I present two inside views of Afghanistan conflict here: Michael Ware reports on the continuing and frustrating offensive against militants all over Afghanistan, but particularly along the border with Pakistan. Michael makes a very strong statement. He says, “quite simply, America cannot win the war in Afghanistan.“ Then a surprise: you’ll see Pakistani military officials who are actually in contact with Taliban leaders. Are they willing to mediate talks that would end the war? Then an update from Atia Abawi, reporting live from Kabul. She’s been embedded with U.S. Marines fighting in Helmand Province, and tells me about a very important and poignant moment from this week’s large-scale offensive in southwest Afghanistan. Watch the clip, then I want to hear from you: how does this notion of NEGOTIATING with the Taliban sit with you? I know how it sits with me. Leave a comment. Let’s have a conversation.

Rep. Peter King (R-NY) in 2007.
 U.S. Representative Peter King (R-NY) wants the media to “knock out the psycho-babble” and drop the coverage surrounding the death and funeral of Michael Jackson. But he said more. “He was a child molester. He was a pedophile. And to be giving this much coverage to him day in and day out, what does it say about us as a country?” Read more and watch the video of Rep. King’s comments here. We need your opinion. Answer this quick poll, we will tabulate the results, and show them on today’s Sanchez show at 3PM ET on CNN. Filed under: Quick Poll Questions July 1, 2009

And by “OUR” fault, I mean CNN’s fault. That’s what the Iranian government is saying! Tehran blames the western media in general, and CNN, The New York Times, the BBC, and Newsweek magazine in particular. Iranian officials believe these news organizations are intentionally stirring up trouble during the country’s post-presidential election unrest. Now, they say, a Canadian citizen working for Newsweek magazine in Iran has “confessed” to those charges. Maziar Bahari was arrested in late June, and his magazine is of course demanding his immediate release. Iranian officials say Bahari made that “confession” during a prison news conference. Has anyone seen that alleged news conference? No. Here’s Mazier’s story on CNN.COM. Watch this clip: Rick Sanchez interviews Newsweek’s Mideast Regional Editor. Christopher Dickey calls those allegations against our colleague “preposterous”. Filed under: Clips From The Show Posted: 09:23 AM ET
