Joe, I though democracy is a better idea to compact extremist, General Musharraf is an extremist. Keeping all the moderate e.g. President of Supreme Bar Council, in the Jail and keeping extermist out side the does not make sense for me. We gave 23 billion US dollars in aids to Pakistan in this 20 billion went as weapons to Pakistan Army and 3 billion for social upliftment. I wish it wold had been other way around.

General Musharraf is extremist and more danger to US and world at large.
