Uh-oh. Musharraf's stepped into it now!

pointing out the truth doesn't earn you any points whatsoever in the bush administration...

In a speech to the European Parliament’s foreign affairs committee on Tuesday, Pakistan's President General Pervez Musharraf blamed the United States and the West for "breeding terrorism in his country by bringing in thousands of mujahideen to fight the Soviet Union in Afghanistan and then leaving Pakistan alone a decade later to face the armed warriors..."

tsk, tsk, tsk, pervez... NOW who's gonna sell you weapons systems and fighter jets...
