Taliban oppressing northwestern Pakistanis
2009-04-21
[Iran Press TV Latest] Taliban militants ban all political organizations and armed groups in Bajaur Agency in northwest Pakistan, giving those active in such fields two days to surrender.

A spokesman of Tehrik-e-Taliban Maulve Omar told reporters on Sunday that despite ceasefire some political and armed groups disturbed law and order in the agency, therefore, they were banned. The ban comes after two Taliban militants were killed in an armed clash between Tehrik-e-Nefaz-e-Shariat-e-Muhamadi group and Taliban in Mahmond area in Bajaur tribal region on Sunday. Taliban spokesman said they arrested 60 members of Tehrik-e-Nefaz-e-Shariat-e-Muhamadi (TNSM) in the agency after the clash.

The TNSM members are Afghan Taliban, who are jeopardizing peace in the agency and they have no relations with Tehrik-e-Taliban.
Omar said that the decision of banning armed organizations in the area was taken in a meeting of Shura (Council) and gave two days deadline to such groups to wind up their activities. "After failing, we took action against TNSM group in Mahmond area," he said, adding that the TNSM members are Afghan Taliban, who are jeopardizing peace in the agency and they have no relations with Tehrik-e-Taliban.

Omar had recently said that Taliban would review their ceasefire and warned both government and tribal elders to stay in 'limits' and act upon the peace deal in the agency. If the government violated the peace deal, signed with the elders, then the militants would review their unilateral ceasefire in the area, he added.

Tribal elders had signed a 28-point agreement with the administration after militants declared unilateral ceasefire in Bajaur Agency in February.

#3  I have to put a bit of conjecture in this answer,TW

1. They are NOT permitted to learn history, only writings in the "Holy Book"
2. They're uninterested in any History (Excuse me, INFIDEL PROPAGANDA) where they lose wars.
2.Truth is alien to their way of thinking (Holy Brainwashing)
4 ALLAH WILL PREVAIL, despite hundreds of thousands of times Allah Did NOT.

In short they're deliberately mental cripples.
