Title: A Beggar or A Terrorist or Both
Dawn.com The Powell mission : Editorial page
The other day, in fact, Washington virtually rebuffed New Delhi by declaring that Islamabad was playing a crucial role in the world coalition's fight against terrorism. The snub came in the wake of the Indian call to the US to have Pakistan declared a terrorist state.

JPR's comment
The editorial writers just simply ignored the fact that US is against plebiscite, which Pakistan wants. The writers are simply guilty of omission and commission in their writings. How about this? Let us (US) declare that Pakistan is a beggar state. Is that true or false? The pakis can find more dignity in that characterization-beggar!
As long as the paki Butt-heads cooperate with US on fighting terrorism, America won't declare Pakistan as a terrorist state. Yes, it is a fact that the pakis are cooperating with US on fighting terrorism for a few reasons: the pakis want the US pay their bill and forgive the outstanding debt; terrorism might destroy the unity of the nation of Pakistan. Yes, when it comes to stopping infiltrators at the LoC, it is a half-hearted effort, nonetheless an effort to pull the wool over the US eyes. --JPR
