My apologies if this is a double post here--I can't find this in the forum. And this has been a prominent news.
Anyway, is Karzai bluffing (again)? I mean, the guy can't survive two days without Nato support. His message is unusually harsh. And looks like most 'Recommended' Comments at NYT are supportive of him in a way.

Speaking at a news conference at the presidential palace in Kabul, Mr. Karzai declined to say what actions the government would or could take, saying only that Afghanistan “has a lot of ways of stopping it.”

In an admonishment that carried an air of threat, he said NATO forces were on the verge of being considered occupiers rather than allies.

“If they continue their attacks on our houses, then their presence will change from a force that is fighting against terrorism to a force that is fighting against the people of Afghanistan,” he said. “And in that case, history shows what Afghans do with trespassers and with occupiers.”
 
LOL, yea he controls NATO, they are gonn listen to this brainless

Well, this news made it prominently to both Washington Post and NY Times today.
May be during Pakistani PM Gilani+Army Chief's last visit there a few weeks ago (with the alleged China backing) made Karzai change a bit?
