Pakistan’s ISI Trained Al-Qaida: Imran Khan | ||||||
2019-09-25 | ||||||
24 September [ToloNews] Prime Minister Khan has spoken to Trump, Khalilzad about Afghan grinding of the peace processor. Pakistain’s Prime Minister Imran Khan ...aka The Great Khan, who isn't your heaviest-duty thinker, maybe not even among the top five... in an interview at the Council on Foreign Relations In New York on Monday admitted that Pakistain’s Inter-Services Intelligence ...the Pak military intelligenceagency that controls the military -- heads of ISI typically get promoted into the Chief of Army Staff position. It serves as a general command center for favored turban groups such as Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammad, tries to influence the politix of neighboring countries, and carries out a (usually) low-level war against India in Kashmir... (ISI) trained al-Qaeda and other terrorist groups to fight in Afghanistan.
"The Pak Army, ISI, trained al-Qaeda and all these groups to fight in Afghanistan. There were always links--there had to be links, because they trained them," said the prime minister in a candid conversation in which he offered a historical context for the regional culture, and conflict. "The resistance was organized by Pak ISI training these krazed killers, who were invited from all over the Moslem world to do jihad against the Soviet Union. And so we created these krazed killer groups to fight the Soviets," Khan said, continuing: "They were indoctrinated that fighting foreign occupation is jihad. But now, when the US arrived in Afghanistan, it was supposed to be terrorism. So Pakistain took a real battering in this."
...Arabic for students... talks broke down in early September.
...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... , and wished Pakistain had been consulted; however, the Trump Administration has been responsive to Khan’s recent overtures. The US’s special envoy to Afghanistan, Zalmay Khalilzad, met with Khan Sunday to brief him on the details of the nine rounds of US-Taliban peace talks in Doha, and the US White House reported that President Donald Trump also had a meeting with Khan on Monday to discuss Afghanistan.
