richard armitage threatened Musharaf of Pakistan with bombs if he did not play ball in our war on terror. bush was just asked about it and he started stuttering real bad. I don't doubt it, though armitage and bush deny it.

This is the same offer the neoconazis gave the taliban in Afghanistan.

I wonder if this is the same general offer we give all nations?

1. Interesting, isn't it?
To me, it's not interesting that we do it (threaten countries constantly - I'm sure of that). But the interesting thing is that Musharraf went public with it.

That's what speaks volumes.


Does he sense that the US is vulnerable? (we are)

Does he want revenge (who wouldn't?)

Or is it the elections (could be.....)

2. he certainly went off the neocon script
and caught fearless leader with his pants down. He may just be sick of being treated like a pet monkey of the ape'
