   ISLAMABAD, Oct 16 (Reuters) - Pakistan President
Pervez Musharraf and U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell on Tuesday
revived a stagnant relationship with agreement that any future Afghan
government should include the opposition as well as Taliban members.
"Former king Zahir Shah, political leaders, moderate Taliban leaders,
elements from the (opposition) Northern Alliance, tribal elders, Afghans
living outside their country ... all can play a role in this government,"
Musharraf told a joint news conference.
   Powell recognised that the
hardline Taliban, now under attack from U.S. forces hunting down Osama bin
Laden, said there were some moderate elements of the Taliban and they would
have a role to play in Afghanistan's future.
   "The term Taliban defines
the current regime," Powell said. "But it also defines a group of
individuals or group of people.
    "If you got rid of the regime, there
will still be those who might find their teachings and feeling and believes
of that movement are still very important and to the extent that they are
willing to participate in the development of a new Afghanistan."
Powell, in Pakistan to shore up support for the U.S.-led action against
Afghanistan in pursuit of Saudi-born militant bin Laden and his Taliban
protectors, said military action would not stop until all objectives had
been met, but he hoped it would be short -- something Musharraf also
wanted.
   "We are focusing today on the terrorist threats
eminating from Afghanistan and al Qaeda organisation of Osama    bin
Laden," Powell said. "Obviously we want it to be short ... precise."
SHORT, SHARP OPERATION
   Musharraf agreed. "One would like to say that
certainly a majority of the people are against the operation in
Afghanistan," he said.
   "They would like to see this operation to be
terminated as fast as possible and that is what I would urge the coalition
-- to achieve the military objectives and terminate the operation."
   But
he said most Pakistanis supported his decision to back the global alliance
against terrorism.
   "However the majority of the people of Pakistan are
with my actions," he said. Street protests against the action have been
muted.
   Nevertheless, Powell arrived in the Muslim country amid intense
security as radical Islamic groups that back Afghanistan's ruling Taliban
and are furious that Musharraf is backing the military action in a
neighbouring Afghanistan called a general strike. The response was
lacklustre.
   Musharraf said the Taliban had brought their plight on
themselves.
   "We regret the government of Afghanistan jeopardised
interests of millions of its own people," he said. "There is enormous
pressure. But I can't tell you when this pressure will cause the collapse."
Powell said it was only a matter of time before the Taliban collapsed, but
he would not speculate on when that might be.
   "The regime is under
enormous pressure. The neighbours that it has have turned against it. It is
subject of efforts of the entire international community."
   The United
States on Tuesday sent one of the most fearsome weapons in its arsenal to
strafe the stronghold of Afghanistan's ruling Taliban in southern Kandahar
city as U.S. force moved in closer on their prey.
 
   THE KASHMIR
ISSUE
   Powell also said a peaceful resolution of the Kashmir dispute was
central to ending hostility between nuclear rivals India and Pakistan and
urged the two to begin a dialogue.
   Powell's visit marked a new phase in
relations strained for several years and as he was en route to New Delhi on
a trip to both of the world's newest nuclear powers and who both lie on the
edge of the battle in Afghanistan.
   "We discussed ways to promote
stability in South Asia, which as you all know is a critically important
part of the world," Powell said.
   Powell spoke just hours after the
countries fought a fierce gunbattle across the disputed border in Kashmir,
the first hostilities in 10 months between the long-time foes.
   "We,
too, believe that the Kashmir issue is central to the relationship and can
be resolved if all parties engage with a
