North-west Pakistan in grip of deadly Taliban resurgence​

Misguided government efforts to rehabilitate militants have helped fuel recent terrorist activity

The seemingly uncontrollable resurgence of the TTP in Pakistan had been forewarned by many observers since the return of the Taliban to power in Afghanistan in August 2020, after they seized control from the US-backed government and imposed brutal Islamic rule on the country. The triumph of the Taliban in Afghanistan was celebrated in Islamabad including by the then prime minister, Imran Khan, who said the country had broken from “the shackles of slavery”.

“Pakistan’s mistake was to think that the Taliban would be willing to help it curb TTP,” said Kugelman. “The Taliban’s track record has been consistent: the group doesn’t turn on its militant allies. It didn’t turn on al-Qaida, so why would it turn on TTP, with which the Taliban have been aligned ideologically for years?”

Meanwhile, misguided efforts by Khan’s government included 5,000 TTP fighters being brought back to Pakistan from Afghanistan to be rehabilitated and resettled in the tribal area of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.The programme failed after ceasefire negotiations broke down and funding could not be found to resettle the fighters, leaving Pakistan with more TTP fighters freely roaming on home soil.

The defence minister, Khawaja Asif, who serves under the new government of Shehbaz Sharif, confirmed that the hundreds of TTP fighters had been brought over under the previous Khan government. Asif was critical of the failed rehabilitation plan, accepting that it had instead helped fuel recent terrorist activity in the country.

He said the TTP fighters “did not settle down like normal citizens. Instead they are going back to their old activities, creating an atmosphere of fear in these areas.”

Asif described the situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as “bad without a doubt”. “They know it, we know it, everyone knows that Pakistani Taliban are using Afghan soil for terrorism in Pakistan,” he said. “We would like to avoid a military operation but if we are compelled to use force then we will have to.”

In Waziristan, a heavily militarised mountainous region bordering Afghanistan, which historically has been at the centre of Taliban attacks and brutal security operations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, locals described how the Taliban presence could be felt heavily once again. They said an influx of TTP fighters had come from Afghanistan and the Taliban were now controlling the many security checkpoints at night.

For over a year we have seen TTP militants crossing into Pakistan,” said Anwar Khpalwak, from the local organisation The Voice of People. Locals described how Pakistan Taliban militants now roamed freely around the area, including in the bazaar, and said they had been involved in ransom, kidnapping and extortion of local businesses.

Local anger at the government and military was potent. Most had lost relatives to years of terrorist attacks and retaliatory military operations, and the return of the TTP meant only more violence and bloodshed. “We have lost most men and our widowed women would guard the house at night. We had peace for a very short period, and it seems the terrorists are back. We are tired of war,” said Malik Ala Noor Khan, 40, who lost 14 family members and joined a recent march calling for peace.

Many believed the TTP had only used the ceasefire with the government to regroup and reorganise so they could come back stronger. Manzoor Pashteen, the founder of the Pashtun Tahafuz movement (PTM) that works for peace in the violence-stricken tribal areas, said all the government’s negotiations with the Pakistan Taliban had “never yielded us peace”.

“These negotiations were only to give each other space for a few months,” he said. “In a way, these negotiations were a justification, a gateway to allow militant organisation in tribal areas.”

As hundreds of locals gathered recently in Wana, a town in Waziristan, they waved white flags of peace to protest against the violence that had once again imposed itself on their lives. “Through peaceful protests of the people, we will continue to challenge this war being fought on our soil,” said Pashteen. “This is not our war

But blaming Imran Khan and his policies, stupid as they were, alone is unfair. Pakistan has supported Taliban in Afghanistan for over 30 years.

It's not the Taliban

It's is the afghans/pashtuns

They have been at this for decades and dare I say it centuries



They are little more then animals and no one has taught them that bombing Mosques or schools is wrong


You can't change pashtun society

 

[Kuru]

May they RIP.

Avenged how?

Do they want cross-border strikes? Military operation?

Well this should be a sentiment carried by everyone. Everyone should want revenge. It's about gheirat and honour now.

There has been a meeting between military officials

 

[Menace2Society]

Let me guess, kill a couple of TTP fighters on a hill in Fata and call it a day. The objective needs to be a surrender of TTP by any means necessary.

Cut down all relations with Afghanistan. Shut all border crossings. Kick out Afghan refugees. Ask Afghan taliban to hand over Mukarram Khurasani or else no relations with that filthy country

But I doubt that would happen. At most condemnations and might be some airstrikes here and there

This would be the ideal solution but won't happen due to various reasons

Pti clowns continuing with their buffoonery

I am pretty sure Imran Khan would still say talks and dialogue are only solution to TTP problem

 

[Enigma SIG]

Heard of PAF strikes in Afghanistan in retaliation. Got any thing on that?

Hell will freeze over before that happens.

Look you imbecile,
Most of suicide bombers come from afghanistan.
Tell me who is manning the borders?
Whos job is it to provide protection?
Whos job is it to Stop threats from entering pakistan?
Whos job is it to take care of internal threats?
whos job is to counter foreign threats?

what you need to change is the f’ing establishment (army/isi) and ask questions there why are they failing to protect the civilians on Pakistan?
Not going on a ethnic rampage blaming pashtuns!
I doesn’t matter who does these barbaric acts the question is why cant the responsible authorities stop it.

This the last time I am engaging you. bye
