(Musharraf) 'Pak “not particularly looking for” bin Laden'

Source: AFP

WASHINGTON - Pakistan is not specifically looking for Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, as there is no proof he is in Pakistan, President Pervez Musharraf said on Sunday.

“We are not particularly looking for him, but we are operating against terrorists and Al Qaeda and militant Taleban. And in the process, obviously, combined, maybe we are looking for him also,” the Pakistani leader told CBS television in an interview aired late Sunday.

“We are fighting first of all Al Qaeda. Let’s take Al Qaeda. We have arrested or eliminated about 700 Al Qaeda leaders ... which other country has done this?”

“Well, which other country has Bin Laden?” his CBS interviewer replied, inciting a sharp retort from the Pakistani leader.

“No, I challenge — I don’t accept that at all. There is no proof whatsoever that he is here in Pakistan.”

Mahmoud Ali Durrani, Pakistan’s envoy to the United States, sought to clarify Musharraf’s remark, in an exchange with CNN.

“I think the president is suggesting that neither we, nor the US, has any intelligence where exactly Osama bin Laden is,” Durrani said.

"neither we, nor the US, has any intelligence where exactly Osama bin Laden is,”



nice.

Funny, that.

Posting anti-American thoughtsout in the open. Traitors like you and me belong in Gitmo.

done a 'sneak and peak'. They can do that you know.

We gave up on Bid Laden sometime early 2002. I'm surprised it took Musharraf this long to give-up himself

...he will stop getting all the money from US.

Why should he look for Bin Laden?

Bin laden is a hero to the Pakistani military. Not Musharraf and his cronies but the other 99.9%.

But Bush let the Pakistanis "guard the border" at Tora Bora because US forces were preparing to get on top of the Iraqi oil.

The mastermind of 9-11 is alive and well and still putting out videos.

troops in Pakistan?

Maye OBL has been dead for a long time and * and Musharif have been keeping up the facade!!

* said he didn't care where he was a couple of years ago...I often say * doesn't slip up when he speaks...he speaks exactly whats on his simple mind.

Mush man just stated that he's on board with morons* new secret weapon to get OBL. And he means not alive.

They are playing the waiting game. Mush man was quoted as saying, "mr. bush* and I agree. At some point OBL has to die of old age. No one escapes the GRIM REAPER!!!"

As of this printing, the Grim Reaper has not returned any of our calls.

flying his head towel on the Whitehouse flagpole. It would be their one and only success, in fact it would almost guarantee the Repugs fulfill the Rove fantasy of a one party country. Every damn Murican would be puffed up and strutting and saying crap like, "Don't screw with 'Murica we may be slow bit we get 'em in the end"

So cut the conspiracy BULLSHIT, and btw Bhutto was a knock-down dropdead good looking women, politically astute, not a genius. Nor is their one drop or iota of evidence she was privy to anything or anyone having information of the goings on in the heart of bin Ladens group...in fact there is strong evidence that NO one, not the vaunted Israeli intell, and certainly not the Pakistani government which is riddled with sympathizers and sworn enemies of bin Laden. But those are facts and realities and reasoning that are the first to be denied access into the diseased brain of the conspiricist.

I think you need your meds. What I wrote was satire.

considering my last line in what I wrote stated: "As of this printing, the Grim Reaper has not returned any of our calls."

put the keyboard down and back slowly away from the computer. And don't even try to reach for the coffee...

So I'm not too surprised Mushy is spouting the same line... though it is odd since that's supposedly why
Pakistan's getting billions of US taxpayer's dollars. You'd think he'd keep up a better front of being "hot on the trail
of OBL"..
