Swat operation launched on behest of U.S., says Qazi
2009-05-09
[Geo News] Former Jamaat-e-Islami Amir Qazi Hussain Ahmed Friday said that the government had launched military operation in Swat on the behest of United States. Speaking at a ceremony here, he said that Sufi Muhammad's dead son was not a militant. He had gone to the house of his father-in-law to bring some luggage where he was killed.

Ahmed noted that preparations were underway to launch a Lal Mosque-like operation that would draw a strong reaction. He further said that nearly one million people had displaced. To a question, he said that the government had said in its consensus resolution that use of force was not the solution of every problem.
