This item on the Washington Post web site is dated 26th December, the day before the assassination of Benazir Bhutto.

Now, a new agreement, reported when it was still being negotiated last month, has been finalized. And the first U.S. personnel could be on the ground in Pakistan by early in the new year, according to Pentagon sources.
