| Tribesmen want Uzbeks to leave their area |
| 2007-10-23 |
| A rift has been developed between the locals and Uzbeks in North Waziristan as “the locals believe foreign fighters are responsible for the recent killings of villagers”, sources told APP on Monday. It has also been learnt that the locals are planning to call a jirga to announce a deadline for the foreigners to leave the area. “The locals say they will use arms to flush the foreigners out of the area if they fail to meet the deadline,” the sources said. The Ahmad Zai Wazir tribe from South Waziristan and local Taliban who are supporting the government have announced a one-week deadline for those who fled with foreign militants to come back before a jirga or face action. The deadline was set at a jirga at Rustam Adda in Wana on Monday. Hundred of tribesmen from Ahmadzai tribe and the local Taliban attended the jirga. Elders of the Ahmadzai tribe said stern action would be taken if the tribesmen who fled did not come before the jirga. |

| #4 I'm looking forward to the Uzbek's dreaded "Spring Offensive" on Waziristan. |

| #3 Didn't they have this problem last year? I believe they solved it by creating a lotta dead Uzbeks. |

Especially since the Talibs have disavowed the Butto Bomb. heh, it works for us either way, Talibs lying or not.
