Karachi Krisis!
November 2007. For Immediate release:Pakistan Problems
(ACPA-Karachi) President Musharref of Pakistan has declared a State of Emergency and arrested thousands of peaceful protestors. The move is in advance of a judgement by the Supreme Court which might not confirm his election as President. Unfortunately for Musharref, the Pakistani Court does not rubber stamp Presidential elections, unlike other nations where the son of a previous President dutifully gets crowned.
In reaction to the events, analysts have expressed deep concern that the situation could lead Pakistan to become a failed state with Al-Qaeda terrorists roaming around freely, Islamic fundamentalists causing havoc in the streets and WMD in the hands of "undemocratic forces".
Other commentators believe this would be an improvement for Pakistan whose greatest achievement since being founded by Jinnah in 1948 has been the world record beating number of military coups and executions of previous leaders.
Pakistan's other notable achievement has been the development of the British economy through the export of highly qualified Doctors and Engineers and low-wage workers.
In Lahore, Pakistan's second largest city, Fundamentalists took the opportunity to call for the city's name to be changed. Several placards objecting to its historical naming after a colonial French prostitute, called for the new name to be "Lachaddoor" .Other name change fanatics want Islamabad to be renamed Islamisnotsobad.
