Pakistan Says Thanks To Hillary, And Shut Up To Chidambaram
Islamabad privately told Clinton to cool it on her claims unless she had
some real evidence, which she didn't. But Pakistanis were more than happy to
help her country improve relations with the Afghan Taliban, with whom
Washington and Karzai were trying to talk for a year now behind Pakistan's
back [as if Islamabad was located in South America and was not supposedly
Washington's main ally in Afghanistan]. As for India's noisy interior
minister, he was simply told to shut up.

Special PAKNATIONALISTS.COM Report
Monday, 2 November 2009.
<http://WWW.AHMEDQURAISHI.COM> WWW.AHMEDQURAISHI.COM
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan-Pakistan has rejected the US demand for crackdown
against members of the so-called Afghan Taliban Shura allegedly hiding in
Balochistan and termed the US claims as baseless and unfounded. At the same
time, Islamabad simply brushed aside the noise generated by India's interior
minister who tried to scare Pakistan with the threat of war but ended up
producing giggles in the Pakistani capital.
Pakistan, however, accepted to help Washington in intensifying talks with
the leadership of the Afghan Taliban, an idea which Mrs. Clinton floated in
Islamabad after months of so far pointless attempts at talks with the Afghan
Taliban.
Five weeks before US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's visit to Pakistan,
US diplomats in the Pakistani capital tried to pave the way for the visit by
issuing irresponsible statements on the question of the alleged presence of
the Afghan Taliban leadership in one of Pakistan's major cities. Ambassador
Anne W. Patterson and a couple of her juniors went to the extent of issuing
an indirect threat of war against Pakistan if the country did not take
action based on US 'information'. Unfortunately, the Zardari-Gilani
government balked at responding to the US diplomat who had clearly gone too
far in intimidating their host country.
But in its story,
<http://www.nation.com.pk/pakistan-news-newspaper-daily-english-online...
ics/02-Nov-2009/US-claims-on-Afghan-Taliban-Shura-baseless> 'US claims on
Afghan Taliban Shura baseless', published today, daily The Nation quoted
official sources as saying they told Mrs. Clinton to cool it, unless she had
some concrete evidence to support her public claims. Of course, she didn't.
According to The Nation report:
Well-placed sources informed that US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton
during her recent visit to Pakistan pushed for the crackdown but to her
sheer disappointment, the demand was rejected for lack of evidence.
Sources said Pakistan, however, acceded to the US request to help accelerate
process of dialogue with the Taliban elements in Afghanistan.
Sources further said that US move comes in the wake of its failed efforts to
woo away moderate Taliban elements from the hardcore fighting force that had
been plotting attacks on the US-led multinational forces in Afghanistan. The
US sponsored dialogue process was initiated last year with the help of Saudi
Arabia and Afghan government of President Hamid Karzai.
Taliban commander and Naib Amir, Mullah Akhund has been in talks on behalf
of Taliban demanding from the US to take its forces out of Afghanistan as
soon as possible so that a government could be formed in line with wishes of
Afghan people. Another major irritant that led the dialogue process
inconclusive was the US efforts to create rift among the Taliban through
different means.
However, the US has now sought Pakistan help and consequently President Asif
Ali Zardari has sent Director General ISI, Lt Gen Ahmed Shuja Pasha to Saudi
Arabia as his special emissary to discuss the renewed US proposal.
Sources said that Gen Pasha called on Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz in
Riyadh the other day and conveyed the message of President Asif Ali Zardari.
Gen Pasha also discussed matters of mutual interests with Saudi king. Saudi
Intelligence Chief Prince Muqrin bin Abdul Aziz also attended the meeting.
In another interesting report, by The Daily Mail of Islamabad, titled
<http://dailymailnews.com/1109/02/FrontPage/FrontPage1.php> Islamabad Gives
Shut Up Call To India's Chidumbaram, the Pakistan Foreign Office brushed
aside the war threats that India's interior minister Chidambaram has hurled
toward Pakistan.
According to the report:
Pakistan has strongly rebutted the Indian Home Minister's statement that
India would retaliate strongly to Pakistan-backed terrorism.
Speaking to an Indian TV channel, Pakistani Foreign Office spokesperson
Abdul Basit said that there is no point in resorting to public rhetoric, and
that India knows completely well about Pakistan's contribution to fighting
terrorism.
"My advice to India would be that they should avoid resorting to such public
rhetoric because it serves no purpose, and only serves the cause of the
common enemy - terrorism. India knows fully well Pakistan's contribution
towards countering terrorism and if India is serious about this then they
should respond to our suggestions, and proposal that the Joint
Anti-terrorism Mechanism should be activated, should be revitalized so that
our two countries can jointly work again terrorism and extremism," said
Abdul Basit.
Earlier, speaking at a public meeting in Madurai, Indian Home Minister P
Chidambaram had warned Pakistan that if Pakistani terrorists or extremists
indulged in terrorism again, India would retaliate strongly. Chidambaram
also added that it was time for the "game" to end with the Mumbai attacks,
saying that there is terrorism from foreign soil but India is gaining
strength to face it.
Chidambaram also warned Pakistan against meddling with India and said any
more attacks from that country would be retaliated against "very strongly."
He said he has been warning Pakistan not to play with India and that the
Mumbai attacks should be the "last game".
"We have been gaining strength day by day to counter terrorism from across
the border. I have been warning Pakistan not to play games with us. I have
told them that the last game should be Mumbai attacks. Stop it there," he
told a public meeting.
"If terrorists and militants from Pakistan try to carry out any attacks in
India, they will not only be defeated but will be retaliated very strongly,"
he said in his speech in Tamil.
The Foreign Office spokesman smiled when a reporter asked him about Mr.
Chidambaram's threat of war and preferred not comment on it.
A senior Pakistani diplomat said that the spokesman was not shying away from
responding to the Indian minister's statement.
"It's an undiplomatic statement," said the senior diplomat, "and it shows
immaturity and desperation. Pakistan won't submit to Indian attempts at
hegemony. Let's talk in seriousness to resolve problems. But the Indians
can't push us aside and forget about resolving outstanding issues like
Kashmir and India's role in fostering terrorism in Afghanistan, NWFP, Swat
and Balochistan."
