Book Reviews of In the Line of Fire: A Memoir
Book Review: Autobiography of Pakistan's Best dictator
Summary: 3 Stars
In my view Musharraf was Pakistan's best dictator. He ruled an unstable Pakistan for more than 10 years when it was passing through the toughest phase. On reading this book one understands that he has no idea how democracatic countries work. When Indian leaders say that they don't have the mandate to re-draw the borders or they need the cabinet's approval, Musharraf reacts violently that Indian leaders are spineless.
He doesn't understand that when Simla Accord was signed General Zia-ul-Haq was part of the Pakistani delegation and Bhutto consulted with Zia frequently. So it is quite natural that Indian leaders also need their cabinet to approve their views.
I also expected 2 chapters, one about Musharraf terrorist operations against India and two about his penchant for Bollywood actresses specifically Rani Mukerjee.
The chpater about Musharraf terrorist operations against India are: 1999-Dec: Hijacking of Indian Airlines IC-814; 2000-March: Attack/murder of 40 sikhs in Indian Kashmir on the eve of President Clitonton's south asia visit;, 2001-oct: attack on Indian kashmir legislative assembly;; 2001-Dec: attack on the Indian Parliament; 2002 Jan: Attack and murder of children of Indian Army personnel in Kashmir.
