Musharraf says Afghanistan undermining Pakistan
http://feeds.bignewsnetwork.com/?sid=88ba5b5f82a5dc44

Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf is lashing out at elements in Afghanistan's government he says are trying to lay all the blame on his country for failing to capture wanted al-Qaida terrorist leader Osama bin Laden.

More than four years have passed since the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States stunned Americans and grabbed world headlines. Although the mastermind behind the attacks, Saudi-born Osama bin Laden, has not been caught, he is believed to be hiding out in the mountainous region near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. There have been frequent clashes on both sides of the border with suspected al-Qaida and Taleban militants.

During his trip to South Asia, where he stopped in both Afghanistan and Pakistan, President Bush noted both countries are involved in efforts to catch bin Laden.

'I am confident he will be brought to justice,' said President Bush. 'What is happening is that we have got U.S. forces on the hunt, not only for bin Laden, but anyone who plots and plans with bin Laden. There are Afghan forces on the hunt for, not only bin Laden, but those who plot and plan with him. We have got Pakistan forces on the hunt.'

1. Musharraf is full of shit
What a disingenuous bastard.

It's been widely confirmed that Pakistan has been meddling with Afghanistan for decades. His country set up the Taliban. And the ISI and tthe military has never let up their support of fundamentalism.

The US made a deal with the devil. It's clear that Mushy cannot be trusted.

And now we're seen the results - I recall hearing this morning that the Taliban elements are its strongest since '01 when it was 'toppled'.
