Pakistan: Minister claims Afghanistan used as base for attacks
[ADN Kronos] Pakistan's interior minister Rehman Malik said that neighbouring Afghanistan was being used as a base to support militancy in Pakistan and stir unrest. "Afghanistan should stop the use of its soil against Pakistan. Supply of arms and ammunition across the border must be halted," said Malik on Thursday during an interview with local TV.
Every once in a while these goobers say something so astoundingly hypocritical it takes the very breath away...
The minister said peace and stability in Afghanistan was in the interest of Pakistan and it would lead to peace in the region. He termed the fight against terrorism in Pakistan a war of the whole world and said the international community should cooperate in the war, otherwise the menace could affect the whole world. "The world must realise that we are fighting against a common enemy."
Maybe we should send troops, huh?
"No, just cash. And not the small bills, either. The wad of small bills ruins the drape of my suits."
Pakistan's security forces have, for over seven weeks, been engaged in a fierce military campaign against the Taliban and other Islamist insurgents in areas neighbouring Afghanistan such as the North West Frontier Province.
