Pakistani Delegation Meets TTP Leaders in Kabul: Sources
2022-07-29
[KhaamaPress] A delegation of the Islamic Clerics of Pakistain led by Muhammad Taqi Usmani, a well-known Pak Islamic scholar, met with the leaders of the Tahreek-e-Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
Pakistain (TTP) in Kabul, according to sources.

During the meeting with the delegation, TTP repeated their demands — including the release of its members from the Pak prisons — saying they won’t compromise in their demands, the sources said.

"Yesterday, the delegation of Islamic Clerics of Pakistain has met with Noor Wali, leader of the Taliban Pakistain in Kabul, and from my point of view the trip is an improvement," said Tahir Khan, a journalist, as TOLOnews quoted.

In a photo shown by Pak media, a number of leaders of Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain can be seen talking to the Pak delegation in Kabul.

Meanwhile,
...back at the wreckage, Captain Poindexter wished he had thought to pack sun block...
the Islamic Emirate leadership confirmed their meeting, saying Pak delegation came to Kabul to discuss bilateral relation between the two countries, but avoided further details on the matter.

"The delegation of Islamic Clerics of Pakistain have come to Kabul to discuss education, economic and bilateral relations between the two countries—there are no more details in this regard," said Bilal Karimi, deputy front man of the Islamic Emirate, as local media quoted.

However,
it's easy to be generous with someone else's money...
a number of analysts shared various thoughts on the trip Pak delegation made to Kabul in order to meet the PPT members.

"If Afghanistan can make peace between them, it will be good for Afghanistan, but the most essential thing is that Afghanistan must preserve its home," said Waheed Faqiri, political analyst.

Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP), commonly known as the Pak Taliban, is an umbrella organization of various Islamist armed bully boy groups operating along the Afghan—Pak border. Formed in 2007 by Baitullah Mehsud, its current leader is Noor Wali Mehsud, who has publicly pledged allegiance to the Afghan Taliban.

TTP has a number of demands from the government of Pakistain, which includes lifting of all sanctions imposed on its leaders, the return of the Taliban to Pakistain’s tribal areas, the release of all prisoners, and the withdrawal of the Mighty Pak Army from these areas.

#5  Deep breath, my dear. Perhaps some soothing chamomile tea? Valerian, if you want the big guns... Chai — as we in the West call that wonderful concoction simmered with milk and warm spices to differentiate from the simple brewed version we’re accustomed to — is stimulating rather than soothing, I’d think.

#4  Sorry, folks. It's a kind of withdrawal maybe. Drugs, all week. And sugar. Alcohol too.

#1  The TTP see Tak Usmani as a lap dog of Arabs. Wali Mehsud is a pashtun from Waziristan. Not as much a scholar as a fighter. Usmani has clearly been sent to appeal to their mutual moslemnity.

But the rights which run deep in the very fabric of their society, those cannot be overcome by eye-slam alone. For decades, the pashtun was treated like a menial labourer, his women for prostitution in Karachi and Lahore. The predominantly punjabi leadership of Pakistain, both military and civil, are now trying to contain the taliban's coming revenge. These people do not forget. You can't appeal to them in Allan's name and hope for them to play ball. They are getting their own 'tranches' now, and China doesn't need 'slamabad as middleman because they have been assured Taliban cooperation. Even if they do make some kind of apparent peace with 'slamabad, it'll be only so they can stab them up close. And they should.
