The Bush administration insists it won't negotiate with Afghanistan's Taliban government, but sources say U.S. and Taliban officials did meet at a Pakistani hotel.
Four days after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, five Americans checked into a hotel in Quetta, one of the most potentially dangerous cities in Pakistan.
But CBS News has met with an Afghan-American businessman who
describes himself as a middleman (Kabir Mohabbat)and says he attended a meeting on September 16th between the U.S. and Taliban officials in the hotel in Quetta.
