great compilation of Busharraf statements...
But I have to hand it to Mushy, this has to be the most opportune moment in this "War on terror" or Ishould say "War of Territory"... to be making this such statement. I mean I believe he has no foresight or has his speech writers are the same guys that write for Bush, but this statement must have come from some planning....
lets see if the events following will explain this sudden openness of Busharraf.
Another reason is to draw publicity to his book because he might be gone from the Pakistan seen as soon as Bush leaves office and maybe a democrat comes in to the white house..
Musharraf, sparked laughter among those in the press conference in the White House East Room, saying he had promised his publisher not to talk what was in his forthcoming book, before it was released.
