<b>'Hammer' Musharraf if he doesn't live up to his word: Armitage to US</b><!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Washington, November 7: A former top Bush administration official, who once allegedly threatened to bomb Pakistan âback to the stone ageâ, has said if President Pervez Musharraf âdoes not live up to the wordâ he gave post-9/11 attacks, the US would have to âhammerâ him.
"I, personally, have a high regard for President Musharraf and what he's done, what he's personally suffered, and, by the way, what his country has suffered in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas -- 800 or so killed, now 300 other soldiers captured and missing. So he's sacrificed a good bit," former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage said at a Congressional hearing.
