‘Pakistan sanctuary for Qaeda, Taliban’
2003-12-26
Guerrillas from Afghanistan’s ousted Taliban militia and the Al Qaeda network it once sheltered are using Pakistan as a sanctuary, the US ambassador to Afghanistan said on Wednesday. Speaking at a police graduation ceremony, Zalmay Khalizad also said senior Al Qaeda members including Osama Bin Laden and his deputy, Ayman al-Zawahri, Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar and Afghan warlord Gulbuddin Hekmatyar must be brought to justice. “The remnants of extremist Taliban, Al Qaeda and Hekmatyar want to take Afghanistan to the bad old days,” Khalilzad said. “They use Pakistan as sanctuary.”The Taliban and Hekmatyar have declared a “jihad”, or holy war, against US forces in Afghanistan and US-backed President Hamid Karzai.
And they want to kill Perv. Maybe that'll cause him to get off the stick and hit them hard.
