| US can force Pak to end terror, says Advani |
| 2002-06-05 |
| Ahead of the visit of two top American officials to India and Pakistan, Home Minister L K Advani has said the international community must force Pakistan to end cross-border terrorism for good. Advani said the international community still had the power to avert a military conflict. "If Washington decides to force Pakistan, it will do it." That's about a damned dumbass statement. The U.S. can no more "force" Pakistan to do something than it can "force" India to do something. The best it could do, assuming the will to do so, is make Pak wish it had. |

| #2 Pakistan relies heavily on US support. We can definitely see 'multiple standards' being followed in the 'War against terrorism'. Remember the quote: 'Those harboring terrorists are as bad as being terrorists'? Afghanistan is bombed, Pakistan is given lots of aid, and a few warnings. |

| #1 Advani's wife is the smart one in that couple. Advani himself is usually a watt or two short of a dim bulb. |
