Eric Margolis On Pakistan, Musharraf, Benazir Bhutto And More ...

Boy, have we been blinking busy lately.

So tonight we thought we'd take some 'feet up,' time off.

But before we bugger off to bed for a rare early night, we'd like you meet
Mr Eric Margolis - a genuine journalist.

If you've recently been puzzled and/or perplexed regarding the (almost revolutionary like), public protests in Pakistan, then Eric Margolis is a man you need to read.

Here's a taste of what he wants us all to know.

I’ve been in regular contact with former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.

She calls the situation `grim.’
Obviously, the former female PM is referring to her country's current leader, military dictator General Pervez Musharraf, and his most recent show of megalomaniacal madness.

Here's another tasty teaser to tempt you.

Anyone who still wonders why so many people in the Muslim World hate the west needs look no further than Pakistan, where, in the name of `democracy’ and `counter-terrorism’ Washington and London are stirring a witches brew of dictatorship, intrigue and violence.
Read all of Margolis' extremely enlightening article.
