One can make a case for any number of possible interpretations, since so little is actually known. What I discerned from some comments by the forgotten middle class is that they are disillusioned, to the point of becoming apathetic. That leaves the stage for the extremists and the military. With all the attention on the importance of uniforms and elections, what about the members of the court? Bhutto should really be speaking otit about that, if she's genuinely interested in a constitutional democracy.
