In politics, there are no hard and fast rules. Take WikiLeaks on Nawaz Sharif and Ch Nisar as an example. The very men who are considered to be anti-US, in fact, seem to be cajoling the US Amabassodr to Pakistan in accepting them as pro-US allies and possibly an alternative to the PPP leader Benazir. This revelation is in direct contrast with their public statements and standing on the issue.
Pakistani politicians have never understood the importance of a stance and how it might affect the needs of the country. They use myopic approach to the most visible problem only, forgetting the bigger picture causing severe damage to the countrys image.
