Al Qaeda leadership in Pakistan: Hillary Clinton
* US taxes everything, and ‘that’s not what we see in Pakistan’
* Pakistan must start planning for challenges posed by population growth
* US secretary of state meets COAS
LAHORE: The leadership of Al Qaeda is in Pakistan, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Thursday.
“I find it hard to believe that nobody in your government knows where they are and couldn’t get them if they really wanted to,” she added.
“Maybe that’s the case; maybe they’re not gettable. I don’t know... As far as we know, they are in Pakistan,” Clinton told senior Pakistani newspaper editors in Lahore, AFP reported. “The percentage of taxes on GDP (in Pakistan) is among the lowest in the world... We (the United States) tax everything that moves and doesn’t move, and that’s not what we see in Pakistan,” she said.
“You do have 180 million people. Your population is projected to be about 300 million. And I don’t know what you’re going to do with that kind of challenge, unless you start planning right now,” she said.
“If we are going to have a mature partnership where we work together” then “there are issues that not just the United States but others have with your government and with your military security establishment”.
Separately, Clinton also met army chief General Ashfaq Kayani and exchanged views on a host of security-related issues. afp/sajjad malik
Wait till they tax O2 consumption, then the circle will be complete. Rebellion is in the air (and it’s about time)!
Worst diplomacy ever.
I don’t understand her words. Which is the case:
1. She’s committing to lower US taxes
2. She’s saying taxation is evidence of an advanced society —one that Pakistan should strive to become
Which is it? Does anyone have an idea?
“I find it hard to believe that nobody in your government knows where they are and couldn’t get them if they really wanted to,” she added.
“Maybe that’s the case; maybe they’re not gettable. I don’t know... As far as we know, they are in Pakistan,”
If you REALLY don’t know, Hillary - why don’t you just keep your mouth shut???? If you DO know, how about leading the posse?
ENDGAME
Hildebeast is hag. Is she lecturing them to sponsor federal funded abortions,too?
Is she warning them of the coming Marxist hegemony or threatening them? In any case the Hildebeast has never been this honest with Americans.
She is telling Pakistan to tax the subjects till they bleed like the good old USA does to its subjects.
Hillary is saying
“You can’t find OBL & AlQaeda because your taxes are too low.”
Go figure
She smoked way too much pot over the years.
Just my opinion of course.
The list, ping
“I don’t know. do you know? does anybody really know what time it is?”
I doubt she can cook anything other than a Rat’s Ass Stew.
