Karzai: A Roaring Mouse; Pak Politicians & Their Base In Diplomatic Enclave
Does Hamid Karzai want to start the Third World War? If the Pakistan Army was to respond, a clash between them and NATO forces could bring the world to the thermonuclear threshold. He shouldn’t forget that, U.S. help notwithstanding, it was we who did what Napoleon and Hitler couldn’t – defeat the Russian Empire and liberate Afghanistan. Karzai was ‘Pakistan’s Karzai’ when he lived on our largesse for two decades, protected by our own ISI. This poor hapless rodent is required to kill all the cats that belong to the fierce breeds known as ‘Taliban’ and ‘Al Qaeda’. If he is lucky enough to avoid the fate of his predecessor Najibullah, he can return to live in Pakistan again to end his days in comfort, telling his grandchildren stories of the ‘glory’ that was once his as the Lord Mayor of Kabul who couldn’t kill cats.

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan—Have you ever heard a mouse roar? If you haven’t, you should have heard Hamid Karzai the other day. He called the Taliban leader “Pakistan’s Mullah Omar”, forgetting that the description “Pakistan’s Karzai” fitted him better once – the ingrate lived on our munificence for two decades under the protection of our ISI.
Now the latest occupiers of his country have ineffectively made him Lord Mayor of Kabul rejoicing under the title ‘President of Afghanistan’.
Dick Wittington returned to London when he imagined the bells tolling “Turn again Whittington, thrice Lord Mayor of London” and became a scullery boy again in the house of Mr. Fitzwarren. He found that his cat that he had sent on his master’s ship to be sold had earned him a fortune because it had killed all the mice in the King of Barbary’s palace. Sadly, Dick Whittington’s cat missed one mouse. Wonder of wonders, America adopted that mouse after occupying his country and has appointed him twice Lord Mayor of Kabul so far. It expects him to kill cats – a pipedream to beat all pipedreams!
The cats the poor hapless rodent is required to kill belong to the fierce breeds known as ‘Taliban’ and ‘Al Qaeda’.
