Pakistan accuses US of 'negative propaganda'
The Pakistan Army has accused the United States of waging a campaign of "negative propaganda" over its role in the war on al-Qaeda and Taliban militants.

'It's fairly well known that the ISI has a long-standing relationship with the Haqqani network,' Admiral Michael Mullen said Photo: AFP/GETTY By Dean Nelson, New Delhi 3:15PM BST 21 Apr 2011

Its claim was made in a military statement criticising comments by Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the United States Joint Chiefs of Staff, that Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence agency (ISI) had maintained a relationship with the Haqqani network – one of the deadliest factions in the Taliban's Afghan insurgency.

During a visit to Pakistan on Wednesday, Admiral Mullen said continuing links between the ISI and the Haqqani network, which attacks Nato troops in Afghanistan from safe havens in North Waziristan, are a cause of "continuing strain" in relations between the two countries.

"Haqqani is supporting, funding, training fighters that are killing Americans and killing coalition partners. And I have a sacred obligation to do all I can to make sure that doesn't happen," he told a television interviewer.

Relations between the two countries deteriorated significantly earlier this year following the arrest of Raymond Davis, a CIA contractor who shot dead two men he believed were trying to rob him as he drove his car through a Lahore suburb. There has been disagreement too over an increase in missile attacks in North Waziristan by American Predator drones.

In a statement released by Pakistan's military spokesman, its chief of army staff, General Ashfaq Kayani was quoted rejecting criticism of its commitment to fighting militants.

According to the statement, "the Pakistan army's ongoing operations are a testimony of our national resolve to defeat terrorism. He (Kayani) strongly rejected negative propaganda of Pakistan not doing enough and Pakistanarmy's lack of clarity on the way forward."

And your point, sir??

During a visit to Pakistan on Wednesday, Admiral Mullen said continuing links between the ISI and the Haqqani network, which attacks Nato troops in Afghanistan from safe havens in North Waziristan, are a cause of "continuing strain" in relations between the two countries.

Ooh, Well, then there is list you might want to consider these other strains:

1. The sidelining of Pakistani interests in Afghanistan by the US and her satrap
2. Training and Financing, and the provision of santuaries of Balouch insurgents in Afghanistan.
3. Training and financing of TTP insurgents in safe haven in Afghanistan
4. The provision by the US of Afghan territory as a launching pad for saboteurs in to Pakistan
5. The creation by US of poisonous anti-Pakistan propaganda on Afghan radio and television

Pakistan have links with Haqqani network?? Yes, of course, Pakistan maintain contacts with a variety of diverse players, much as the US does - Go back Admiral, go back and don't come back unless you got more Dollars on you-- Your effort in Afghanistan is a failure and we know you will be back for round two, and we want you to know that once again, Pakistanis will be there to "help" you along, till you recover for round three or till the Dollar prevails.
