"Musharraf Has Attempted To Put Up A Smokescreen Of Action"
"The key question is whether the US backs off from its overcommitment to Pakistan. If the US were to back off from this...lionising of Musharraf, it will (greatly) affect the psychology in New Delhi."

PRESS BRIEFING
'It Will Take Action, Further Action'
At their second press conference in less than 24 hours, the two "friends" ("Jaswant" and "Colin") say little that is new -- "some ideas" apparently were about rhetoric and language and such like, and of course the talk to be walked.

 TELECAST SPEECH FULL TEXT
PERVEZ MUSHARRAF
Diplomacy And The Domestic Constituency
Adroitly juggling his words, denouncing terrorism (and significantly not equating it with 'freedom struggle'), announcing significant policy changes in 'national interest', Musharraf quotes Vajpayee's musings, bans LeT and JeM but refuses to consider handing over any Pakistani to India and harps on Kashmir.
