yes the statement is significant because of who is making it
what the bnp want to do with minorities is not in the same league as what pakistan is doing and helping to do!
the statement also absolves talibs of any blame for starting the war.
neither you nor pakistan has a leg to stand on regarding this matter. ex president, musharraf, has said pakistan is only conducting the war to stop itself being bombed into the stone age by the US! tsk tsk
