Afghanistan
8 direct lines from Kabul to ISI
2001-12-19
  • Northern Alliance forces moving into Interior Ministry offices found eight direct phone links to Islamabad, proving close ties between the Taliban and Pakistan's military intelligence service. Gen. Niamaullah Jalili, the head of Afghanistan's Secret Intelligence Service, said they were run as local phone call lines, not long distance. This proved the Taliban closely cooperated with Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), he insisted.
    Hmm. Yes. You might say that. Gen. Qureshi will of course say it's "proposterous," but we're ready to believe six preposterous things before breakfast.
