Don't Panic Don't Panic: What's next for the U.S. and Pakistan?
Posted by Andisheh Nouraee on Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 2:24 PM
What's next for the United States and Pakistan now that Musharraf is gone?
Last month, I took my first vacation from writing this column in seven years.
Before I left, I asked one favor of the cosmos: Don't let any big-deal, easy-to-snark-about, world-affairs-type thingies happen while I'm away.
While I was gone, not only did Russia invade Georgia (the Stalin one, not the Rhett Butler one), but the United States and Iraq are negotiating major U.S. troop reductions and Pervez "The Perv" Musharraf quit Pakistan's presidency under threat of impeachment.
Screw you, too, cosmos.
