2007-11-05 21:11 A proud, but failing, state
By Peter Preston (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): When, last year, America's heavyweight Foreign Policy magazine moved Pakistan into its top 10 of failed states - at No 9, just ahead of Afghanistan - assorted Islamabad ministers clambered on to the highest of horses. The charge was insulting, ludicrous ... But, baby, try it again now.Here is a huge Islamic nation, nuclear bombs primed not promised, plunged once more under full monty martial law. The army chief of staff who doubles as president has just …

Osama bin Ladens oppfordring til gruppene i Irak om å samarbeide er et tegn på at Al Qaida sliter med oppslutningen, mener sikkerhetseksperten Anthony Cordesman. "My mujahedeen brothers in Iraq, you are a people worthy of praise and flattery. You've done well to carry out a glorious duty by fighting the enemy. But some of you have lagged behind in carrying out another glorious duty, which is to unite as one — as God wants," bin Laden said. He warned followers "against hypocritical enemies who ar …

2007-10-22 19:00 Nato utan strategi i afghanistan
Alltid roligt att få bekräftelse på vad jag sagt i ett år från Chatham House. Utan en politisk lösning finns det ingen väg ut ur Afghanistan. Natos prestige är inkopplad samtidigt som man inte vill skicka de styrkor eller resurser som behövs för en återuppbyggnad. Och COIN som det heter på militär amerikanska är knappast möjligt så länge som NATO och de amerikanska trupperna envisas med att bomba sänder byar så fort Talibaner visar sig. Utrikesbloggen - Nato saknar strategi för Afghanistan Nato …

2007-10-22 18:29 Vägen mot ett Irankrig
Värd att läsa i sin helhet för de som läser engelska. Visar om inte annat hur 'true belivers' i vita huset gång på gång sagt nej till förhandlingar med Iran och till otaliga fredsförslag från olika arabstater när det gäller Israel-Palestina. Intressant är även Israels roll i den amerikanska mellanöstern politiken. När Sharon sade nej var detta också ett nej från Bush administrationen. Vice-president Cheney och Rumsfeld framgår också som de verkliga arkitekterna bakom Bush administrationens utrik …

Benazir Bhutto kommer sent - kanskje for sent til å redde et minimum av legalt politisk liv i Pakistan. Salafistene utgjør allerede en stat i staten flere steder. De driver selvjustis og har sine folk innen politi og hær. Bhutto antydet at det v ar disse som sørget for at lyset gikk langs ruten hennes kolonne fulgte torsdag kveld, og telefonen også falt ut.

2007-10-19 21:57 Jason Burke: Når terroren kommer hjem
Når folk i den muslimske verden får oppleve hva terror virkelig betyr, synker oppslutningen om de ekstreme: But the most significant effect of the carnage in Karachi may be on support for the militants. Here, as events in the 90s in Algeria showed, the exact responsibility for any given atrocity is not necessarily important. When I lived in Pakistan, in the late 90s, few supported such acts, at home or abroad. In the aftermath of 2001, the war on terror and the invasion of Iraq, support soared. …

2007-10-19 11:37 Benazir Bhutto returns to Pakistan and 120+ leave this world
I thought they made a mistake while quoting '166 dead'. I later realized that it was the biggest terrorist attack in Pakistan. Once again innocents, who had absolutely nothing to do power game going on the democrazy of Pakistan, were targeted. Two bombs exploded Thursday night just seconds apart and feet from a truck carrying the returning opposition leader Benazir Bhutto, narrowly missing her but killing scores of people and bloodying a triumphal homecoming after eight years in exile.

2007-10-18 10:37 How U.S. policy has destabilized the Middle East
(Originally posted at The Motley Patriot and is an update to an article I wrote posted at TalkLeft )I originally posted a diary at TalkLeft entitled, `The Merry-Go-Round of Iraqi Sectarian Violence`, in which I show how U.S. policy in Iraq is fueling the sectarian violence. Given Turkey's recent vote to allow incursions into northern Iraq against the PKK, I thought an update appropriate. So, first, exactly how is the U.S. policy in Iraq fueling the sectarian violence Because we are arming militi …

2007-10-16 18:04 Om de komplicerade förhållandet mellan Iran och USA
Från Steven Clemons alltid intressant blog. Många i Sverige tycker ju tro på myten att USA och Iran enbart är bittra fiender. När det gällde projektet att avlägsna saddam fanns det ju även ett inofficiellt samarbete med Chalabi som mellanhand. Det kryllade ju även av Iranska underättelseagenter hos kurderna när Chalabi hade sitt högkvartet där 95-96. Att det sedan var Iran som ville ha ett formaliserade av relationer gör det hela ännu mer intressant. The Washington Note Under Clinton, relations …

2007-10-16 05:30 London faces up to reality and seeks deal with Taliban
The Exile loves a good Whitehall spin, especially when it is covering up a defeat for imperialism. Yesterday's Guardian gave an example of such spin in action when it reported that the British plan "to split the Taliban by securing the defection of senior members of the militant group and large numbers of their followers". The report goes on the state that quite a few Taliban have already given up the fight and are coming over to the Kabul government's side. Buried a long way down the report is …

Have the terrorist attacks of September 11th 2001 put a lasting dent in civil liberties In every war, information is a weapon. In a œwar against terrorism , where the adversary wears no uniform and hides among the civilian population, information can matter even more. But does that mean that torture can sometimes be justified to extract information The answer in international law is categorical: no.

The UK has supported plans to bring senior Taliban into the Afghan government, according to The Guardian: As British troops are being withdrawn from Iraq, the military presence in southern Afghanistan is to be bolstered in the next few months by the deployment of the Parachute Regiment and new Eurofighter/Typhoon fighter-bombers. At the same time, however, British officials have concluded that the Taliban is too deep-rooted to be eradicated by military means. Following a wide-ranging policy revi …
