For those of you who do not follow the news very much or possibly you follow only selective portions of the news because in this day and age local political and geopolitical news is so immense that Joe American must pick and choose the news to follow as one perceives the effect the information has on our interests or lives.
Thus here is a tidbit of news you may have heard or not heard of: old Usama bin Laden (UBL) from location unknown but probably the Waziristan region of Northern Pakistan created an audio message to Pakistanis proclaiming President Pervez Musharraf as an a fakir (infidel) and a shirk (polytheist). Due to this proclamation Pakistanis should rise up and depose and assassinate Musharraf.
Also the audio addressed the Pakistan military to stand down and do nothing as the people rise up to through out the American loving apostate Musharraf.
Since the thrill of hearing UBL for the first time in years is wearing off the news coverage of the implications of how this may affect Pakistan and vis-a-vie the United States has somewhat worn off.
Steve Schippert writing for ThreatsWatch.org offers a remarkable analysis of Pakistan’s potential future which would not be good for America. Schippert believes Al-Qaeda has been operating a patient campaign to win the allegiance of various tribal territories in Pakistan. The Musharraf signing away of government control of Waziristan is an example of Al-Qaeda/Taliban interests gaining autonomous victory over the Pakistan military.
Here is something to think about that Schippert may not have known when writing his Pakistan threat analysis: Former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto intends to return to Pakistan after being in exile since 1999. Benazir is the daughter of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. Ali Bhutto served both as President and Prime Minister of Pakistan. Ali Bhutto was quite popular with the Pakistani people, however the will to retain power led to a clash of wills with other ethnic elites in Pakistan led to Ali Bhutto’s demise. In a dubious trial that was considered rigged by Bhutto ethnic enemies found him guilty of corruption and murder. The military dictator of the time General Zia-ul-Hak made the execution was carried out.
Daughter Benazir Bhutto has also been popular, yet unproven accusations by the Bhutto family enemies had her deposed for charges of corruption. There is an underlying implication that Benazir’s exile is ending to counter the growing popularity of radical Islam in Pakistan. The Pakistan military and Musharraf have not publicly welcomed her back. Nawaz Sharif is another deposed Prime Minister who was sent back into exile to Saudi Arabia has Benazir not to trust Musharraf. Time will tell just how desperate Musharraf is.
Waziristan is a region in Pakistan. The Pakistani government of Pervez Musharraf signed an Accord not to long ago with Islamofascist warlords of the area. In essence Musharraf gave governing autonomy to the Terrorist elements of the Taliban and al Qaeda residing in Waziristan while Pakistan maintains a dubious official sovereignty.
Now that you are caught up, check this out. The Islamofascists in Waziristan are fighting an internecine war among themselves over local issues of who is in charge of what. The solidarity of radical Mohammedanism takes a back seat to the bread and butter of what makes the locals happy.
Now isn’t that a piece of hypocrisy the Mainstream Media rarely publishes. Radical Mohammedanism’s greatest complaint against the West is the potential influence of immoral culture (actually they have a point there); thus Islamofascists berate Democracy as a mode to perpetuate immorality (a point they DO NOT have).
Yet when it comes down to controlling food, probable illegal drugs for profit and the needs and support of various locals; then typical Western Machiavellian politics reigns supreme in perpetuating means to justify murderous ends amongst themselves.
The Fourth Rail has an article written by Bill Roggio regarding the Religion of Peace in Waziristan – READ IT.

Obviously al Qaeda and the Taliban are dominating the Waziristan region of Pakistan. To the credit of the Democratic Party dominated Senate, there is a suggestion that America should attack known terrorist and terrorist training camps within Pakistan.
A Pakistani envoy has warned that such action might topple the Musharraf dictatorship that has been playing Islamists and America so far to America’s benefit. The implication being an American attack on Terrorist stronghold’s within might topple Musharraf. Such demise would portend an Islamist take over of already nuclear Pakistan.
So the question becomes do we attack monsters directly responsible for 9/11 or protect a Mohammedan asset in Musharraf?
