It has happened the same day as this has been published: Taliban Leader Flaunts Power Inside Pakistan @ NYTimes.com.
the usually reclusive leader of the Pakistani Taliban, Baitullah Mehsud, held a news conference of his own, in the same region, to show just who was in charge.

He rolled up in an expensive-looking Toyota pickup packed with heavily armed Taliban fighters, according to the Pakistani journalists invited to attend. Squatting on the floor of a government school, Mr. Mehsud, clasping a new Kalashnikov, announced he would press his fight against the American military across the border in Afghanistan.

“Islam does not recognize boundaries,” he told the journalists, in accounts published in Pakistani newspapers and reported by the BBC. “There can be no deal with the United States."
What has to say Zapatero and new Spanish Minister of Defense, Chacón, about this? Does anyone consider how "special" is to see the Taliban leader holding a news conference in Pakistan, while announcing he is going to press his fight against the military forces in Afghanistan?

Un atentado contra la embajada danesa en Islamabad ha matado a seis personas y ha herido a docenas, mientras el líder talibán, Baitullah Mehsud, que normalmente se esconde dio ayer una rueda de prensa en la que declaró que "el Islam no reconoce fronteras. No puede haber ningún acuerdo con los EEUU", mientras añadía que endurecería su lucha contra los militares americanos en Afganistán.

¿Qué tienen que decir a esto Zapatero y la Ministra Chacón? ¿A nadie le parece raro que el líder talibán dé una conferencia de prensa en Paquistán, mientras anuncia que va a endurecer su lucha en Afganistán?
