'Taliban a common threat to India, Pakistan, United States'
India, Pakistan and the United States face a common threat for the first time ever in the Taliban, US special representative Richard Holbrooke said in Delhi as he wound up a fact-finding trip to the region.
"For the first time in 60 years, your country, Pakistan and the US all face an enemy that poses direct threats to our leaderships, our capitals and our people," he said after meeting Pranab Mukherjee.

In a meeting at the US ambassador's residence, Holbrooke wanted to know what India would do in case it faced another Mumbai-style attack.
