Musharraf Steps Down

General Musharraf has officially stepped down as the head of the Pakistani army. Replacing him is Gen. Ashfaq Kayani, who is widely expected to maintain the army's pro-Western policies. By all reports, General Kayani is an excellent choice to replace Musharraf as head of the army. He is well known by our military and is well respected for his intelligence and dedication.

Musharraf's opposition is praising the move, but is continuing the call for his resignation from the civilian Presidency. If he doesn't voluntarily do that, it appears the only one who can force him to do it is his successor, Kayani, along with the military force of Pakistan.

Just keeping you informed.

There's my two cents.
