After we invited them!
"Iranians are welcomed into coalition talks on Afghan strategy; Presence shows shared interest in region’s stability" by Karen DeYoung, Washington Post | October 19, 2010
ROME — Iran for the first time joined a US and NATO-dominated coordinating group on Afghanistan yesterday, sending a delegation to participate in discussions here on coalition military strategy that included a closed-door report by General David Petraeus, the top commander in Afghanistan.
Iran’s presence, along with representation from nearly a dozen other Muslim countries as well as the Organization of the Islamic Conference, “shows we are on a common path. We are not alone,’’ said Michael Steiner, Germany’s special envoy for Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Richard Holbrooke, the Obama administration’s top Afghanistan representative, said Washington was “asked whether we had any problem’’ with Iran attending, and “we said no. We recognize that Iran has a role to play in the peaceful settlement of the situation in Afghanistan.’’
Cooperation on Afghanistan, he said, had no bearing on US efforts to curtail Iran’s nuclear program and other issues that are “discussed elsewhere.’’
Yeah, in Tel Aviv.
And look who is TROTTED OUT of his GRAVE AGAIN!!!
Holbrooke discounted reports yesterday indicating US officials had new information on the location of Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, believed to be hiding in Pakistan. “Hardly a day goes by when somebody doesn’t say they know where bin Laden is,’’ he said. “There is nothing new.’’
Nope.

Mark Sedwill, the top NATO civilian in Afghanistan, emphasized that the coalition “will still have troops in Afghanistan after 2014’’ as trainers and advisers.
You got FOUR MORE YEARS in you, America?
But the hope, he said, is that by then the Taliban threat will be sufficiently reduced by combat and political reconciliation.
I'm SICK of FALSE HOPES and SHIT STORIES, sorry!

KABUL, Afghanistan — The bag of money was part of a secret, steady stream of Iranian cash intended to buy the loyalty of Umar Daudzai, President Hamid Karzai’s chief of staff and his most trusted confidant, and promote Iran’s interests in the presidential palace, according to Afghan and Western officials here. Iran uses its influence to help drive a wedge between the Afghans and their US and NATO benefactors, they said.
No, that is more of an AmeriKan mode of operation.

Someone else likes bags of money, too!

That's even worse.
The payments, which officials said total millions of dollars, form an off-the-books fund that Daudzai and Karzai have used to pay Afghan lawmakers, tribal elders, and even Taliban commanders to secure their allegiance, the officials said.
And HOW MANY CIA AGENTS are EMBEDDED in the Afghan government?
"The CIA has multiple members of the Afghan government on its payroll in order to help it keep track of various factions within the Afghan government, according to former US officials."
Yeah, but it is OKAY for US TO DO IT!
God, the RANK STEBNCH of AmeriKan hypocrisy is f***ing GAGGING!!!!!!!!!!!
“It’s a basically a presidential slush fund,’’ a Western official in Kabul said of the Iranian-supplied money. “Daudzai’s mission is to advance Iranian interests.’’
And HOW MANY BILLIONS has AmeriKa poured in there?
Did IRAN INVADE and OCCUPY over DAMNABLE LIES!!??
The Western and Afghan officials interviewed for this article spoke on the condition of anonymity, citing the delicacy of discussing the financial dealings of Karzai and his aide. The sources said they were motivated by a concern that Daudzai was helping to poison relations between Karzai and the United States.
Hey, look, AmeriKa and its CIA DOES IT ALL the TIME!!
I am SO SICK of this RANK WAR-MONGERING by the New York Times!

Yeah, that EXPLAINS EVERYTHING!
Daudzai and Karzai declined to respond to written questions about their relationship with Iran. An aide to Daudzai said the allegations were “rubbish.’’
That's what you WILL FIND in the New York Times -- and where it belongs!
Iran’s ambassador to Afghanistan, Feda Hussein Maliki, also declined to answer questions. A spokesman for Maliki called the allegations “devilish gossip by the West and foreign media.’’
And we know who pulls their strings and for what agenda.
The Iranian payments are intended to secure the allegiance of Daudzai, a former ambassador to Iran who consistently pushes an anti-Western line on Karzai, the officials said. Daudzai briefs Karzai each morning.
And HOW MUCH ALLEGIANCE has the CIA BOUGHT?
“Karzai knows that without the US, he is finished,’’ an associate of Karzai said. “But it’s like voodoo. Daudzai is the source of all the problems with the US. He is systematically feeding him misinformation, disinformation, and wrong information .’’
He should START HIS OWN NEWSPAPER because that is ALL WE GET here in AmeriKa!
This blog is PROOF of it!
The payments to Daudzai illustrate the degree to which the Iranian government has penetrated Karzai’s inner circle despite his presumed allegiance to the United States and the other NATO countries, which have sustained him with military forces and billions of dollars since the Taliban’s ouster since 2001.
This is MAKING ME ILL, readers! This is TOTAL WAR PROPAGANDA!
The IRAN ATTACK must be ON for AFTER the U.S. ELECTIONS; otherwise, the U.S. MEDIA would not be PUTTING OUT this SHIT!
Earlier this year, Karzai invited the Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, to the Presidential Palace, where Ahmadinejad gave a virulently anti-American speech. When Ahmadinejad visited Kabul, he brought two boxes of cash with him, an Afghan official said....
Accounts vary as to how much Iranian money flow into the presidential palace. An Afghan political leader said he believed that Daudzai received between $1 million and $2 million every other month. A former diplomat who served in Afghanistan said sometimes single payments totaled as much as $6 million.
And HOW MANY BILLIONS have YOU SENT THERE, AmeriKan taxpayers?
A senior NATO officer, speaking on condition of anonymity, declined to discuss whether Daudzai was receiving money from Iran. But he said the Iranian government was conducting an aggressive campaign inside Afghanistan to undermine the US and NATO mission and to gain influence in politics.
You see, it is OKAY if AmeriKa (or Israel) does it, but anybody else!!!!
The NATO officer said Iran’s intelligence agencies were playing both sides of the conflict, providing financing, weapons, and training to the Taliban.
Yeah, right, the same Taliban they almost went to war with and that views Shi'ites as infidels to be killed.
And NATO has SOME NERVE pointing the finger at Iran!
See: The Boston Globe's Invisible Ink: False Flags Flying High in Afghanistan
Sure is a GOOD WAY to keep a WAR GOING, huh?
And CUI BONO?
Iranian agents also financed the political campaigns of several Afghans who ran in last month’s parliamentary election, the NATO officer said.
As if U.S. organizations have never given money to... awww, what's the use?

Now come the subtle slanders from the same crew that brought you that last hunk of shit:
"Karzai admits that his office gets millions in cash from Iran; Afghan leader firm on ousting contractors; Hostile remarks push rift with US" by Dexter Filkins, New York Times | October 26, 2010
KABUL, Afghanistan — President Hamid Karzai acknowledged yesterday that he regularly receives bags of cash from the Iranian government in payments amounting to millions of dollars, as evidence mounted of a worsening rift between his government and its US and NATO supporters.
During a rambling and often hostile news conference, Karzai also accused the United States of financing the killing of Afghans by paying private security contractors to guard buildings and convoys in Afghanistan.
That is what this WHOLE THING has been!
WAR PROFITEERING and the KILLING of INNOCENT Afghans!
He has declined to postpone a December deadline he set for ending the use of private security forces despite urgent pleas from Western organizations, including charities, that need protection.
See: Karzai Closes Down U.S. Contractors
Well, not all of 'em.
His statements were the latest indication that US relations with Karzai were badly frayed, despite intensive diplomatic efforts to mend ties and improve governance in Afghanistan. The tensions threaten to undermine President Obama’s goal of handing responsibility for the war against the Taliban to Karzai and the Afghan military, allowing the United States to begin withdrawing troops next year.
“They do give us bags of money — yes, yes, it is done,’’ Karzai said, responding to questions about a report in The New York Times on Sunday that Iran sends regular cash payments to his chief of staff, Umar Daudzai. “We are grateful to the Iranians for this.’’
“Patriotism has a price,’’ he said.
Afghan and Western officials said the Iranian payments were intended to drive a wedge between Karzai and the United States and NATO.
On Sunday, Karzai held a volatile meeting with the NATO commander, General David H. Petraeus, as well as other senior Afghan and Western officials. Karzai stormed out of the session, saying that he did not need the West’s help, according to people knowledgeable about the confrontation.
How much you want to bet KARZAI is ASSASSINATED SOON?
To be blamed on Taliban, of course!
Also see: Why Obama Went to Afghanistan
I guess he wouldn't need our help.
At the news conference, Karzai lashed out at the US military, implying that US officials had leaked information about Iranian payments to The Times because of disagreements over the private security companies.
Oh, they would never do that, and the Times would never engage in such obvious agenda-pushing!
The private security companies, many of which are paid for by the United States, are spreading chaos and unjustly killing Afghan civilians, Karzai said.
He got that right!
“The money dealing with the private security companies starts in the hallways of the US government,’’ Karzai said. “Then they send the money for killing here.’’
Looks like EVERYONE is getting REALLY TIRED of having us around, Americans!!
***************
In many respects, Karzai's sharp words reflect a widespread feeling among Afghans, especially in insecure areas, that foreign security firms are running roughshod over average Afghans and intruding in culturally unacceptable ways on their daily lives.
Oh, he is SPEAKING for the PEOPLE this time, huh?
No wonder he is getting the NYT hatchet!
The Afghan president said security companies were responsible for a litany of bloody crimes against the country’s people.
Yup!
“When this money comes [to] Afghanistan, it causes insecurity in Afghan homes and causes the killing of Afghan children and causes explosions and terrorism in Afghanistan,’’ Karzai said.
HE KNOWS!!
Karzai is UNFURLING the BANNER of FALSE FLAGS!
HE KNOWS!!!
I hate to be the one to tell you, dear readers, however "terrorism" is a WESTERN INTELLIGENCE OPERATION!
The "terrorists" are ALL GOVERNMENT CREATED, FUNDED, and DIRECTED!
He leveled several accusations against Western interests in Afghanistan and the media, and said security companies were interchangeable with the Taliban. “In fact we don’t know how many of the explosions are the fault of the Taliban and how much by them,’’ said Karzai, referring to the security companies.
Oh, HE KNOWS, people!!
The WHOLE WORLD KNOWS about FALSE FLAG TERROR!
The only people who DON'T KNOW are the IGNORANT AmeriKan people thanks to their LYING, WAR-PROMOTING, Muslim-hating MASS MEDIA!!
The Iranian payments are another significant source of tension.
Notice how quickly the NYT dropped the contractor issue without further investigation?

Oh, they are IN ON IT, huh?
Karzai discounted their importance, asserting that the cash transfers were well known and that he had even disclosed them to Obama’s predecessor, George W. Bush, during a meeting at Camp David.
And we never heard a word.
Karzai says he uses the money to pay expenses incurred in the course of doing his job, including for “special expenses and helping people.’’
Karzai said others give him cash payments as well, including the United States.
Yeah, but THAT IS OKAY!
It is OKAY for EMPIRE to TRAVEL the PLANET and BUY PEOPLE OFF -- or SMASH their NATIONS if they do not capitulate to our every demand (or even if they do; ask Saddam Hussein next time you see him).
He said Daudzai, his chief of staff, is the courier for the Iranian cash amounting to about $1 million “once or twice a year.’’ The Times previously quoted Afghan and Western officials as saying that Daudzai has received regular payments from Iran that totaled about $6 million.
Asked what he does in return, Karzai said: “They have asked for good relations in return and for lots of other things in return.’’

"Iranian aid to Afghanistan has not been limited to transportation infrastructure and has included support for a variety of projects, such as the construction of a dental college and a water research facility."
We wreck shit, Amurkn -- and the IRANIAN REBUILD and RECONSTRUCT IT!
Is it ANY WONDER Afgans hate us?!
Karzai’s admission followed firm denials by members of his staff that such payments existed. Iran’s ambassador to Afghanistan also denied that he or his government passed any money to Karzai’s office.
They were behaving just as an AmeriKan administration!
Karzai’s distrust of the Western alliance has increased over recent months even as more soldiers have flowed into the country and more civilian development workers have begun to carry out projects.
Maybe it is BECAUSE of that, NYT!
His stance has left diplomats and military officials increasingly frustrated and confused.
Almost as if they were reading the newspaper everyday!

So WHEN are we ATTACKING IRAN?
