The US isn't saying Pakistan can't talk to terrorists, it's saying Pakistan must stop supporting and harboring terrorists. There is a huge difference. All those who want to just blame Pakistan's problems on the US need to wake up. When the US leaves in 2014, things will get even worse in Pakistan. No aid, no trade, no hope.
another pearl of wisdom from the leader of the organization that is busy destroying Pakistan
Of course: ormer Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) chief Qazi Hussain Ahmed said it is Pakistan’s right to remain in contact with the Haqqani network for negotiations
What it does not have is the right to also accept US aid ( na mere 20 Bn over last 10 years) and yet be in "contact" with the Haqqani Group.
The righjt will be further weakened once US declares the Haqqani Group as a Terrorist Organisation.
The water is flowing down stream from United States towards Pakistan and US is blaming Pakistan is making the water dirty for them. Mullen is going to retire in coming month and by accusing Pakistan, he tried his best for an honorable exit. Unfortunately the ball bounced back at their own faces which they are hiding now.
The article is comical. The US is not accusing Pakistan of just contacts. It is accusing Pakistan of active support and sanctuary to the Haqqani faction.
Very nice statement. If US does not has the ability to negotiate with entities then it cant simply snatch this right from Pakistan. US should rather learn this technique from Pakistan.
