Well I think Bush has expressed his thanks for Pakistan's help many, many times but the truth is Pakistan could do more. The reason it doesn't is because of their internal politics. We just have to work with them and work around them.
Yes, indeed.
Musharraf is a military dictator. He does not have full control of the packy ISI. If free elections were held in Pakistan, the islamofacists would gain control and all hell would break loose in that area of the world. We need to be grateful for his help, such as it is.
