Zaradari's exit strategy; Bilawal Zardari Bhutto

President Zardari is upto his tricks again; the puppet master knows that his time has come (after the recent Corp Commanders' meeting in Pakistan) and he is rushing through his plans to leave the scene with Bilawal firmly in the saddle. He was soft peddling Bilawal already within Pakistan and abroad but he loved the total power in his hands so much that he was not in any great hurry to install Bilawal in his place; now he is rushing through the motions...a mad rush it is. You will see everything fast forwarded for Bilawal which means old wine in brand new bottle minted at Oxford.
Zardari has sought the blessings of his masters in Washington and Hussain Haqqani has done a fantastic job to sell the Bilawal option which is better than let the generals come marching in. Next President Zardari went with his hat in his hand and his children by his side to Europe to sell his exit plan, Bilawal Zardari, to the European partners of the coalition in Afghanistan.
Fast forward again, a few more years of Bilawal rule before the love affair of Obama's administration with Zardari and his cronies will come to end with the first term in office of the US President and elections coming up. Report cards on Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan looks absolutely shitty and going into the elections the stench will be sky high.
American analysts at the NSA and those in other US security agencies have been played like a fool by Zardari, Haqqani and to a much lesser extent, Rahman Malik. This makes me believe that more body bags will be going back to USA in times to come. July 2010 was the worst month so far for families of American soldiers who died due to the fact that they have been put in harm's way by susequent presidents and an inept Zardari administration that is more likely to make money -- win or lose.
It is all about money honey!
