Zardari & Sharif Agree to Oust Musharraf

In less than a week Shariff has gone from publicly stating he will not impeach Musharraf to forging an agreement with Sharif to oust Musharraf. We knew this was going to happen, it was only a matter of time. Karmas a bitch. AFP

IF you thought that Pakistan is on the wrong track by appeasing the terrorists. Wait until Zardari and Sharif control Pakistan, then things will really start to unravel. I give Pakistan a year to two years to be firmly on the terrorists side. As if they aren't already.

LAHORE, Pakistan (AFP) — Pakistan's ruling coalition has agreed to expel US-backed President Pervez Musharraf from power, former prime minister Nawaz Sharif said on Wednesday.

Sharif said the widower of slain opposition leader Benazir Bhutto, Asif Ali Zardari, had agreed in talks on Tuesday to oust Musharraf in the wake of the coalition's victory in February elections.

"I have spoken with Mr Zardari that we should throw him out to respect the mandate of the people of Pakistan, and he agreed yesterday to do so," Sharif told a meeting marking the tenth anniversary of Pakistan's first nuclear tests.

There was no immediate comment from the PPP. Zardari last week described Musharraf in a television interview as a "relic of the past" but did not make an outright call for his resignation.

Musharraf's spokesman earlier on Wednesday denied rumours sweeping the country's stock market that Musharraf had resigned.

"It is absolute nonsense, there is no such thing, there is no thing like this under any sort of consideration," spokesman Rashid Qureshi told Dawn News television.

Sharif however called for Musharraf to be tried for sedition.

"There is no need to give safe exit to that man (Musharraf). He should be given same punishment which traitors deserve under the law and the constitution," Sharif said amid shouts of "Hang Musharraf, hang Musharraf."

The proposed constitutional package, which would require a two-thirds majority in parliament for approval, was launched by Zardari last week.
