Pakistani Americans Rally for Peace and Justice in Pakistan
On Sunday June 3rd, 2007, Pakistani Americans and their friends will hold a rally for the democracy and justice in Pakistan. The rally is planned outside the White House. Musharraf Responsible for Carnage in Karachi Another Dictatorial Regime in South Asia? Journalist Refuses to Accept Award from Musharraf October Elections in Pakistan The people of Pakistan have been denied their legitimate right for democracy for many years. Military rulers along with their interloper partners have longed ruled the country with iron hand and sham democracy in the name of international security.
Recently, Pakistani government agencies have threatened and intimidated Dr Ayesha
Various academics and citizens from around the world and from Pakistan have urged the Pakistan government not to curb academic freedom. At a time when Pakistan faces an internal political crisis and a dangerous regional security situation the need for information and free expression of ideas only increases. Dr. Siddiqa has produced thorough research on important topics that can inform open debate by all Pakistanis, and indeed others around the world. She and her work should be defended, not threatened or suppressed.
The recent events of firing the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Pakistan, the highest legal authority by the President General Mushharaf has unmasked the despotic ways of the current regime. The massacre of innocent lives in Karachi last month and the blatant neglect of the authorities in preserving the lives and safety of citizens of Karachi has shaken any trust left in the aims and agenda of the ruling military regime and its partners.
Coalition for the Restoration of Democracy and Justice (CRDP) crdpak.org is a non-partisan coalition of Pakistani Americans with the mission to ensure Independence of Judiciary, rule of law and transparent, free and fair elections in Pakistan in 2007

Dear Sir/Madam, I appreciate these thoughts to blame some one, as Pakistani history is full of ups and dawn with these kind of incidents, but it is not enough to blame one person or group of person alone .The realty is that Since the creation of Pakistan the Pakistani people are left at distant from the corridor of power so that the ruling elite can do what they wanted to do in favor of their interest, leaving the Pakistani people at the mercy of circumstances. As this policy is denial of right of Pakistani people to rule their country according to their aspiration and desire to built this country, which can provide equal opportunity to all without any discrimination for the establishment of welfare society. Only the society base on tolerance, equality and justice can be the real guarantee for the prosperous and strong Pakistan In the corridor of power all are the one and the same, whom should we sue and blame for, heinous crime of keeping the Pakistani away from corridor of power and robbing their moral and legal right to rule this country. Status Quo will remain unless you have some genuine and sincere leader emerge from within the people. All we are depending on feudal politician or on those who are loyal to them. Drawing room politicians will keep the politics in drawing room, simply because they want to fill the gap well wisher of the dawn trodden people in this country, they want to prove as a champion of masses but in reality they don’t want the masses to share the power in this country. AL-MIGHTY ALLAH HAS ASSURE THE POWER TO THE DOWNTRODEN, EXPLOITIVE PEOPLE TO RULE THEIR LAND PROVIDED WE COME TO TERM …An acceptable programmed for majority Pakistani from all the corner of the country. So please come out of this expectation that some one will do the required change for them.. Pakistan will not change through silent revolution or ballot. But need the alternate socio-political system to empower the Pakistani at grass route level. The people should come out on the streets to make their voice heard. The history has proved that any violent resistance will rune the target for change of system as the ruling elite will exploit the incidence as anti national and crush the movement. In the present circumstances we are again dragging our sovereignty at stack for the external interest in the name of national interest, instead of our interest i.e. the interest of Pakistani people at large. Therefore, expectations and being optimist is good but, the only way out of these crucial circumstances is to empower the common Pakistani at grass route level i.e. the change of system. This change is inevitable for the prosperous Pakistan .As a citizen of this country I have try to provide an alternate socio-political system to empower the masses at grass route level for rapid industrial and agriculture development with transparency and accountability in the system. Along with basic guarantees for the creation of welfare state, where in public representative and institution shall be answerable and accountable to the masses. Kindly see web site….www.idp.org.pk Kindly acknowledge with your comments.
