On the other hand, maybe he isn't that bright.

And enough for the central government to buy control of those provinces as well as Bin Laden's head on a big shish kabob.

I agree with you that the Bhuttos are corrupt, though I would have thought their take was more than SFr 20 m. But I certainly don't think that's enough for the central government to buy control of those provinces. Pakistan -- and the British before them -- would pay a lot more for the privilege.
