ZAB gave his life for a principle, and till today his ghost haunts every military ruler. Benazir Bhutto should never contemplate a deal with a man in uniform, otherwise it will deliver a blow to her credibility, which will forever bury her as a nonentity in politics.
PPP of ZAB had a majority in all the federating units of Pakistan. Today a wrong political move by Benazir will damage her capability to win in Punjab, Frontier, Balochistan and even in interior Sindh. PPP should never be seen as compromising on basic principles. A deal of any sorts with a military ruler, should be avoided under all circumstances.
