Musharraf's â€"In the Line of Fireâ€
Pakistan is again on front pages of all major tabloids and television all over world, not because of any terrorist link or Talibans but because of his own President revelation of some secret to sell his books and make some good money as he realize that his political demise is near. Mr.Parvez Musharraf a hardcore military personal seized the power through military coup by throwing out democratic elected government of Mr.Nawaz Sharif and declaring himself as a President of Pakistan by amending all the constitutional laws in October 1999.
• The book, In the Line of Fire, contains explosive details on how the United States persuaded Islamabad to join the war on terror and a first-hand account of see-sawing relations with neighbouring India.

• US intelligence paid Pakistan millions of dollars for handing over hundreds of Al-Qaeda suspects, and that Washington had threatened to bomb Pakistan back to the Stone Age if it did not back the war on terror. The book has also come under fire at home over Musharrafs remarks that Pakistans nuclear programme was not fully operational in 1999 when the country was embroiled in the Kargil conflict with India.
• Ahsan Iqbal, spokesman for Sharifs Pakistan Muslim League party, said that was a state secret, which should not have been leaked by the president. He has also violated the official secrecy law by talking about how Pakistan was coerced into joining the US-led war in Afghanistan, Iqbal said. He also called the memoir a pack of lies.
• Second famous quote form this book that the US had paid millions of dollars to Pakistan for capturing Al Qaeda operatives had come as a humiliation for your country. Under the law, the US could not give the prize money to any government or the institution. By saying this you had raised your own country credibility in fighting against terrorist and joining War on Terror. So your government could do any thing for sake of some millions dollars?

• A powerful alliance of six Islamic fundamentalist parties, Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA), also charged that Musharraf had violated his oath of office.
• He has no constitutional right to use state expense to sell the book and reveal state secrets to generate interest, senior alliance leader Liaqat Baluch said. He said the opposition would raise the issue in parliament when it meets next month.
• Since he is not a democratically elected leader who feels his hands are tied by the constraints of a democratic system, he does not have to worry about the direct or indirect consequence of his words. The book might have boosted President financial standing but it had neither served the cause of truth nor the interests of your own country.
