Pakistan still sanctuary for Taliban

It is believed from a number of sources, for example Hindustan Times and Gulf Times and indeed even the BBC World Service that Pakistan is still a serious sanctuary for the Taliban. For example "informed opinion is unanimous that the cause of Nato’s difficulties is the sanctuary that Pakistan is so readily providing to the Taliban in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (Fata)".

Something has to be done about this as NATO seems to be still fighting, in effect, unlawful elements in Pakistan.

IMO: Already it is widely believed that we see gross corruption in the UK because of the smuggling of drugs from Afghanistan through Pakistan. Disgraceful. And the old phrase "stoned right up to the wigs" was never more appropriate, but then it seem Reid cannot even cope with his own in-laws having a drug problem, let alone sacking dodgy judges. But he does seem to have tried to push the Home Office about a bit, a bit more than Jack Straw or that blind bloke did, lets hope we see more action.

One answer here.
