Back in Pakistan

The ex-Prime Minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto made her return to Pakistan last week after leaving in self imposed exile for eight years. Huge crowds of people greeted her when she arrived. She vows to return to power and restore democracy to Pakistan and remove its image as a safe zone for terrorists. This is great news for the U.S. and our search for Bin Laden. The current leader isn't doing enough in the tribal regions where he is most likely hiding. He also hasn't allowed our troops to enter Pakistan. I think Bhutto will be very helpful in the fight against terrorism in that region. The people seem to love her and she seems to be Pro-America. Bhutto is planning on running for re-election or accepting a power-sharing deal with current President Musharraf. Musharraf is suffering from approval ratings almost as good as Bush's and a deal with Bhutto would allow him to stay in power. The USA for now continues to support Musharraf but I think only because he is in power for now and we need his help fighting terrorist. However the U.S. and Bhutto are criticizing him for his handling of the tribal regions of Pakistan where al-Quida still thrives. Bhutto would do a much better job in Pakistan than Musharraf, she is a woman leading an Islamic country, which in itself is a major step in closing the gap between Western Nations and Islamic, and she is Pro-Democratic. Setting up a democracy in the Middle East also makes the West seem less far away to them so extremist won't grow in those nations to hate the West if they are more like us.
