Musharraf says Taliban leader Mullah Omar has "never been in Pakistan"
2011-11-10
[One Pakistan] London, Former President Pervez Perv Musharraf
... former dictator of Pakistain, who was less dictatorial and corrupt than any Pak civilian government to date ...
 has told BBC HARDtalk's Stephen Sackur that the Taliban leader Mullah Omar
... a minor Pashtun commander in the war against the Soviets who made good as leader of the Taliban. As ruler of Afghanistan, he took the title Leader of the Faithful. The imposition of Pashtunkhwa on the nation institutionalized ignorance and brutality already notable for its own fair share of ignorance and brutality...
 is not and has "never been in Pakistain".
"And neither was Osama bin Laden!"
He agreed that the relationship between Pakistain and the United States has "fundamentally broken down", saying it is at the "lowest ebb".

#3  Omar was old a decade ago. Though only 52, by Afghan and Pakistan standards that is ancient. Life expectancy at birth in Afghanistan is 45.
