Musharraf has announced that martial law will continue even though elections will be held in January. He doesn't seem to think that there is anything strange about having elections while basic constitutional rights and freedoms are suspended, while civilians can be court-martialed due to an amendment of the Army Act of 1952 (trials of civilians in military courts, without legal representation and without the right to appeal), and while the media remains muzzled. Poor guy. He just can't understand what all the fuss is about, when all he wants to do is to continue ruling Pakistan in order to save it. Because, you know, he's been doing such a great job for the last eight years.
