Pakistan disappointed by Trump’s accusations of supporting terrorism
Talk to us when Hafiz Saeed is dead.
[Iran Press TV] Pakistain has voiced its "disappointment" over remarks made by US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
, while denying accusations of its support for terrorist groups.
No support at all for Jaish-e-Muhammad, nor Lashkar-e-Taiba, nor the Taliban, and -- as Pervez Musharraf assured us many times --
Osama bin Laden wasn't in Pakistain. Omar Saeed Sheikh and all the rest of Daniel Pearl's murderers are dead.

"No country in the world has suffered more than Pakistain from the scourge of terrorism, often perpetrated from outside our borders. It is, therefore disappointing that the US policy statement ignores the enormous sacrifices rendered by the Pak nation in this effort," said a statement released by Pakistain’s Foreign Ministry on Tuesday.

The statement was released after Trump said Washington can no longer remain silent about Pakistain providing "safe havens for terrorists."

#1 "We have been paying Pakistan billions and billions of dollars at the same time they are housing the very terrorists that we are fighting…That will have to change and that will change immediately,"

So it might follow that we've been funding our own enemy. What a novel approach to 'endless wars.' To the issue of Pakistan Frontier Corps facilitating Taliban activity along the Durand Line and the border areas, I can assure you there can be no question.

#2 Now, the funny thing about this is that if you put them on polygraph, you'd see they really believe it.

#5 The statement was released after Trump said Washington can no longer remain silent about Pakistain providing "safe havens for terrorists."

It's more than just "safe havens".

#6 Thanks, Besoeker. Are you sure Abbotabad isn't in India or Japan or Australia? Maybe even Saudi Arabia? Antarctica maybe? Well, wherever it may be, surely his safe house wouldn't be within a stone's throw of a military base. That would be too obvious.
