Act on Pakistan border security, Karzai tells Blair

Thursday February 15 : The Afghan president, Hamid Karzai, last night urged Tony Blair to intensify pressure on Pakistan over the cross-border activities of Taliban and al-Qaida fighters. Afghan officials have accused Britain of reluctance to apply pressure on President Pervez Musharraf to act because it needs Pakistan's help in the fight against domestic terrorism.

Many of the most serious terrorist suspects, as well as at least two of the July 7 London suicide bombers, trained in Pakistani camps. Britain is now seeking the extradition of Rashid Rauf, a Muslim of dual British-Pakistani nationality, and key suspect behind an alleged suicide plot to blow up airliners last summer.

According to People's Daily, in a joint press conference, held after meeting with visiting Afghan President Hamid Karzai at Downing Street, B. Liar said securing the war-torn nation's future was necessary to protect Britain. Although British troops faced a "tough and difficult job," he was "determined to do everything we can to make sure the mission is successful in the south of Afghanistan," he said.

IMO: It this point it may not be unreasonable to do much more with regard to pro-active influence than B. Liar has done so far. (i.e. zap the Paks real hard if they don't actually help instead of telling blatant ridiculous lies and acting against UK interests; UK is still capable of telling that worthless failed nation what to do as otherwise British lives may have to pay just to save B. Liar minor embarrassment. For heavens sake, the Paks have been making trouble with India for years and India has not retaliated hard, simply because of their kindness and kinship, both qualities being reasonable, fair and virtuous. The Iranians will not be so friendly if they have to nuke the Paks. Taking out all the Paks may not be unreasonable. UK has NO kinship with the Paks AT ALL except for a small unwanted minority who are usually abusers anyway and Pak owes a lot in manpower and money)
