A Stooge.... Letter in Daily Nation,Lahore,Pakistan

When stooges act upPakistan has offered to help solve the Middle East problem if the parties agree. On the other hand people who know Pakistan’s standing in the area laugh at this offer. Pakistan should better its relations with India before talking loud. This offer (more of a claim) smacks of a desire to win cheap popularity. The Arab world knows very well that Pakistan is now the number one stooge of the USA. They know Musharraf is making these claims just to be endeared to Isreal. -ZULFIQAR ALI BUTT, Lamar, USA, via e-mail, May 21.
