I am writing this when the reinstatement of the judges is imminent. I am watching these events unfold with watchful prudence, for though I know the fruit from the struggles of the lawyers and public will bear a sweet fruit, history has made it so that every positive event is followed by a few on the other end of the spectrum. From what I've gathered from various speeches and my own personal sources, Mr. Iftikhar Chaudhry's reinstatement should have been a fundamental priority of the current government in the first place. Their failure to do should be condemned, and barring any sudden miraculous economic u-turns on their part, work must be done to oust them post-haste. Though my attempts to think of a truly honest and concrete replacement falter in vain, I am adamant that better options do exist. Let us hope the reinstatement is unconditional and that this is first of many positive events which will eventually lead to a better, stable and united Pakistan.

Pakistan "to restore chief justice"
I am quite hesitant to make attempts to articulate my thoughts about the current politicial situation in Pakistan. As an avid cricket fan, my patriotic and cricketing spirit is currently marred by the recent security debacle that came to pass in Lahore. It seems the turmoil has continued from as far back as I know, and the Pakistani public must be commended for their ability to strive through phases of political unrest and general chaos.
