| [DAWN] Afghanistan's intelligence agency claims Pakistain was involved in last week's attacks on Kabul ...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the Worldand didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either.... that killed more than 50 people and maimed hundreds. Hassib Sediqi, the front man for the National Directorate of Security ...the Afghan national intel agency... , said Wednesday that Afghan authorities have confirmed "Pak military interference" in the attacks last Friday. Sediqi says "special circles of the Pak military were behind all those attacks." He claims the Paks were working through the Haqqani network, one of the most brutal Lion of Islam groups in Afghanistan. There was no immediate reaction from Islamabad, which has in the past denied such accusations from Afghanistan. Islamabad wields considerable influence over the Taliban, which have waged a 14-year war against Kabul. The development comes soon after Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani ...former chancellor of Kabul University, now president of Afghanistan. Before returning to Afghanistan in 2002 he was a scholar of political science and anthropology. He worked at the World Bank working on international development assistance. As Finance Minister of Afghanistan between July 2002 and December 2004, he led Afghanistan's attempted economic recovery until the Karzais stole all the money. .. and Chief Executive 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... in statements a day apart accused Pakistain of implicit support to Taliban, who have recently been engaged in brutal offensives in Afghanistan, which has been struggling to combat terrorism ever since the withdrawal of NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A collection of multinational and multilingual and multicultural armed forces, all of differing capabilities, working toward a common goal by pulling in different directions... forces. Pakistain recently brokered a first round of peace talks between the Aghan government and the myrmidon group, which took place in Murree. But negotiations fell into jeopardy after the announced death of Taliban chief Mullah Omar ... a minor Pashtun commander in the war against the Soviets who made good as leader of the Taliban. As ruler of Afghanistan, he took the title Leader of the Faithful. The imposition of Pashtunkhwa on the nation institutionalized ignorance and brutality in a country already notable for its own fair share of ignorance and brutality... According to Islamabad, a second round of peace talks has been postponed on the Taliban's insistence after confirmation of Mullah Omar's death sent the Lion of Islam group into a leadership crisis, with reports of internal conflicts on the issue of Omar's successor. |
