...where theory meets practice and practice loses...
Maleeha Lodhi said Saturday that the terror safe havens existed in areas of Afghanistan that were not under government control.

She went on to claim that "There are no such safe havens in Pakistain. The only havens that exist for the bandidos Lion of Islams and for ISIS and other bandidos bandidos Lion of Islams are within the 40 percent of Afghan territory which is outside the control of the Afghan government."

The US Vice President Mike Pence during his visit to Afghanistan on Friday reiterated Washington’s stance regarding the terror safe havens in Pakistain.

He said "For too long Pakistain has provided safe haven to the Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
and many terrorist organizations, but those days are over. President Trump has put Pakistain on notice."

"As the President said, so I say now: Pakistain has much to gain from partnering with the United States, and Pakistain has much to lose by continuing to harbor criminals and terrorists," he added.

The US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
had earlier expressed concerns regarding the terror safe havens posing threats to Afghanistan and the United States.
