>And while Musharraf is out of the country, such a perfect time for Pakistani rebels to perform a coup.

Certainly possible. I believe Musharraf is strong enough to put down any internal opposition (that's why you are seeing him take trips, he is playing tough to "compromise" while he goes to collect more prizes from others, for example China will ask for a green signal to put down its own Muslim terrorists to the west and have US shut up barking about human rights and Saudi Arabia,well, we protect the fat king bastards, they always do what we want them to do anyway, what Musharraf wants from the Saudis is done).

Now remember Taliban assasinated Massoud in the North last week. If they can get to him, they sure can get to Musharraf. Could this be why Musharraf said sayonara for now? Certainly possible too! IMHO, he is just making the rounds to collect his prizes for his "cooperation".

Who knows what develops? All I know is many innocents will die as they always do, we'll be creating a whole lot more suicide bombers than the ones we kill, and we will learn to live with terrorism.

Grab the popcorn, movie is just starting:(
