When it comes to the country of Pakistan I still wonder if it's an ally or not. Musharraf is an odd character. Part dictator and part ally against the war on terror. He is almost Stalinesque in his stature.
It's funny that his rise in power was based on a military coup. Wasn't that similar to how Castro gained his power. IMHO a dictator is a dictator and NONE of them are any good despite their rhetoric about Democracy which never seems to come true (think Chavez).
What are your thoughts on Pakistan? I guess we need every ally we can get but dang...wish we didn't have to go to prom with the ugly chick.
