The Taliban militia is receiving military and other supplies covertly from Pakistan despite the Islamabad government's backing for American military operations. The military goods, including ammunition and fuel, are being sent with the help of elements of the Pakistani government. The trade is approved by officials of the Pakistani military and the Inter-Services Intelligence service (ISI). The trade is said to take place at night by trucks. The goods travel from Quetta to the Pakistani border town of Chaman and then on to Kandahar. Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf several weeks ago fired ISI chief Lt. Gen. Mahmood Ahmed who was viewed as insufficiently loyal. (Bill Gertz THE WASHINGTON TIMES)
