Week 45 - General Pervez Musharraf (the Eight of Spades) ![]() Week 45 - and General Pervez Musharraf, who siezed power in a military coup in Pakistan in 1999, but yet is still an ally in the War on Terror, was in the news this week for declaring emergency rule in Pakistan, imposing a State of Emergency, suspending the Constitution, firing the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, postponing next years presidential elections and putting rival and former president Benazir Bhutto under house arrest. Edit (27 Dec 2007): Small change as I realised I'd included two Ace of Spades, and no Eight. Remedied now.

Week 43 - King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia (The Two of Spades) ![]() Week 43, and for the Two of Spades it's King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, who this week was preparing to visit the UK for the first visit of a Saudi monarch in 20 years. The visit was contraversial for a number of reasons, from Saudi Arabia's disregard for human rights and use of capital punishment, the recent (conveniently dropped) enquiry into British Aerospace's and the Government's dealing with the country, and the King's comments on the 7/7 London bombers.
