"Nearly every week," I believe is an exact quote from a journalist specializing in Pakistan and the surrounding region I saw on Democracy Now a couple of weeks ago, though he used it as I did, as a mild hyperbole.
Musharref is doing what he has always done, ruthlessly playing all the players against one another to stay in power. We tolerate this because he has always been a CIA asset - like Pinochet, Noriega, The Shah, Saddam Hussein, and whole host of other cuddly types.

We may have passed the last goood window for naval operations against Iran. Petreaus can drag his feet until after the election without getting Bush and Cheney worked up. If Obama wins, he probably knows that any military leaders who bent over for Bush are toast. Small hope, but it's all we have right now.

Nowadays the high ranking generals and such are nothing more than rich boy politicians just like their puppet masters. I respect the hell out of our troops as most of you know..but people like BeTRAYUS?? No respect at all..scum just like his daddy Bush.

so true, man! the top command is nothing more that politicians these days, not concerned with the mission as much as they are their own careers. peace.

hi Ella, do you have the link to the de-classified documents?

Amazing the best reason anyone can think of to keep Petreus from heading up CENTCOM is he needs to finish the surge before moving on. Proof brown nosing remains a surefire way to get to the top.
Negroponte has been going to Pakistan on almost a weekly basis begging them not to unseat what's now clearly a military junta w/out a popular mandate.
Of course the Pakistanis are upset. We blow up their troops all the time in classified accidents.
Bush misrepresenting someone? Say it isn't so!
