Greta Von Sustern had the Pakistani FOX consultant on last night. He said that the church bombing indicated complicity of the Pakistani police and secret service with the bomber. He said that the area where the church is located is usually very secure and that no one could get in or out of the area without being stopped. He said that it is an indication that Musharraf is losing control, that the terrorists have told him that if he wants to keep power that he will have to give in to their demands. He also said that we should note that on the same day as the bombing, Musharraf released all the radicals that he had previously arrested.

Musharraf has called for a sort of early election and guaruntee of a five year term for his presidency, instead of waiting for the fall election. This is probably so that he can reassert some authority, but until then, he cannot protect Americans.

Didn't Musharraf take power through a coup?

He was never elected and elections are no guarantee for power.
