surge is not good,
surge is not solution of the present crisis,
surge will become the basic reason of more complications
in regard to world economy and deathes.
I am very happy,
hearing the news,
they are swiftly coming to right point
by offering of share in power to Talban.
Talban do not come in the ring of terrorist,
they were ruller,and have been in power for remarkable time,
they were attacked,levelling allegation against them,
they were defeated and aftermath comppelled to fight for their existance,
they are in fact freedom fighters.
President Karzai is playing a remarkable role
as he requested to Saudi king for negotiation with Talban,
that is a landmark step taken by him
I hope,
there will a good result of the talks,
going on under the leadership of Saudi king,
because he is not only sincere in efforts ,
but also whole muslim world gives him unique respect,
as a spirtial leader,

With the security situation in his country steadily deteriorating, and Taliban activity on the rise, Afghan President Hamid Karzai sat down in New York last week with NEWSWEEK's Lally Weymouth to discuss the future of Afghanistan. Excerpts:
WEYMOUTH:
How is the situation in your country? Reportedly the Taliban is gaining strength and the NATO position is deteriorating. Is that an accurate assessment?
KARZAI: The Taliban are not strengthening, [but] we are not doing things that we should be doing.
Such as?
Such as, we did not pay attention in time to the sanctuaries of the Taliban.
Do you mean sanctuaries in Afghanistan or in Pakistan?
Sanctuaries in the region. I am trying to be very careful now.
Are you saying the international community should have paid more attention to the tribal areas?
Absolutely.
What should they have done?
They should have done all that was needed to be done—political and diplomatic, the right concentration of both.
You mean they should have gone in there militarily?
Not militarily. They should have used and kept open all options in order to bring security to Afghanistan.
Didn
'
t former Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf try quite a few options?
Maybe he did try, maybe the West did try it with him, but we did not see the results. And as we see now, unfortunately, the problem has gone deeper into Pakistan. The bombing recently in Islamabad [of the Marriott hotel]—unbelievable, shocking. I've had so many lunches and dinners in that hotel.
