President Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan has admitted that some Pakistani madrasas, or religious schools were connected to "extremism and terrorism" in the wake of the London bombings.
Mr Musharraf's remarks seemed unremarkable enough: he was only stating what many commentators have been saying for a long time. But they were worthy of note as only a few days before, the Pakistani ambassador to the UN, Munir Akram, dismissed out of hand any responsibility - however tenuous - Pakistan might have for the bombings in London.
