US officials are only making false claims about re-emergence of al-qaeda in the tribal belt of Pakistan.

The White House homeland security adviser, Frances Townsend, told Fox News Television that the United States would strikes against militant targets within Pakistan's tribal territories.

Pakistan strongly reacted to his statement. Pakistan Foreign Ministry spokeswoman told press that this ill-conceived action would undermine Pakistan’s efforts and would generate resentment in the tribal area.

Mr. Townsend’s irresponsible statement has generated anger among Pakistanis. They are of the opinion that Pakistan should stop supporting US in war on terror.

The US does not have any evidence that al-qaeda is operating in Pakistan’s tribal. These officials are making assertions to justify their illegal activities of NATO action in Afghanistan.

Look at the statement of the US director of national intelligence, Mike McConnell. He said :

"My personal view is that he's alive, but we don't know because we can't confirm it for over a year," he told NBC television on Sunday. "I believe he is in the tribal region of Pakistan."

It is evident from his statements that US officials are only making false claims about re-emergence of al-qaeda in the tribal belt of Pakistan.
