#1 To my untutored eye, this does not sound like good news. But perhaps todays attack on Perv will get his gander up and he'll take the attack to the harliners.

Anyone with more savvy of the situation in Pakland care to comment?

#2 It ties in nicely with the assasination attempts of the past couple of days, i think the pashtun (the warrior tribe that was and is in fact the Taleban) are making an effort to take control of the pakistan army.

#3 The agreement is seen as a way to partially appease the Islamic opposition.

Lots of luck to you there...
