Yep...Pakistan has their very own "Harry Reid" ...you remember old Harry....good old Harry "We've Lost" Reid? Well, Pakistan's version...the opposition leader in the Pakistani assembly says that any military operation in North Waziristan would make the country insecure. Apparently he's cool with North Waziristan teeming to the rafters with Taliban, Haqqani Network and al Qaeda jihadis. Apparently he's fine with hundreds of civilians dying there each month from the jihadi bombs and beheadings.
The story comes from DAWN.
