Meanwhile, Karzai makes empty threats
No way he would ever do this, but it does represent a new rhetorical level.
He also directly threatened Baitullah Mehsud and Mullah Omar.
Afghan President Hamid Karzai threatened Sunday to send Afghan troops across the border to fight militants in Pakistan, a forceful warning to insurgents and the Pakistani government that his country is fed up with cross-border attacks.
He also directly threatened Baitullah Mehsud and Mullah Omar.

I think it's at least 50/50 that he would do cross-border raids, because it's what his masters want him to do.
Obviously, NATO would be "forced" to support the Afghan troops and it would quickly become a NATO effort with token Afghan participation.
It would also serve to show Karzai's "independence" and the Afghan Army's "readiness", while providing the ideal pretext for an invasion of the FATA.
On the other hand, the whole thing could just be the opium talking out of Karzai's mouth.
I may be cynical, but I see Karzai as completely reliant on NATO money and muscle to keep his little protection racket viable. He's always been far more compliant than Maliki or Musharraf. I don't expect much backbone from him.
