Pakistan says U.S. policies polarize world.

Pakistan, a key U.S. ally in the war on terror, said yesterday that the Bush policies were polarizing the world between Muslims and non-Muslims, and creating a highly charged and potentially violent atmosphere.

Interior Minister Makhdoom Faisal Saleh Hayat said Washington should adopt a more humane approach as the world's sole superpower, and practice the higher moral values that it preaches.

"He talks of the maintenance of higher moral values, but these values have to be amply demonstrated outside," he said, in a reference to the Deserter-in-Thief, the AWOL, court-appointed crackhead Smirky McChimp.

The new doctrine of preemptive war would "certainly add to the highly charged atmosphere," he said.

Asked if it might unleash a new era of violence around the world, Hayat said: "I wouldn't rule it out."

PROMISES NOT KEPT IN AFGHANISTAN
Hayat said there had been a great deal of hope that peace would be restored in Afghanistan. "Today Mr. Hamid Karzai is the president of Afghanistan but unfortunately, tragically his regime only extends to the outskirts of Kabul. What are the coalition forces in Afghanistan doing?"

He said there was a strong feeling that the priorities of the United States had changed. "The level of interest of the United States in Afghanistan has not been the same as it was six months ago."

Hayat complained that poppy cultivation for the production of opium and heroin had risen to record levels after the fall of the Taliban, but U.S.-led coalition forces had done nothing to address the problem.

"Two-thirds of that is on our western borders," he said. "We have asked the Americans, we told the commanders of allied forces - what hampers you, or what restricts you from totally neutralizing this cultivated land?

"They say that is not within our mandate," he said. - From here (thanks to Bohemian Mama for the link).
