Musharraf can be accuesed of getting too close to USA and making some mistakes but not for plunder and robbing of Pakistan. Whatever action he took they were for the sake of Pakistan, unlike the current Government headed Zardari and Sharif who are not even elected representative and have a reputation for thievery, plundering and stealing from Pakistani people.
