Army won’t act against Haqqani network, says Samiul Haq
[DAWN] Defence of Pakistain Council (DPC) chief Maulana Samiul Haq
...the Godfather of the Taliban, leader of his own faction of the JUI. Known as Mullah Sandwich for his habit of having two young boys at a time...
said on Wednesday that the Pakistain Army would not take any action against the Haqqani network.

Addressing a presser at the National Press Club, where he lambasted US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
’s recent remarks about Pakistain, he said that those he was affiliated with "were still fighting the Americans in Afghanistan".

In the most dire warning ever issued by a US president to Pakistain, Mr Trump accused Pakistain of "shelter[ing] the same organizations that try every single day to kill our people", despite being paid billions and billions of dollars.

Maulana Samiul Haq, who is the chief of his own faction of the Jamaat Ulema Islam (JUI-S), also issued a call for ’jihad’ to every section of society.

When asked about terrorist attacks being carried out in Pakistain by local actors affiliated with religious groups, the Maulana claimed that no Pak was involved in killing innocent people.

"We should hang Kulbushan [Jadhav] and other spies at once," he said, adding: "The West has been defaming jihad, [equating it] with terrorism, but we need to raise a call to jihad and ask each prayer leader in every mosque to preach the importance of jihad, so that our youth is prepared all the time."

He said: "We are fighting the Americans in Afghanistan and those who cannot fight are waging jihad with their words and pens; the whole nation needs to rise up to defeat the West."

At his presser, the DPC leader took aim at the recent US policy statement on Afghanistan, Pakistain and India.

He alleged that the US was defaming Pakistain for the ills of the Afghan government which, he said, had connived with the CIA and Indian intelligence, killing civilians and security personnel in Pakistain.

He praised China for its prompt reaction to the US president’s speech and said that the leaders of Pakistain should learn how to stand against US designs from North Korea and Iran.

The above is clearly evidence the strategy is working.
