Yesterday officials were talking about the importance of “pulling out all the stops” as several top US officials arrived in Pakistan to press the Pakistani government on the Haqqani Network. It was not the first time top officials were sent to Pakistan on a vital mission, but all previous trips ended in failure, with US officials loudly condemning Pakistan and threatening the government.
Today, the current trip appears to have suffered the same fate, as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned Pakistan would pay a “big price” if they continued to ignore US demands, and threatened unspecified “unilateral” acts.
Officials say the meetings lasted around four hours, and included both Pakistan’s top military commander Gen. Parvez Kayani and the ISI chief Lt. General Ahmed Shuja Pasha. They reportedly ended with a promise to meet again Friday and to not discuss the situation in between.
Pakistani officials slammed Secretary Clinton for her threats, saying they did not help with the atmosphere of the extremely important Friday talks. It seems that as usual, however, the US is preparing for the talks to fail and for another opportunity to condemn Pakistan. Some officials just jumped the gun on their longstanding policy.
The only option US has left to survive is to co operate insted pushing them against the wall.TAKE IT OR LEAVE It.
Flushed with the success of murdering another Head Of State – the arrogance of the Murderous States Of America has no bounds as they seek to plunge Pakistan further into the mire by having them MURDER their own people by Imperial Command Of The USA.
Will the killings ever cease.? When will America's bloodlust be appeased?
God help humanity while these despots roam the Earth.
For Pakistan is best option that america leaves this region as american,s can,t be trusted and their tactics will not change to order.
If americans have no brain to grasp that we are victim and can,t kill our own people for america and best option for america will be to use force against their own nation for illegal wars and lies.
It looks as American administration has mastered the art of making friends new foes!!! Thanks to Israel lobby!!!
Friends…?? More like tricks…. !! but Worse.. At least prostitutes & pimps have the option to change their ways… but their citizens that Pakistan pimps to America to kill with drones………….. they get no second chances….and their children which these drones kill don't either …!!
Reminds me of stories where village folks were asked by a monster to send one of them voluntarily to him to satisfy his lust for human blood. If they refused, the monster would destroy the whole village. What would you do if you were the mayor of the village? We know appeasement never works, but what are the choices here? Only we can stop our government — vote for Ron Paul.
Here's hoping this drives Pakistan further into the arms of China. There will be no peace in the world while the neocons continue to sleep safe at night.
It's very dangerous to ever become an ally of Washington in the first place. It would be best for the world if all nations just treated the US like a pariah and refused any relations with them at all.
The problem is that when Barack knocks on your door, if you don't answer he'll break it down.
Death murder death murder thats all the American government is known for.Americans and the world need to stop them.
Rahm Emanuel for chief of staph and Hillary as secretary of hate………….. the gross "O" failings… "O" a Neocon Trojan horse…??? OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Clinton's arrivals are as deadly as a drone attack. Does she carry them in her back pack instead of the chocolat of WWII?
Kissinger, Rice and Clinton – the faces of the "dark side" that has now become our face.
What should Pakistanis fear more? The incoming flight of drones, or Mrs. Clinton on her broom for a state visit?
You can take the Clintons out of the trailer park but you can't take the trailer park out of the Clintons.
It's Pakistan's turn this week.
Iran needs to rest and recharge for next week.
'Unilateral' – that sounds a lot like what the US does everywhere in the world, and in everybody's faces.
And the American middle class pays the bill with devalued dollars.
'Pakistan would pay a big price if they continued to ignore US demands…' says Clinton. In other words 'You are all al-Alawki now!'
Only American politicians go around lobbing threats like schoolyard bullies.
They should invade Pakistan already and get it over with. And Iran as well. At that point, we can start counting backwards from 20 till the Empire falls flat onto its face.
