Musharraf to Resign in the Next Few Days

Rather than be impeached (and without military support), Musharraf says he'll step down:

Musharraf Is Expected to Resign in Next Few Days - NYTimes.com

Quote:

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Faced with desertions by his political supporters and the neutrality of the Pakistani military, President Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan, an important ally of the United States, is expected to resign in the next few days rather than face impeachment charges, Pakistani politicians and Western diplomats said Thursday.

His departure from office is likely to unleash new instability in the country as the two main parties in the civilian government jockey for the division of power.

The details of how Mr. Musharraf would exit, and whether he would be able to stay in Pakistan — apparently his strong preference — or would seek residency abroad were now under discussion, the politicians said.
Mr. Musharraf was expected to resign before the coalition presented charges for impeachment to the Parliament early next week, said Nisar Ali Khan, a senior official in the Pakistani Muslim League-N, the minority partner in the coalition government.

Similarly, Sheikh Mansoor Ahmed, a senior official of the Pakistan People’s Party, the major party in the coalition, said on Thursday that the president would probably leave in the “next 72 hours.”

Is this and the War in Russia a pre-cursor to World War III? Because it sure as hell feels like it.

We may be exaggerating...

The Cold War was World War III and the Islamofascist War is Warld War IV, so at best this could be the beginning of World War V.

Gah, that means we're one step closer to World War Z.
