Pakistan made deal for US to hunt Osama
Calcutta News.Net Wednesday 2nd July, 2008
It has been reported that President Pervez Musharraf granted the US the right to launch attacks on Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden in Pakistan, without prior permission from Islamabad.
According to the Washington Post, the agreement, which was made soon after Pakistan joined the US-led war on terror, still stands.
The U.S. has options for sending special operations teams into Pakistan if bin Laden's exact location is determined, but military officials said it would be a flying drone, not boots on the ground, that would be dispatched to kill the al Qaeda leader.
The drone could be airborne, or redirected in flight, in a matter of minutes.
By not requesting Pakistan's approval first, the U.S. would avoid the risk of breaching operational security.
Washington still harbours suspicions about Pakistan's Inter-Service Intelligence agency, which helped establish pro-al Qaeda Taliban rule in Afghanistan.
The fact that Osama continue to evade arrest even after seven years, has put renewed focus on the Pakistani government's restraints on US efforts to find bin Laden, as Pakistan prohibits American military ground forces on its soil.
According to the Post, Pakistan allowed the CIA to secretly launch missile-equipped Predators from its soil into Afghanistan during the war to oust the Taliban, and it has continued to let the agency fly the unmanned surveillance planes over Pakistan.

Pakistan made deal for US to hunt Osama
How utterly lil bushy! The infantile bush sees bribing the way to make Americans 'safe'!
Well, we are not safer! Infact much more hated and much less safer!
So much for throwing out Our Heritage! Our Constitution and Our Honor! The war mongers that control of defensive weapons have turn us into 'Terrorists Surpreme' like in an icecream. But it melted on the fools!
So much for Rule of Law! Who is going to restore Our Rule of Law? No One!
No One Has the courage! McCain? no way! Obama? He already has put on the lil pundit’s shoes!
Neither should be annoited by the coming conventions! Instead! The Conventions need to be opened as Open! The Primmaries declared Void, on the basis of the 'campaigns' were not honestly presented! Both leaders lied to the public for the votes they received! Only an open convention can now restore Honesty to Our Government! and the Possibility of an Honest President to be elected!

Chearters never sleep with hunger !!!
Really Pakistanis are regarded the Super Power of the world to “cheat with
their double Part” With one hat, they are allies of Americans and with the other hat, they are friends of Talibans!!!!!. ...... Pakistani establishment needs money to bribe and equip their Talibans to Kill NATO forces and shoot their helicopters down . American tax-payers are unconsciously acting like Osama bin Ladan to finance Talibans through Pakistani Military or ISI and their chief Mr. Musharaf.
It`s said that...“Where there are greedy guys, the thugs never sleep with hunger”.

So why haven't we caught bin Laden?
While you fools are fighting each other, exchanging insults (and names it seems), Rome is burning. Why is that the US has not caught bin Laden after receiving permission from pakistan to hunt him down years ago? What has happened to our superpower intelligence, tracking and military apparatus? How are we being outsmarted for so many years by a cave-dwelling nomad, with no resources, little money, and primitive weapons. The guy doesn’t even have a mobile phone.

Pakistan says US not hunting bin Laden on its turf
Sat Jul 12, `08 - Pakistan’s top diplomat said Saturday there are no U.S. or other foreign military personnel on the hunt for Osama bin Laden in his nation, and none will be allowed in to search for the al-Qaida leader.
]
In an interview with The Associated Press, Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said his nation’s new government has ruled out such military operations, covert or otherwise, to catch militants. “Our government’s policy is that our troops, paramilitary forces and our regular forces are deployed in sufficient numbers. They are capable of taking action there. And any foreign intrusion would be counterproductive," he said Saturday. “People will not accept it. Questions of sovereignty come in."
The United States has grown increasingly frustrated as al-Qaida, the Taliban and other militants thrive in Pakistan’s remote areas and in neighboring Afghanistan, and has offered U.S. troops to strike at terror networks. Critics in Washington also have expressed frustration with the new Pakistani government’s pursuit of peace deals in the region. Bin Laden is believed to be hiding somewhere along the rugged and lawless Afghan-Pakistan border region.
Pakistan’s newly elected civilian government is negotiating with tribal elders to secure peace with militants along the Afghan border in hopes of curbing a surge in violence. It is a step back from the heavy-handed tactics pursued by the previous government led by supporters of President Pervez Musharraf. Tension between the U.S. and Pakistan have been high after Pakistan said U.S. aircraft killed 11 of its soldiers at a border post in June. U.S. officials have said coalition aircraft dropped bombs during a clash with militants.
