More on the Haqqani accusations...

Pakistan's Interior Minister Rehman Malik has contended that the US should share the blame for the rise of the Haqqani network as the CIA created the

"The Haqqani network was trained and produced by the CIA," he said. The group did not originate in Pakistan and the US should not now speak about "things which happened 20 years ago", he said yesterday.
