US rejects new Pakistani government intended talks with militants
2008-03-27 17:22:00 America is the center of the world! How could Pakistani dare have a different view? So what is Bush going to do? I suppose he could finance a Musharraf coup. M&C A senior US official on Thursday opposed the new Pakistani government's intended talks with pro-Taliban militants who have launched a series of suicide attacks on security forces in recent months. 'I don't see how you can talk to those kind of people,' said US Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte, adding they 'want to destroy our way of life.' [Whose way of life? US or Pakistani?] The visiting envoy said the 'extremist threat' in Pakistan is a cause of great concern. 'It occurs not only in federally administered tribal areas but it has spread to the settled areas,' he told reporters in the southern city of Karachi at the end of his four-day visit to the country. Pakistan's tribal areas are believed to be safe havens for al- Qaeda and Taliban militants, who fled to the area after the United States inv...

Pakistani Government's reponse raises troubling questions
2008-01-01 17:52:00 The Pakistani government is raising a lot more questions than it is providing answers in the wake of the assassination of Benazir Bhutto. Bhutto herself sent an e-mail to be released in the event of her assassination that blames Pakistan's leader, Pervez Musharrif, who she believed was behind blocking a request to have the FBI and Scotland Yard investigate a bombing at one of her rallies on October 18, and subsequent moves to reduce her security when she had asked for more. It does seem very likely that the bombing was carried out (as claimed) by radical Islamists, almost certainly associated with al-Qaeda. I don't buy into the theory that some in Pakistan and a few in the United States have claimed that Pakistani security were directly involved and tried to make it look like al-Qaeda because 1. that ascribes to them a level of competence and sophistication that frankly they don't have; 2. it is hard to imagine Pervez Musharrif inspiring a suicide bomber to give up his life for...

RoP Clashes with Pakistani Government
2007-07-03 16:54:00 The fanatics of the infamous Red Mosque in Islamabad are fighting in the streets with Pakistani troops; at least 12 are dead so far. ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, July 3 — A long-simmering standoff between the government and a radical mosque in the heart of the Pakistani capital exploded into a vicious street clash on Tuesday that left at least 12 dead and dozens more injured. The clash began in the early afternoon and was continuing into the evening. Heavy gunfire echoed across the normally tranquil capital. Elite government troops fired tear gas canisters to disperse a crowd of thousands who had gathered to show support to the leaders of the pro-Taliban Red Mosque and an affiliated religious school, or madrassa. Based on early reports, the dead included at least two soldiers, two students, one or two journalists and several bystanders. The fighting appeared to have started after madrassa students wielding sticks ransacked several government buildings located adjacent to the mosque...

Pakistani government's version of events in Waziristan
2007-03-29 08:20:00 Bruce Pannier comments on the situation in Waziristan. He writes :"While reports say that more than 150 people have been killed this month in Waziristan in fighting between Uzbek militants and local tribesmen, it is difficult to obtain precise information on events in an area where the Pakistani government has almost no presence and exerts little influence.The Pakistani government is calling the fierce fighting in its South Waziristan tribal area between local tribesmen and foreign militants a successful example of Islamabad's controversial policies there.But not everyone is convinced the Pakistani government's version of events in Waziristan is the whole story. And in Afghanistan and the neighboring Central Asian countries, the fighting in Waziristan is of great concern as it could soon affect the security situations in those countries." rferl.org has more...Haji Sharif, an aide to to Maulvi Nazir told reporters in Wana :?We will continue our ...
