#1 'Pakistan interfering in Afghanistan' They must be true to their ancient traditions.

President Karzai, you might want to start building a fence. India should have good advice on what style best keeps out Pakistani enthusiasts.

#2 President Hamid Karzai accused Pakistan of interfering in Afghanistan's internal affairs,

Upping the heat.

#5 Pakwakiland interferes in everyone's internal affairs.

Except, oddly, their own. Those they have no influence over.

#6 Maybe, if you give Perv another F15, he'll stop.

#7 It's not Perv, it's the ISI boys who would like him out of power.

#8 TT, do a net search on Perv's millitary career.

#9 Yeah, yeah, I know.

But right now, it's the ISI guys pushing past the limits while Perv tries desperately to straddle the fence. Sure it would be grand if he were a staunch ally. But he's a useful tool to some degree as is -- and certainly better than the ISI boys.

Until we have deep military and political ties with a resurgent India and have stabilized Afghanistan, Pakistan is geopolitically crucial for us. Perv is probably the best we could get there. Not saying much, I know ....

#10 I disagree RC. I think the Paks like chaos. They have so much that they can export it to everyone.

#11 Good point, Spot! Man, I sure hope the heat gets turned up and fast in this area. It's sad to me that the US media has basically forgotten about Afghanistan and Paki-waki. This is a vital front in the WoT.
