government to raise the issue with the UN and NATO, and also expressed concerns
over the activities of private US security firms operating inside Pakistan's territory.

after Pakistan started a military offensive against the militants in South Waziristan,"

mediaperson after the meeting, Rabbani said the committee may summon Foreign Minister
Shah Mehmood Qureshi to brief it about the steps taken to counter the internal
