The All Parties Conference (APC) held on Thursday last was, indeed, a resounding failure. It seems that it has sent a clear message to the comity of nations that the political system in Pakistan is bankrupt. According to some political analysts, the APC was held at the behest of the US administration and its real purpose was to exhibit to the world that the political leaders are united in Pakistan. Also, neither the Supreme Court or military should disturb the federal government, as it is serving Washingtons interests to the hilt. If it is a fact, I believe that the conference was a farce, comedy to hoodwink the innocent Pakistanis. Unfortunately, our political leaders are paid servants of USA. How can they dare to ask it not to attack Pakistan? The 13-point resolution adopted by the APC is tantamount to something written on a tissue paper. How recreant our leaders are is clear from this fact that the word "America" is conspicuously absent from the whole resolution. MUBUSHAR ALI SULEHRIA, Wah Cantt, October 1.
