Pakistan

[UPDATE2] President Bush has warned Pakistan that it risks losing US aide if it fails to act against al Qaeda operating in the tribal areas. “For the time being, officials say, the White House has ruled out unilateral strikes against the training camps that American spy satellites are monitoring in North Waziristan… The fear is that such strikes would result in … a ‘shock to the stability’ of General Musharraf™s government.”
