The US appears to persist with their own appreciation of International terrorism inspite of the reality staring in their face! 2. The British had mounted 7 wars into Afghanistan during their rule in India,but could only succeed in impoverishing that Nation,which eventually became fertile ground to breed the Taliban! 3.The US & Saudis nurtured Osama-bin- Laden against the Soviets in Afghanistan,& after the Soviets' waterloo there, Osama has turned his attention on the West!! 4.In the unfolding events of Worldwide terrorism openly admitted by Gen Musharraf, the ISI sponsored terror gangs have spread far & wide. 5.And yet, US is claiming that Pak is a great ally!!! Yes perhaps, if this is claimed on the basis that US special & other forces have access into Afghanistan thru Pakistan.The groundswell of the resentment is rising & will reach tsunami proportions.May be only then will the foreign policy pundits of Washington open their eyes! 6.The war on terror has to be fought not with weapons of destruction, but when prosperity is much more equitably distributed from the wealthier societies into the worlds poor societies.Let there be a total ban on flow of weapons into thehavenots
