The latest on the extremists..Thousands of Pakistani tribesmen remained on the Afghan border Sunday ready to join the Taliban while others blocked hundreds of vehicles on the "Silk Route" to China to oppose the US military campaign.

The Pakistan authorities were trying to stop the armed tribesmen crossing into Afghanistan, while negotiating with the other Mujahideen who were threatening to blow up any vehicle that tried to pass their blockades.
On the border, heavily armed tribesmen set out Saturday in a 100-truck convoy to cross the border into Afghanistan to join the Taliban militia in its war against the United States.
