This is an escalation of degree that goes far beyond the previous US air-attacks on the country.
It also means the US was going to knife Musharraf in the back, once Bhutto was in. Maybe he saw it coming. Maybe others saw it to. I can see the list of people who wanted Bhutto dead growing by the hour.
Meanwhile: A serious setback to US policy: Who can they get now to invite US troops into the country?
Maybe they will just go in anyway.
But this is going to cost. In more ways than one. The Fates are kind.
It's all sad that this Bhutto saga was kind of expected. But only cynics in power seem to know what to do in this shock, and how to do it.
But I don't expect him to last long now.
It looks like the US will be opening another front in its endless war, one way or another. The Fates are kind.
