34. Lots of 'opinions' in that comment. Not shared, btw, with those who actually rely on facts

Btw, Musharaff is no longer in a position of power in Pakistan not to mention the fact that he was a puppet of the neo-cons.

Opinions from someone with a clear dislike, maybe even hatred of a particular person or country or culture etc. are taken with that in mind.

Hopefully wiser heads in India will prevail.

Otoh it could all be a PR/Psyops attempt to bring Pakistan back into the fold as far as NOT objecting to having foreign drones invading its sovereign airspace, and to persuade it to continue to cooperate by allowing NATO to use it as a supply route. Not to mention NATO needs to replenish its troops as countries like France, under new leadership, will be removing their troops in accordance with its people's demands.

The American people want out of Afghanistan and we will work hard to make that happen.
