Afghan President Hamid Karzai allegedly believes that the U.S. is behind insurgent attacks in Afghanistan,

According to people close to Karzai, who spoke to The Washington Post on condition of anonymity, the Afghan leader is compiling a list of Taliban strikes he believes the U.S. orchestrated in order to weaken his government and distract from American drone strikes that have killed local civilians. Civilian drone strike deaths have been a point of contention, understandably and publicly, for Karzai.

One top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, Gen. Joseph F. Dunford Jr., also spoke to the Post about the accusation, saying:

Any suggestion that the U.S. has been involved in any way in suicide attacks or deliberate attacks on Afghan civilians is ludicrous..

Of course he could say the same about 911?

Any suggestion that the U.S. has been involved in any way in WTC attack or deliberate killed American civilians is ludicrous..

Actually, what Hamid Karzai is observing should not come as a big "surprise" (purpose is about putting Pakistan in flames? - very "The Grand Chess Game" logic)

"On April 20, I was on duty at Kabul airport customs terminal; I witnessed a British intelligence officer who, along with three British militaries tried to get away with a rather large box delivered to Kabul by ISAF plane, with no customs inspection. I knew this officer by sight since he was a frequent visitor at Kabul airport. I asked the British military to show their cargo documents; they refused to do it. When I persisted in my request, they said I had no right to demand anything from them since they enjoyed diplomatic immunity. When I told them my boss's order bans me from allowing cargo out without examination, a squabble emerged between us. I ordered my assistants never permit the British vehicle out of the terminal gates until I contacted my boss. At this moment, one of the British militaries put his gun against the chest of a police officer in an attempt to open the gates. The other police officer seized the box handle and pulled it. The box fell on the ground and flung open. I was amazed to discover that it contained at least 15 and maybe even 20 "belts" for suicide bombers.

    In his refusal to sign the Afghan-US security pact which would enable some US troops to stay in Afghanistan after 2014, Afghan President Hamid Karzai is signaling a clear message to the United States: Afghanistan does not need US troops on its ground any more.

    On Sunday, Karzai issued a statement claiming that US-NATO forces were withholding fuel and other material support from their Afghan counterparts in an effort to force him to sign the security agreement.

    “From this moment on, America’s searching of houses, blocking of roads and streets, military operations are over, and our people are free in their country,” he said.

    “If Americans raid a house again, then this agreement will not be signed,” he said, with the American ambassador, James B. Cunningham, in the audience.

    In another diatribe on Karzai, Dianne Feinstein, a senior Democratic senator, described the Afghan president as “a cipher”. She said Karzai is “the victim of what thought occurs to him right at the moment based on some anger that he feels about something that may not even be related.” 

    Tom Donilon, Obama's national security adviser until earlier this year, has said Karzai was “reckless” for risking a situation in which no US or allied troops would remain in his country after next year.

    I believe Iraq got enough of "US or allied troops"

      The CIA sees such a pullout as a huge problem, after the Pakistani government chased them out of airfields they were using for drones and forced them to relocate into Afghanistan. A withdrawal would effectively stall the drone war, and it might never recover.

      Officials say that the CIA would not be able to retain the massive drone program in an unoccupied Afghanistan, nor would they be able to continue the job of bribing people in Pakistan’s tribal areas into giving them targets to kill.
