Wikileaks Afghanistan: powerful police chief was Iranian spy
US paying Pakistan to kill American troops?
The logical outcome of continuing to finance Pakistan’s double game. “US paying Pakistan to kill American troops?,” by Chidanand Rajghatta in the Times of India, July 27: The Obama- government that wants you to believe Islam has nothing to do with Islamic terrorism manages to make an even bigger fool out of itself. (true to form, the Obama regime goes after the whistle blowers, with no intent to change its flawed policies….)
But will the anti-war cause really be served by the released documents? Why Wikileaks Will Fail
WASHINGTON: A treasure trove of US documents implicating Pakistan in its support for terrorism exploded in the public domain on Sunday, sending officials in both countries scurrying to defend a dubious alliance and straining a phony partnership based on a misreading of the ground sentiment and situation.WikiLeaks, a whistleblower organization that publishes sensitive government leaks from anonymous sources, put a staggering 91,000 documents, mainly ground reports from US military personnel, in public domain on Sunday. Many of the documents exposed Pakistan’s double-faced policy of fuelling terrorism in Afghanistan while claiming to be fighting it as an US ally.
In effect, the chronicles suggested that Washington was blindly paying Pakistan massive amounts of money for access to Afghanistan even as Islamabad uses its spy agency, ISI, to plot the death of American and Nato troops, allied Indian personnel, and undermines US policy. The most devastating leaks showed that Pakistan allows representatives of its spy service, ISI, to meet directly with the Taliban in secret strategy sessions to organize attacks against American soldiers in Afghanistan, and even hatch plots to assassinate Afghan leaders, including President Hamid Karzai….
“Americans fighting the war in Afghanistan have long harboured strong suspicions that Pakistan’s military spy service has guided the Afghan insurgency with a hidden hand, even as Pakistan receives more than $1 billion a year from Washington for its help combating the militants,” the New York Times said in its assessment of the report. “The records also contain firsthand accounts of American anger at Pakistan’s unwillingness to confront insurgents who launched attacks near Pakistani border posts, moved openly by the truckload across the frontier and retreated to Pakistani territory for safety,” it continued.
“The behind-the-scenes frustrations of soldiers on the ground and glimpses of what appear to be Pakistani skullduggery contrast sharply with the frequently rosy public pronouncements of Islamabad as an ally by American officials looking to sustain a drone campaign over parts of Pakistani territory to strike at Qaida havens,” it added.
That policy of ambivalence and appeasement continued even into the hours after the WikiLeaks expose, as US and Pakistani officials rushed to control the damage. US national security advisor James Jones condemned the “disclosure of classified documents by individuals and organizations”, which, he said, “could put the lives of Americans and our partners at risk, and threaten our national security”, when, in effect, the documents suggest it is Washington’s appeasement of Pakistan which is doing that….
Indeed.

Mohammedans and left wing moonbats especially American ones hate the USA so the news that the USA is FINANCING its own attackers will not trouble them one bit. In fact I would bet that many left wing moonbats in Obambi’s Racist Socialist REGIME already KNOW that this is happening anyway.
Its only RACIST to call a RACIST a RACIST when the one doing the calling is WHITE and the one being called RACIST is BLACK. When the roles are reversed its the WHITE guy who has to PROVE he is NOT a RACIST and no such implication is made of the BLACK guy. Of course its also RACIST to tell the TRUTH about ISLAM and to call a Muslim ANYTHING even though MUSLIM is NOT A RACE its a CULT.
You should know the RULE by now ONLY WHITEY can be RACIST.
Just ask Obambi ( the half cast who has rejected his WHITE family even though they and their money raised and schooled him) who is most definitely not America’s POST Racial President but America’s most MOST Racial President.
Of course the left wing moonbat Partisan Political Operatives ( they laughingly call themselves Journalists/ Jourolisters) at the Lame Stream Media will not tell you this though. They will however blame WHITEY for being a RACIST ad nauseum.
