"The treason of which I stand convicted loses all its guilt, has been sanctified as a duty, and will be ennobled as a sacrifice."#Musharraf #MusharrafVerdict
A sad day indeed .. when a patriot is called a traitor. #PervezMusharraf you sir will always be our patriot . A true Pakistani a brave soldier and son of the soil. #pakarmyZindabad .

After #Musharraf verdict, Will PML N & our SUPER INTELLECTUALS now apologise for their allegations abt Judiciary being Establishment's puppet when Nawaz's verdict came out?

Judiciary of Pakistan after more than six decades today has wiped off the dirt of "doctrine of necessity" from its face. Long Live the Constitution, Love live Pakistan.

And some went on a completely different tangent
Even though I fundamentally believe that we must forgo the relief thats comes with a military intervention and democracy must go on uninterrupted in the hope that one day it shall deliver, today i really wish the army comes in and gives a collective ass whooping to all
