Good news, folks. Terrorism will be vanquished, erased, defeated, eliminated, and stamped out in Pakistan by December 16. That's because that is the day that General... er, I mean Mister... Musharraf has vowed to end the "emergency" by. And of course the great rationale for imposing "emergency" was to combat terrorism. So we can deduce that the fight against terrorism will be over by December 16. Only about two more weeks. Cool.
Now, there are those who might cynically think that Musharraf's timing has more to do with his sham of an election on January 8. See, the thing is that December 15 is the last date for candidates to withdraw their nomination papers from the Fake Election Commission. So by ending martial law a day later, he's keeping the parties guessing, and even if they did want to boycott any elections held under martial law, they won't be able to do so anymore since they will be officially on the ballot by then. Psyche! Who's the clever one now?!? Wow, Mush, no one can see through this one. You've fooled everyone.
