ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - Pakistan's new president, Asif Ali Zardari, put the "war on terror" at the top of his agenda and signaled a major thawing in relations with Afghanistan Tuesday at a swearing-in ceremony where Afghan leader Hamid Karzai shared center stage. As Zardari was inaugurated, President Bush promised to send thousands more troops to Afghanistan and told Pakistan it had a "responsibility" to fight extremists "because every nation has an obligation to govern its own territory and make certain that it does not become a safe haven for terror." Zardari, 53, took his oath of office in a short but emotional ceremony in the vast presidential palace in Islamabad, with a portrait of his assassinated wife, Benazir Bhutto, on one side and a picture of her father, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Pakistan's first elected leader, on the other. * http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/world/5992718.htmlBenazir Bhutto (Sindhi: بينظير ڀٽو, Urdu: بینظیر بھٹو, IPA: [beËnÉ™ziËɾ bɦʊʈËoË]) (June 21, 1953 - December 27, 2007) was a Pakistani politician who chaired the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), a centre-left political party in Pakistan.
