Holbrooke dismisses chances of Musharraf comeback

Precisely and therefore the failure of policy - whether Iraq, where the US's adversary Iran is now king maker, Afghanistan, where, well, what's there to say that we are all not aware of and of course Pakistan, where US policy is widely rejected.

I do not want to broaden this discussion into the Middle East intentionally in this thread, so I will refrain from rebutting you point by point.

With regards to to US policy in Afghanistan and Pakistan, why don't we agree to disagree over this point (failure / desired outcome) for now, until the situation has evolved a little bit further. That may help convince one or the other about who was/is closer to the truth.

In the meantime, I am sure we can find lots to discuss intelligently and debate passionately, but fairly and politely, as we have been doing for quite a few days now.

I cannot even begin to tell you just how unintentionally funny and grammatically wrong your post is, but will thank you instead for the entertainment!

Please feel free to ignore my posts, since I will be ignoring yours from now on.

Musharraf will come back and pay the property taxes due on his ranch in Islamabad. Plus CDA is looking for people who are good at "look busy do nothing" types. Musharaf claimed Munda Dam will be completed, Basha Dam has started, none of them have not even started. Father of BS.

Another one Mush never heard of Aafia before.

ANY government, whether be it political of any flavor, or military, that comes into power in Pakistan under the present circumstances is virtually guaranteed to be subservient to the USA.

Like it or not, this is a blunt and bitter fact.

The only way this hold can be broken is a grass-roots revolution, which is bound to be hugely disruptive, and that will likely not be allowed by the established players, including the army.

Thus, Pakistan is caught in betwen a rock and a hard place proverbially speaking, for the foreseeable future.
