Karzai reportedly suspects US hand in recent Afghanistan attacks

[Developereo]

I heard Pakistan doesn't want the U.S. to pack up. Because that could lead to Taliban take over of Pakistan.

You shouldn't confuse comedy shows with news shows.

PS. Although, with Fox News, it's hard to tell the difference...

whatever might happen will be an internal matter. if Karzai is confident of his decision, then who are you to hold him back? instead we see the US, an uninvited bad forcing guest, now, as we speak, turning up the region upside down for its own interest through drone strikes (theoretically a good thing, practically bad. it provokes the taliban etc. to retaliate against whom? exactly, most of the time its fellow countrymen instead of the US, but the muslim casualties dont matter in the west, right?) and deepening the sunni-shia conflict through playing the saudi/arab and iran card against each other for extra benefits.

No one can dare to talk against policy even American thought has been hijacked By Israeli Think tank.

Pakistan urges U.S. to tread carefully in Afghan withdrawal

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A senior Pakistani official urged the United States on Monday to ensure the U.S. military withdrawal from Afghanistan does not leave a vacuum that threatens regional stability and Pakistan's own security.

"Although the war in Afghanistan may be winding down, just as in the past, Pakistan will have to face the brunt of any instability that may engulf Afghanistan after 2014," said Sartaj Aziz, Pakistan's national security and foreign affairs adviser.

Aziz and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry delivered prepared remarks before opening discussions in Washington that are part of a 'strategic dialogue,' which have sought to move bilateral relations beyond crisis-driven security concerns to cooperation on trade, energy and education.

The United States has long said that violence in its long war in Afghanistan has been driven in part by militants' ability to rest and resupply in western Pakistan. American ties with Pakistan have been further strained by U.S. drone strikes against militants in Pakistan.

Kerry paid tribute to the high price Pakistan has paid in fighting extremism.

"I think few have suffered more at the hands of terrorists and extremists than people in Pakistan," Kerry said.

With violence in Afghanistan continuing, including a January 17 suicide bombing that killed 21 civilians at a Kabul restaurant, the future of the U.S. and NATO presence in Afghanistan remains uncertain.

Unless the Obama administration can persuade Afghan President Hamid Karzai to sign a bilateral security pact with the United States, all 37,000 U.S. soldiers are due to leave Afghanistan at the end of the year.

Aziz said the United States should consider Pakistan's security when making its next moves in Afghanistan, something he said Washington did not do when withdrawing troops from Afghanistan in the early 1990s or returned after the attacks of September 11, 2001.

"We have to ensure that Afghanistan successfully transitions into a period of stability and that past mistakes are not repeated," Aziz said.

Kerry acknowledged those concerns and assured Pakistan that Washington valued its continued cooperation on fighting terrorism and on nuclear security.

"We recognize that Pakistan is a vital partner in supporting a secure Afghanistan," he said. "And we know how closely Pakistan's own security is linked to Afghanistan's success."

No one can dare to talk against policy even American thought has been hijacked By Israeli Think tank.

Did you know the Saudi govt. admits some of its citizens were involved in 9/11 attacks? Shocking.

This probably is a conspiracy by the Americans to force Karzai into signing the defence deal that has been hanging fire for quite some time what with Karzai hesitating to sign it wherein some American troops would be permanently stationed there.

The Americans need to set up bases in Afghanistan with about a division worth of troops as leaving Afghanistan in a vacuum is the last thing they want. There's too much at stake here. Thus, creating a security situation in Kabul would likely force Karzai into signing the deal.

That leads to the question - why on earth Karzai wouldnt want that? After all it will save his own sorry a$$ and US staying in afghan means more dollars popping in ...no? So why resist it now?

Politics! Karzai is playing to the gallery! He sure will sign it but at the last moment, after he has gained popularity by showing his distrust of the Americans.

It seems you have no understanding of Politics, when it says pakistan urges US to tread carefully it mean Pakistan wants US to remove all anti pakistani elements from Afghan govt and give control to us, means do our dirty work before leaving

 

[nangyale]

The article mentions it all if you read it. And of course the Taliban has intentions to take over Pakistan? Do you disagree with that objective of theirs?

Which Taliban is that? Is it Mullah Omar's group or Fazalullah's group currently sheltering in Kunar? Is it the Haqqanis or Hekmatyar's Hezb?
Can you elaborate a bit.

'Untapped' goat crap ?

exactly, like its was 60 and you found untapped camels crap and you started wars in middle east for that which is still going. But I know you will have some justification, just like a mass murderer and serial rapists everyone is right in their own mind.

Politics! Karzai is playing to the gallery! He sure will sign it but at the last moment, after he has gained popularity by showing his distrust of the Americans.

He might have asked US to do some killings, make a situation so I can justify signing a deal
