"Bin Laden Gets a Pass from Pakistan September 05, 2006 5:41 PM Brian Ross and Gretchen Peters Report: Ht2_pakistan02_060524_nrOsama bin Laden, America's most wanted man, will not face capture in Pakistan if he agrees to lead a "peaceful life," Pakistani officials tell ABC News. The surprising announcement comes as Pakistani army officials announced they were pulling their troops out of the North Waziristan region as part of a "peace deal" with the Taliban. If he is in Pakistan, bin Laden "would not be taken into custody," Major General Shaukat Sultan Khan told ABC News in a telephone interview, "as long as one is being like a peaceful citizen." Bin Laden is believed to be hiding somewhere in the tribal areas of Pakistan, near the Afghanistan border, but U.S. officials say his precise location is unknown. In addition to the pullout of Pakistani troops, the "peace agreement" between Pakistan and the Taliban also provides for the Pakistani army to return captured Taliban weapons and prisoners."

Pakistan looks like a nation that harbors terrorists.

Dude, he can praise Pakistan for being of help in fighting terrorism in March, and then be pissed at them in September because they've changed.

What are you trying to prove? Other than that you have no real clue about chronological timelines.

Maybe India will help us invade Pakistan.

""In response to a question, Major General Shaukat Sultan stated that foreigners settled in the area would be allowed to stay there on the condition that they live peacefully and abide by law. At no stage during the conversation he said that this was applicable to Osama Bin Laden. " In Washington, Pakistani Ambassador to the U.S. Mahmud Ali Durrani underscored Aziz's position, saying Maj. Gen. Shaukat Sultan had been "grossly misquoted in a section of U.S. media today." "Pakistan is on the hunt for Osama bin Laden and his associates. If he is in Pakistan, today or any time later, he will be taken into custody and brought to justice. No amnesty has been granted to Osama bin Laden." "

Looks like your blog jumped the gun

9/6/2006 2:04:24 PM

^^well that's how it is when people of a different ideology than you have control of 2/3 of the branches of gov't.

this story is bullshit

sorry, but there is no way anyone could convince me that if pakistan finds bin laden they wont arrest him

[Edited on September 6, 2006 at 2:16 PM. Reason : or atleast somehow give him up to the US i should say]

Look for a near future sweetheart deal for Pakistani mangoes...

9/6/2006 2:19:06 PM

Here's the transcript of the telephone conversation:

Quote :

"Q. ABC News: If bin Laden or Zawahiri were there, they could stay? A. Gen. Sultan: No one of that kind can stay. If someone is there he will have to surrender, he will have to live like a good citizen, his whereabouts, exit travel would be known to the authorities.<p> Q. ABC News: So, he wouldn't be taken into custody? He would stay there?<p> A. Gen. Sultan: No, as long as one is staying like a peaceful citizen, one would not be taken into custody. One has to stay like a peaceful citizen and not allowed to participate in any kind of terrorist activity. "

Sounds like the Pakistani army is surrendering to Osama and the Taliban.
