Karzai calling Mullah Omar "his Brother"
Reader comment on item: Must Counterinsurgency Wars Fail?
in response to reader comment: No truth!!!
Submitted by Mark Blackman (United States), Oct 5, 2008 at 00:02
What I saw and heard this week was STUNNINGLY AMAZING !! (check out Dawn news, Geo news)
That Mr Karzai (on American pay-roll) calling on Mullah Omar to "come to Kabul and start a dialogue with him". And I even heard Mr Karzai calling on Mullah Omar as his "own brother"
And the US media is Speechless on that. Why??
It is ASTONISHING !!!
Ofcourse Karzai CAN'T dare to invite Mullah Omar without the permission of his employer.....
This move gives tells me that the insurgency is winning and US is losing in Afghanistan also.
MN
Dislike
Submitting....
