Andy9o8 3 #2 April 12, 2007 Musharraf is hardly a disinterested source. I'd like to see some independent verification, especially of casualties. I'd also like to see Musharraf demosntrate that there are not pockets of anarchal badlands in Pakistan where Al Quaeda can operate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyrad 0 #3 April 12, 2007 If you had ever been to Pakistan you'd know that that is imposible. No government there could garentee that. But your right he isn't a disinterested party seeing as Al Q have tried to kill him on several occassions he is very much an interested party.When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

narcimund 0 #4 April 12, 2007 If I ran an isolated country and wanted some good press, I'd round up 300 unfortunate losers, machine gun them, then announce that my government was prosecuting the WaR No TeRrOr {cue ominous music}. Repeat that every 3 or 4 months and America will keep sending money. Works like a charm. First Class Citizen Twice Over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
