Negroponte fails to deliver

They sent him to Pakistan because increasingly irrelevant US Secretary of State Conocoleezza Rice was viewed as too week to deal with "The General" but John Negroponte is to return to Washington with nothing to show for his efforts. Musharraf clearly recognises that the US has painted themselves into his corner and have nowhere else to go trapped as they are between the country's nuclear arsenal and increasingly powerful Islamic fundamentalists.

Yes Virgina. The world will be a safer place.
