Yes, we're still here.
I apologize for falling somewhat behind on DotW. I've been busy out there in the real world, and should have time for blogging again very soon.
As for dictator news, it's all Pervez Musharraf all the time lately, isn't it? I don't have very much to add on the man himself, but I'm certainly bemused by the editorial spin that paints the man as a creature of the Bush administration. Perhaps people have forgotten that America has, and forever will, back whichever dictator is holding the reins in Pakistan?

The pro-Pakistan tilt of American foreign policy is the result of the big mouth of Indira Ghandi. Her son made great strides in repairing the damage.
In the 80's India and Greece were reviled almost as much as France for the midless anti American temper tantrums of their leaders. Sarkozy and Merkel have made great efforts to
fix the strained relationships caused by politicians attempting to
placate a vocal minority.
In France it also helped that the month long riots were not abated by
a foreign policy of apeasement and reflexive anti- Israel obsessions.
Too many tyrants are getting a free pass these days. Time to get back to work, Roger.
