Pakistani columnist Ayaz Amir on President Asif Ali Zardari, "Has Zardari done anything which comes close to the unbeatable folly of the 1965 war?... Do Zardari's alleged crimes measure up to the folly of General Yahya Khan who presided over the break-up of Pakistan?... Zardari may deserve all the pejorative adjectives in the dictionary but has he committed any crime, which comes close to the enormity of the disaster that was Kargil?
That adventure was meant to seize advantage in Kashmir once again. It ended up exposing Pakistan to fierce international criticism and giving birth to the term cross-border terrorism... He is just the luckless president of a luckless country."
