The writer is spot-on - musharraf's days have been the darkest in pakistan's history. just like people still loved and praised gen. zia after he died, the love affair with the general is still not over for some people. 
 
gen. musharraf is the guy who admitted in his ludicrous autobiography that he had hundreds of people kidnapped and shipped over to the US torture cells in afghanistan and elsewhere for payment, including the afghan diplomatic envoy at the time 
 
he is responsible for the 12 may 2006 carnage in karachi where 48 innocents were killed - the same evening he delivered a speech in front of singing and dancing supporters that the carnage would never have an inquiry and vowed to "crush" and "mow-down", literally, any opposition 
 
and of course, he jailed and tortured hundreds of laywers and judges and their families in the process 
 
he would be the most brutal leader in pakistan's history if his antics and statements were not so comical and absurd
