How to make money in Pakistan if you're a woman

Here's how according to President Musharraf:

"You must understand the environment in Pakistan. This has become a money-making concern," he said.

"A lot of people say if you want to go abroad and get a visa for Canada or citizenship and be a millionaire, get yourself raped."

As quoted in the Washington Post.

This from the leader of Pakistan - a nuclear power; America's ally. This is what we sold him recently for helping us with Al Quaeda:

F-16 fighter aircraft (nuclear capable).
P3C Maritime Surveillance and Anti-Submarine Warfare aircraft.
PHALANX Close-In Weapon Systems for Pakistan's naval ships.
TOW-2A anti-tank missiles-2000
TOW-2A (Fly to Buy) missiles.
VULCAN gun systems.

The question is, can we trust our leaders?
