Musharraf Says Raids In Kashmir Have Ended (washingtonpost.com)

I don't know that I believe him. And even if he's telling the truth, it comes down to it all he's saying is "We aren't sponsoring any raids right now, that I know of." I think it's pretty clear where my sympathies lie here.

Only the United States, Musharraf said, can help. "They must help. They can bring normalcy here. They must resolve this dispute. And they must ensure balance in the region."

Come on. Why do we have to do everything? Anyway, if we're so awful and untrustworthy -- like everyone says -- why is it that everyone trusts us to solve their problems? And when did we go from being the world's policeman -- which was bad enough -- to the world's flipping guidance counselor?
