Opposition leaders meeting in London for the APC said that President Pervez Musharraf's decision to raid Islamabad's Lal Masjid to flush out militants and other actions were stoking extremism and endangering Pakistan. "We stand together for a common agenda, and that agenda is for the restoration of democracy through democracy," Sharif told AFP after the APDA was launched. "It has to be a peaceful movement... it is for a noble cause," said Sharif.
