Don't Blame Me says Baitullah Mehsud.

Unh-huh.

"I had nothing to do with it," Mehsud said by satellite phone from an undisclosed location about the attack on Ms Bhutto's motorcade.

He just listed her '3 Major offenses against Islamists' and views this as a kickoff to their latest campaign against the evil Shatan.

Militant leader Baitullah Mehsud had instructed pro-al-Qaeda cells in Karachi to kill her for three major offenses against the Islamists, which he listed as:

She is the only opposition politician who supported the military attack earlier this year on Islamabad's Lal Masjid (Red Mosque), a hotbed of Islamist radicalism, and she coninues to condemn the Lal Masjid ideologues;

She has stated that she would allow incursions by US forces into Pakistan in pursuit of Osama bin Laden;

She has stated that she would allow the International Atomic Energy Agency to question Dr A Q Khan, the former leading nuclear scientist accused of passing Pakistani nuclear technology to anti-Western countries.

I don't know - it all sounds good to me...
