Pervez Musharraf: “Policies don't change with personalities. Policies have national interests, and policies depend on an environment.”

It is a new, more forceful step in Pakistan's crackdown on Islamic extremism. President Pervez Musharraf says all foreign students in religious schools there, madrasas, will be thrown out of the country, even those with dual nationality.

That is a ridiculous idea and I don't contribute at all; anyone who thinks like that is absolutely and 100 percent wrong.

As long as Osama is at large, Dr. Zawahiri is at large, Musharraf thinks that he will continue to rule this country with the full blessings of the U.S.

They want the politics backed, democratic politics. They don't want a military dictator, which they feel he's become.
