AP - Afghan President Hamid Karzai pushed his international partners on Thursday to take stronger action against terrorist sanctuaries outside of Afghanistan. In a clear reference to havens in Pakistan, Karzai said: "The international community is here to fight terrorism, but there is danger elsewhere and they are not acting." Pressure is building on Pakistan to escalate the fight against militants on its soil, especially since the release of more than 90,000 leaked U.S. military documents posted Sunday on the web by WikiLeaks. The trove of U.S. intelligence reports alleged close connections between Pakistan's intelligence agency and Taliban militants fighting Afghan and NATO troops in Afghanistan.

Abdullah Hussain Haroon, Pakistan's ambassador to the United Nations, spoke to CBS News Foreign Affairs Analyst Pamela Falk Thursday about the thousands of pages of classified U.S. documents released this week by the website WikiLeaks. Haroon also said U.S. war strategy needs to change for America to win. "In my personal opinion, the way the war is being fought, it doesn't seem winnable," Haroon said.
