[jseankil]

Should be interesting. Stewert said Musharraf wanted to be on and he doesn't know why.

3. Last night Stewart said that it was the real deal and he shrugged

to indicate that he didn't know why the man would want to come on his show. :crazy:

5. he is one of the few honest news men, ok, ok he is a comedian

but comedians do news, not like our m$m, with facts.

10. There's been an effort to obscure the Bush/Musharraf connection since...

LondonYank posts this on DKos:

....

Before 9-11 Pakistan was regarded as hostile to the USA and complicit in international terrorism against the USA. The terrorist training camps funded by the CIA and Saudis and run by Pakistan's ISI to resist the Soviets in Afghanistan had morphed into the world's leading terrorism resource.

Since 9-11 Pakistan has been embraced by the Bush administration as an ally and received billions of dollars of grants, loans and weaponry. Given that Pakistan is linked to ALL major terrorism attacks before 9-11, on 9-11 and since 9-11, you have to wonder whose side they are on.

....

Pakistan has been linked to the training, supply and financing of the 9-11 attacks in New York and Washington, the Bali Bombings, the Madrid bombings, the 7/7/05 and 7/21/05 attacks in London, and the Delhi bombings. Pakistan harbours all the leaders of Al Qaeda, facilitates all the finance, provides all the sophisticated equipment for bombings, and provides all the training to all the known terrorist cells.
