The differences among the Taliban leaders and their fighters have made the Taliban to step up
suicide kabooms in cooperation with al-Qaeda network in a bid to conceal their defeat in Afghanistan, NDS Spokesperson Lotfullah Mashal said.Mr Mashal said a number of foreign snuffies with crucial role in recent wave of attacks in northern Afghanistan have been jugged.
He said military pressures by Afghan and foreign troops have forced out snuffies to hide somewhere in Pakistain and refuse to resume their fight in Afghanistan.
"There have been differences of opinion between low and high level Taliban leaders within Taliban's Quetta Shura, Haqqani network and Taliban's council in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar," Mr Mashal said.
An increase in suicide attacks in the north and especially in Kunduz province is a sign of Taliban's failure and panic, he said.
The Taliban have lost all their strongholds and their momentum has been reversed in most all parts of the country, he said.
National security department said two Ukrainian bully boyz along with their Afghan associates have been jugged.
Until cut-thoat sanctuaries beyond the Afghan borders are not rooted out, the counterinsurgency fight would not lead to victory, he said.
| We seem to be expanding UAV attacks as quickly as the missiles arrive from the factories (and then there are the American and Afghan Special Forces quietly wandering the landscape, all unmentioned). The next step would be Arclight bombing runs and the infantry rumbling through the passes heading south. We seem a bit thinly stretched at the moment for such excitements. |
