Maybe I'll join the Taliban
Karzai... A former Baltimore restaurateur, now 12th and current President of Afghanistan, displacing the legitimate president Rabbani in December 2004. He was installed as the dominant political figure after the removal of the Taliban regime in late 2001 in a vain attempt to put a
Pashtunface on the successor state to the Taliban. After the 2004 presidential election, he was declared president regardless of what the actual vote count was. He won a second, even more dubious, five-year-term after the 2009 presidential election. His grip on reality has been slipping steadily since around 2007, probably from heavy drug use...
on Wednesday said foreign troops haven't been able to properly safeguard Kandahar Central detention facility.
Mr Siamak Herawi, Deputy Spokesperson to President Karzai, emphasised that plotters of the jailbreak will be introduced in a couple of weeks.
"Primary findings indicate that there has been cooperation from inside and outside the jail," Mr Herawi said.
But Dr Abdullah Abdullah,
... the former foreign minister of the Northern Alliance government, advisor to Masood, and candidate for president against Karzai. Dr. Abdullah was born in Kabul and is half Tadjik and half Pashtun...
Leader of the Change and Hope Coalition, said we should not put the blame on foreigners for all incidents.
Dr Abdullah described the jailbreak as embarrassing to the Afghan government.
"There is nothing left to be called a system or a government," Dr Abdullah said.
Chief of jails in Afghanistan Gen. Amir Mohammad Jamshid accused some of the Kandahar jail officials and as well as Pak links of plotting the jailbreak.
More than 20 Kandahar jail officials have been incarcerated in connection with the incident, Gen. Jamshid said.
A joint commission consisted of officials from interior and justice ministries, Attorney General's Office and national directorate of security has been set up to investigate the incident.
"Our security and intelligence organisations should have controlled it," Gen. Jamshid told TOLOnews.
The Taliban have called the jailbreak a big achievement and a big blow to US war efforts in Afghanistan.
