| [The News (Pak) Top Stories] Pakistani and Afghan jehadi groups have decided to start "battle of evil and just", as the Afghan fighters assured Pakistani militants of complete support in their fight against Pak army in South Waziristan. According to sources, it was decided in a meeting of the commanders of al-Qaeda, Hakmatyar group, Afghan Taliban and Pakistani jehadi organisations, which was held in Afghanistan. The meeting decided that the Pakistan security forces, which have been helping the American forces, would also be targeted and the Afghan fighters, who have been fighting in Afghanistan for the last eight years, for the first time decided to send manpower to Waziristan in support of Pakistan militants. The meeting also decided to intensify the 'jehad' against US and allied forces and codenamed the new battle as "battle of evil and just". The militants under new war strategy would avoid targeting public places. The Pakistani militants briefed the meeting about Pakistani forces actions against fighters, sources said and added that all Pakistani jehadi organisations accepted Hakimullah Mahsud as their amir and vowed to continue "jehad" under his leadership. The meeting was also informed about details of killing of families of three commanders in drone attacks in South and North Waziristan agencies. The meeting also devised guerrilla war strategy. |

| #2 Pakistani and Afghan jehadi groups have decided to start "battle of evil and just" Well, I most certainly am impressed. For once they aren't claiming the imminence of the Caliphate. It sounds like the meeting had quite an ambitious agenda, nonetheless. Were any squirrels or horse flies spotted in the vicinity? One can't be too careful, you know. |
