Afghanistan
'Pakistan the Commanding Base of Taliban, al-Qaeda'
2011-05-03
[Tolo News] Following the death of Osama Bin Laden in Pakistain, former chief of Afghan intelligence agency said Pakistain is a commanding base to al-Qaeda and the Taliban.

Amrullah Saleh, former chief of Afghan National Directorate of Security (NDS), said Osama's death is an indication of Pakistain supporting al-Qaeda terror network and the Taliban.

In a televised address the US President Barack B.O. Obama told Americans and the whole world that leader of al-Qaeda network, who is responsible for the death of thousands of innocent civilians in the world, was killed in an operation conducted by US military in Abbottabad which is not so far away from Islamabad.

Officials in Kabul said the death of the leader of al-Qaeda in Pakistain is irrefutable evidence changing Afghan claims into a reality that Pakistain backs and fuels regional insurgency.

This is impossible that a nuclear armed country could be unaware of the world most wanted man living and camping in the heart of its territory, Mr Saleh said.

"Today claims made by Afghans were proved to be right," he said.

In a sarcastic tone, Mr Saleh suggested to the government to go into negotiation with Islamabad rather the the Taliban.
Hey wait a minute -- he's not being smooth and diplomatic, kowtowing to Pakistan's regional hegemony. You don't suppose Pakistan's regional hegemony just popped along with Osama bin Laden's head?
