country’s transition to democracy.
Hopefully, this moment can be capitalized upon by the Pakistani military, and they can begin to retake their northwestern provinces from the Taliban/fellow travelers.
