Afghanistan: Seeking Omar

Filed under: FrontPage | Afghanistan — by Bob Zuber @ 2:35 am

As reported by Al Jazeera, there are new tensions between Afghaistan and Pakistan over the whereabouts of Mullah Omar: “Kamal Hyder, Al Jazeera’s correspondent in Islamabad, said; “For people in Pakistan, Karzai’s song remains the same.

“People will tell you he has been accusing Pakistan for months now and they’ve also been saying perhaps it is because Karzai has been unable to rein-in his own country.”

The Taliban has gathered strength over the last year, carrying out near-daily attacks in the south and east of the country despite an increase in the number of Nato-led troops. ”

In Dante’s Hell those guilty of the sin of cupidity are in the ninth circle, frozen in the Lake of Ice. Having cared for nothing but self in life, they are encased in icy Self for eternity. By making people focus only on oneself in this way, Satan and his followers turn their eyes away from the harmony of love that unites all creatures.
