musharraf puts on the charm

With three international media interviews this week, one of America’s favorite dictators is clearly trying to charm the Western press. His efforts probably didn’t impress the neighboring mullahs though, notes Nitin.

SPIEGEL: What would you suggest for keeping the Iranians from producing the bomb?
Musharraf: I can’t say. They are very keen on building the bomb.
SPIEGEL: As Pakistan was.
Musharraf: Yes, we were keen. Nobody can accept a threat to its existence. Therefore we are very proud to have nuclear weapons.
SPIEGEL: Did Pakistan help Iran and North Korea to go nuclear?
Musharraf: An individual from Pakistan did

    The blast the other day in Pakistan proves that the groups Mush and the army help grow are not turning on them. We honestly should be more worried bout Pakistani nukes landing in the hand of terrorists, their “nuclear father” already helped north korea get the bomb, who knows where else he was involved.

    correction : “NOW turning on them”
