ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice says she is satisfied with Pakistan's commitment to fight terrorism and its readiness to pursue any lead in the attacks in India.

Pakistan's young civilian government, she said Thursday, is very committed to the war on terror and does not want to be associated with terrorist elements in any way.

The United States is increasing pressure on Pakistan's shaky government, sending two top officials to Islamabad in as many days to insist that Pakistan hide nothing about the origins of a terrorist attack in Mumbai that India has blamed squarely on Pakistani militants.
