Most people in Pakistan, where illiteracy is rife, get their news from TV or radio. Shortly before the government suspended the constitution and the freedoms it guarantees, cable operators pulled the plug on domestic and international news channels — including the BBC, CNN and Fox News.

As Americans, we do give billions more to murderers like the terror state of Israel…and we wont blame them for the genocides they are committing every other day…so why should we act against Musharf???

The situation in Pakistan has a lot of playing out to do. I think it would be unfair to automatically condemn Musaraf, though I admit, his actions definitely cross the line.
We can hope that he really has the best for his nation in mind, even if we disagree with his method.
I don't know if anyone is going to be going in and toppling him regardless. No one toppled the Burma regime in that recent episode.
Sensationalism never helps.

The Pentagon likes to sell used tanks and planes to third-world dictators. Then when the dictators get a little too big for their breeches, the Pentagon blows up all the stuff they sold earlier....so they can sell new stuff...to replace the old stuff...that the Pentagon sold....then blew up... and so on

No.
Liberals already want to topple him and install a Taliban dictator.
Terrorist money helped get Democrats Elected last Election.
And now it's "pay-back time".
Wouldn't it be Cool if the Democrat Nominee for President picked a Terrorist for Vice President????
No Surprise.... But Cool!!!!!

We should of never of gave a dime to Pakistan, condsidering they've done nothing to help us in the terror war.
And besides the Taliban have a nice new home with no worries as long as Mushariff is in power.

There will be an election in January. The decision is up to the people.

I don't believe in the "Neo Con" boogeyman.
Don't worry, after we take care of Iran, Pakistan is next on the list.
