KARACHI - Benazir Bhutto, just weeks after returning from years of exile to take part in the United States-sponsored master plan for her to share power with President General Pervez Musharraf, has launched a scathing attack on the general, demanding that he step down unconditionally.
"It is time for him to go. He must quit as president," the former premier was quoted as saying on Tuesday from behind the barbed wire that is keeping her under house arrest at her residence in Lahore.
The remarkable falling out between Bhutto and Musharraf since he declared a state of emergency nearly two weeks ago on the surface dashes all US hopes for a stable democratic government in Pakistan amenable to Washington's dictates in the "war on terror". Syed Saleem Shahzad
