Musharraf says Iraq war undermining battle against Al-Qaeda
Please go vote this story a 5

Even a Bushco ass-kisser like Musharaf is saying the Iraq war is a distraction.

http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/afp/20040407/wl_sthasia_afp/pakistan_qaeda_iraq_040407081034

In an interview to be broadcast Wednesday night on Australian public television SBS, Musharraf said his government was receiving "very minimal" assistance as it tried to pacify tribal areas along the Afghan border where leaders of Al-Qaeda and the former Afghan Taliban regime are believed hiding.


Asked if the US-led Iraq war has been a distraction from the battle against Al-Qaeda and Taliban remnants by diverting resources from Afghanistan and Pakistan, Musharraf replied: "Yes indeed".

2. Will the Bushies attack Musharraf now?
Since he is essentially testifying for Clarke! Soon we'll hear the Musharraf is a disgruntled former employee who was out of the loop and was passed over for a promotion and has a weird personal life but is just out to make money. Pay no attention to him!
