Pakistan will not tolerate any infringement of its territory in the name of
the war on terror, president Asif Ali Zardari said today in a clear warning
to US forces who in recent months have increasingly crossed the border to
kill Taliban and al-Qaeda terrorists.
"We will not tolerate the violation of our sovereignty and territorial
integrity by any power in the name of combating terrorism," he said in his
first address to a joint sitting of parliament.

So not some off the record, designed to keep the political peace, political
manoeuvering, but the closest he could get to promising the people of
Pakistan what will be done in the most public of forums. Will America get
the message and take it on board or will they force Zardari's hand ?
