Wipeout of the Khyber Taliban continues, says Islamabad   
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,549532,00.html (from AP)

All this bad news for the Wahhabis will be reaching Zawahiri by radio, I 
presume. He used to be able to listen in on Fazlullah's covert FM station, 
but it has been eliminated. The Pakistanis are behind Zardari and General 
Kayani in a way that they were never behind Musharref. Zawahiri has a real 
hate on for Kayani. Meanwhile Musharref is now in London, where his 
accommodation and protection are costing the UK 25,000 pounds per day, I am 
told.

Sounds like par for the course, though I have no reason at all to believe
your unsubstantiated figures.

While many Pakistanis hated Musharref, he was hailed and praised as a great
partner in the so-called War on Terror by the UK, US and others, despite
seizing power through a military coup, running a dictatorship, and being
generally apposed to that 'democracy' the UK and US demanded of others.

Despite the hypocrisy, all dictators have to go somewhere when they are
ultimately deposed, one cannot expect a country to abandon its so-called
"good friends", and so it seems we're lumbered with him. I'm sure other
countries have their share of the deposed.

On the plus side, it does seem he purchased the accommodation himself and is
paying his own way, though we have to foot security costs. It may be an
expensive and  posh flat, but I'm not sure the area it's in can be called
salubrious.

22 more dead in a remote part of Khyber. One Pakistani patriot lost his life 
in this action.

There is a local Pakistani TV report that seven Maldivians of al-Qa'ida 
persuasion have been arrested somewhere in Pakistan. According to that 
report, Islamabad will try to find out who recruited them. The obvious 
possibility is the Arab billionaires and their affiliated clerics who 
support al-Qa'ida everywhere. I'll bet these Maldivians, if they are for 
real, were previously in KSA on Hajj visas.
