al-Qaeda Seeks Taliban Coup
SLAMABAD – Pakistan is worried that al-Qaida is trying to install its own "chief terrorist" as the head of Pakistan's Taliban following the apparent killing of the group's leader in a CIA missile strike, a top official said Monday.Wait a minute, i thought this place was famous for not allowing "outsiders" to run things? Now they are going to let a bunch of Arab "guests" take over.Meanwhile, one of the militants believed to be a potential successor phoned The Associated Press to dispel reports that he was killed during a clash among those vying to lead the group. The militant, Hakimullah, insisted once again that Pakistani Taliban chief Baitullah Mehsud was alive and said the insurgent group remained united....
...It will take some time for them to regroup," Malik said. "The other thing which is a bit worrying is that al-Qaida is getting grouped in the same place, and now they are trying to find out somebody to install him as the leader, as the chief terrorist, in that area."
Maybe this will backfire on al-Qaeda as the locals realize their Arab friends have abused their hospitality and have brought nothing but death and war to the area.
Expel the foreign Arab crusaders from Waziristan!
Sorry I got carried away there ;)
