This would be because the Pakistan army waited so long to do anything to control the abusive behavior of the students at the Lal Masjid Madrassah. They wonder why Musharraf's regime would wait so long. In fact, they point out that Musharraf's support, such as it is, comes from the more conservative Islamist elements of the society. If this is so, Musharraf is in deeper trouble because the Army's attack on the mosque has prompted open rebellion in the tribal areas, where the Taliban and al Qaeda are in control.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
