  It depends upon the outcome of the change.

  Zia ,despite all his evil doing, was a the real force behind the Jihad.
  It is a fact that he supported the Mujahideen even when the rest of the
  world weren't willing to accept that anyone can put up a resistance against 
  the (until then) invincible mighty Soviets. Pakistan without anyone's help
  supported the Jihad from 79 to 81, when Reagan administration first sent US
  military support for the mujahideen. Albeit, he was a dictator, Zia had
  envisioned a confederation between Afghanistan, Pakistan & Iran to form a
  true Islamic Bloc.

  Now is the time to materialize Zia's dreams. For some of his dictitorial
  internal policies led to a lot of chaos and social disordes so now is the
  time to acheive the fruit of all our sufferings. If we fail to establish
  an Islamic Gov. in Afghanistan then I think Zia was a flop and if we do
  get an Islamic Afghanistan , then rest assured today is the DAWN OF THE
  NEW ERA. An era of the rise of Muslims. Our renaisance(sp?).

 And Hope and pray that they will usher the rule of religion of Peace, Islam,
 to not only Afghanistan but to the entire world.

    Yes. I think most of them will return. Last Eidul Fitr, many Mohajareen
    leaders very confidently hoped that it was their last Eid in Pakistan
    as muhajirs.

     April 16, 1992 shall go down into the history as one of the brightest days      of the Muslims.
