Q Well, how about this element -- if true, your comment about Pakistan not doing enough -- all countries not doing enough in the war on terror -- would it then be true to say that Pakistan is actually hurting the effort along the border, at least elements inside that country?
MS. PERINO: I'm not prepared to say that from here. You can check around to other agencies and see if they would be. I think that when it comes to Prime Minister Gillani and President Bush, they are of one mind that the -- that al Qaeda and the terrorists pose a threat not just to the United States, but to Pakistanis, as well. And they saw that firsthand when Prime Minister Bhutto was assassinated.
We are going to continue to work with them. We are trying to work with their military. We've had good relationships with Pakistan over the years. But this is a tense time for everybody, as we work to do more to combat terrorism. Jennifer.
