And this perspective will be a problem for Musharraf -- he's supposed to be the "security and stability" option, right? But if he can guarantee neither security nor stability.... no surprise he will be blamed, either by people who think he's directly responsible or by those who hold him responsible for the overall security climate in Pakistan.
And on that, they have a point.
"What's worse, that Musharaff may have had a role in this or that he was powerless to stop it?"

A reporter on the Swedish radio described how things had been when she was travelling with Butto a few months ago.
Chaos everywhere. Trampling estathic crowds, pushing, hugging Butto so hard she lost her breath, shouting as loud as they could in her ears and so on. She didn't seem to mind in the least, nor did her aides or the soldiers escorting them.
So, the idea that they cared much about security is not really relevant. Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.
