'US won't back another military govt in Pakistan'
Dennis Kux, author of two acclaimed books on US relations with Pakistan and India, said in a comment on the possibility of martial law in Pakistan that the US will not support a military government unless it quickly sets a date for new elections.Kux said it is his feeling that Musharrafs compass has lost its bearing and is flying around in all directions. Kux, a retired US ambassador who began his career with a posting in Pakistan, told Daily Times, On Monday he [Musharraf] says X, Tuesday the opposite and Wednesday something else. Given the legal constraints on what Musharrafs wants to do because of the Supreme Court fiasco and the shift in public attitudes, he has no good choices from his perspective.
