Americans ignore to target terrorists beyond Afghan borders: Karzai
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The former Afghanistan's Caped President Hamid Maybe I'll join the TalibanKarzai ... A former Baltimore restaurateur, now 12th and current President of Afghanistan, displacing the legitimate president Rabbani in December 2004. He was installed as the dominant political figure after the removal of the Taliban regime in late 2001 in a vain attempt to put a Pashtunface on the successor state to the Taliban. After the 2004 presidential election, he was declared president regardless of what the actual vote count was. He won a second, even more dubious, five-year-term after the 2009 presidential election. His grip on reality has been slipping steadily since around 2007, probably from heavy drug use... has said the Americans are ignoring to target the gunnies beyond the Afghan borders, accusing the United States for playing double game in Afghanistan. In interview with the Russia Today, Karzai said the Americans are ignoring the pleas by the Afghans to target extremism beyond the Afghan borders, emphasizing that the US should admit it failed its mission to bring peace and security to Afghanistan. Karzai further added that the United States must seek help from the big neighbors of Afghanistan, including Russia, China, India, and Iran and find ways of addressing the issue of radicalism with these countries, insisting that these countries are also affected. According to Karzai, Pakistain should also be engaged in a manner to help ease to compete against extremism. However, it was a brave man who first ate an oyster... he said the US and Pakistain lack interest in stopping Afghan war and stall progress of Afghan peace talks. The former Afghanistan's Caped President also added that Taliban can’t be defeated in war and only peace talks can bring the civil strife of the Afghan nation to an end. He said the Afghan people can reconcile with Taliban emphasizing that ’they are Afghans like us but poppy growing is a real curse’. Karzai also warned the Taliban group that they will not be able to overrun the whole country and will manage to seize a few bustling provincial capitals. The other issues the former President pointed were Pakistain’s desire dominance in Afghanistan and US drone strikes that prevent in seeking peace and are making Taliban fight harder instead of forcing them to start talks.
