Musharraf: Iraq war a mistake

[Rose Siding]

Pakistan's President Pervez Musharraf says the US-led invasion of Iraq has made the world a more dangerous place.

Though an ally of the United States, Musharraf on Friday described the invasion as a mistake and said it had complicated the "war on terror".

"It has ended up bringing more trouble to the world," Musharraf said in a television interview.

"The world is more dangerous because the Iraq war has aroused the passions of the Muslims more," he added.
...............
"We are fighting terrorism in its immediate context. That's not very far-sighted," Musharraf said.

1. Gee...think

Bush is going to be happy about this it of news. Of course, he will say the media is not reporting correctly and turn it around some way or another.
Everyone who has a brain knows this was a mistake...unfortunately there are a lot of no-brain folks running the joint

2. Don't worry

His statements will either be "clarified" or there will be another outing of operatives. *hold head in hands*

3. Does this mean Musharraf can't be Dubya's friend any more?

And maybe that Musharraf won't be trying to "find" Osama in time for the election?

11. I just saw him on NBC nightly news talking with Brokaw

he said about the same thing and when pressed on a possible pre-emp on Iran's Nuclear facilities he said that there would be bad repercussions from the muslim world. He also said Muslims are mad seeing other muslims being killed in Iraq everyday.
