Post #12,219 by bepatient 10/8/01 10:55:15 AM Reply	Interview with Pakistan "President"... ...last night (around 3am)...let to some very interesting insights. 1) He felt that this operation would be very short. A day or 2. 2) He was not at all supportive of assistance to the Northern Allaince. 3) He seems to believe that there will be a transition in Afghani government that will be more "populist" 4) He urged the west for more than just humanitarian aid...he wants to help Afghanistan rebuild itself..recover its agriculture and become more self-sustaining. Very enlightening...and on CNN...so every once and a while you can get some balance on US tv. You were born...and so you're free...so Happy Birthday! _{Laurie Anderson} [link\|mailto:bepatient@aol.com\|BePatient]

He may have taken power in a coup (he was a powerful army general on a return fligh to Pakistan when the Govt refused to grant landing rights he had the civilian plane land at a nearby military airfield then went & arrested the prime minister who gave the order not to let his plane land) but he is winning a lot of plaudits.
