Vice President Joe Biden today acknowledged that some people in Pakistan's intelligence community had supported the Taliban, but he said that situation is changing.

"That's been a problem in the past, it's a problem we're dealing with, and [it] is changing," Biden said in an interview that aired on NBC's "Today" television show. The interview with Ann Curry was taped Wednesday while Biden visited Fort Drum, New York.

Biden discussed the controversial WikiLeaks' Web posting of more than 70,000 classified documents on the war in Afghanistan spanning from January 2004 to December 2009.

In one portion of the leaked documents, there are allegations that members of the Pakistani intelligence agency supported the Taliban while accepting U.S. funding to fight against them.

"All those leaks predate our policy," Biden said. "Not one leak is consistent with our policy announced in December." He added that no U.S. money was diverted from its stated purposes in Pakistan. However, intelligence sources claim Biden is attempting to shift the blame and that Pakistani intelligence officers indeed funneled money to the Taliban.

"Biden conveniently and intentionally overlooks the fact that U.S. taxpayer money helped to kill American servicemen," said former intelligence officer and law enforcement official Sid Franes.

"And our supposed watchdogs -- the news media -- are helping Obama and Biden spin the story to let them off the hook," said Franes.

"When will this administration stop blaming Bush for mistakes, while claiming Bush's successes as their own?" asks political strategist Mike Baker.

In previous speeches, the Vice President gave credit for the Iraq surge's success to President Barack Obama, according to Baker

Meanwhile, insurgents killed six Afghan civilians and wounded three more in roadside bomb attacks in southern Afghanistan yesterday, military officials reported.

Four civilians were killed and three others were wounded when a bomb detonated in Zabul province's Mizan district. The wounded were airlifted to a military medical facility in Qalat.

In Nimroz province's Khash Rod district, two Afghan civilians were killed when their vehicle struck a roadside bomb. Earlier yesterday, numerous civilians reportedly were killed when their bus struck a roadside bomb in the Khash Rod district, officials said.

International Security Assistance Force Joint Command officials said the United Nations recently reported that roadside bomb incidents increased by 94 percent in the first four months of 2010 compared to the same period last year.
