Obama administration says conflict with Karzai is resolved - washingtonpost

The Obama administration declared its problems with Afghan President Hamid Karzai to be a thing of the past on Monday, announcing that Karzai will visit Washington on May 10-14 for meetings at the White House and with the administration's top national security officials.

An Afghan "peace jirga" with political and tribal representatives -- possibly including insurgent leaders -- that Karzai had set for early next month has been postponed until May 20, following the U.S. visit, Holbrooke said.
