Gen. Pervez Musharraf has done far too little to drive Al Qaeda and the Taliban from its Pakistani sanctuaries over the last six years, but President Bush still insists on linking America’s interests to the general’s erratic and authoritarian whims.
Musharraf's dictatorship should not be supported, nor should currently under house arrest Benazir Bhutto be receiving such criticism from Bush, as she is the main proponent for democracy in the government.
The problem with our foreign policy is glorifying candidates who strive to serve our interests, even though it may hurt the government and equity of the country.
We promise to help Pakistan with special forces units and other military support even before the country shows that it is effective in fighting terrorism and supporting democracy.
