[Dawn] US Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Admiral Mike Mullen on Wednesday told the Wall Street Journal that attacks against US soldiers in Afghanistan will not be tolerated, DawnNews reported.Does that mean the people remotely pulling the trigger will be Seal Teamed even if they live in Islamabad? Is Hamid Gul's life on the line? Is Qazi's guesthouse a drone target? Is something unfortunate waiting to happen to Fazl? Should Siraj ul-Haq not start any long books?
He stated that the partnership approach between the US and Pakistain would be hard to revive now.
Two men went into business making cheese. Sam provided money, planning, technical expertise, plant maintenance, and lunch. Joe rented the factory to the partnership and provided access across his own land to the railhead for a second fee. Sometimes he would sell raw materials to the partnership, though not on a regular basis because most of his large family professed to hate Sam and all his works.
One day the factory was attacked by vicious bandidos and for a price Joe helped repair the damage. One day it was discovered that the leader of the bandidos was openly living in Joe's basement with a couple hookers, though Joe said he knew nothing about it. A little later the plant manager was bumped off by people living in Joe's guest house. Joe actually had several guesthouses on his estate, and he got really angry when Sam wanted him to clean them out.
Can this marriage be saved?
Mullen told the WSJ that the US will be very firm in its approach with Pakistain and its battle against terrorism. He said that he believed that Pakistain's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) had supported the Haqqani network, which is the jihad boy group the US blames for the Kabul attack. Mullen blamed the ISI for providing "logistic support" to the Haqqani network.
He said the US wanted a strong relationship with Pakistain, however, given the current situation, it will take time to restore those relations and trust.
