Patraeus to Pakistan: Destroy taliban in 2 weeks or else

Or else the US will have to think about it's next move. I hope the military has a plan b just in case Pakistan fails to destroy the taliban.Times of India

WASHINGTON: Stepping up pressure on Pakistan to take concrete action against the Taliban, the US has given Islamabad two weeks time to eliminate the insurgents from its soil before Washington determines what it will do next.

"The Pakistanis have run out of excuses" and are "finally getting serious" about combating the threat from Taliban and al-Qaida extremists operating out of the country's northwest, the general said.

Criticizing Pakistan's attitude towards fighting the insurgents, Petraeus said "we have heard it all before" that Pakistan was doing its best to eliminate the Taliban threat.
He said that he is looking forward to see concrete action by Islamabad in the next two weeks before determining the US' next course of action, which is presently set on propping up the Pakistani government and military with counter-insurgency training and aid.[...]

The sources also told the channel that no one in Washington has an "understanding of Taliban's true objective".

I can tell you right now what the taliban's objective is....To overthrow the Pakistani government and rule Pakistan under shariah law.
