Pakistan calls for immediate halt to Iraq war
2003-04-07
Pakistan on Monday called for immediate end to Iraq war and reiterated that diplomacy must be given a chance to find a peaceful solution.
It's kinda late for that. Don't they read the papers?
"Pakistan wants an immediate end to hostilities. Pakistan has been favoring peaceful resolution of the conflict and a role for the United Nations," Foreign Office spokesman Aziz Ahmed Khan told reporters in Islamabad, where he'd just emerged from a three week nap in a cave. Asked about Pakistan's post-war policy on Iraq, he said Pakistan is constantly prepared for any eventuality not only with regard to Iraq but anywhere in the world. The spokesman said relief goods for Iraq, as announced by the prime minister, are ready and these would be delivered as soon as it becomes clear where to dispatch them.
"Hey, Mahmoud! Where y'wanna dispatch this load of arms an ammunition?"

#1  "Pakistan wants an immediate end to hostilities."

So do we, Mr. Khan, and the sooner the Iraqis lay down their guns, the sooner the hostilities will end. Talk to them, not us.
