Afghanistan
Afghan president strikes softer tone on Pakistan
2011-10-04
[Dawn] Afghanistan's president says Pakistain has not lived up to its promises to help end the Taliban-led insurgency, but that he hopes the two countries can work together like brothers.
Check cleared, huh?
More like "Don't kill me too!"
Karzai's Monday night speech carried a conciliatory tone toward neighboring Pakistain, in contrast to recent accusations that Pakistain is supporting hard boyz believed to have been behind the liquidation of Afghanistan's former president.

An Afghan commission said Burhanuddin Rabbani's
... the murdered legitimate president of Afghanistan...
killing was plotted by hard boyz based in Pakistain.

Karzai says he expects the two countries will be able to cooperate because both have dealt with the violence spawned by the insurgency.

The careful language comes as Karzai prepares to depart for India, which Pakistain considers its archenemy.
