Afghanistan rejects its soil was used to attack Bacha Khan University

Yeah, a little hard to argue that when the NDS was caught red-handed engaging with the TTP second in command by the US:

The capture of Latif Mehsud proved to be an embarrassment for the Afghans, and a vindication for Pakistan, which has long complained that the Pakistani Taliban – called the Tehrik -e-Taliban (TTP) – receives support from Karzai’s government. Afghanistan and the United States, for their part, have laid the blame for a 12-year insurgency at Pakistan’s feet, saying its intelligence agencies support the most effective insurgency group, led by Jalaluddin Haqqani.

Latif Mehsud was a close confidant of Qari Hussain, who was one of the candidates to take over the TTP after the killing of its leader, Baitullah Mehsud, by an American drone strike in 2009. When Hussain was similarly eliminated in October 2010, Latif took over as the TTP’s second in command, operating under its leader, Hakimullah Mehsud. (The two Mehsuds are from the same tribe, but not closely related.) Latif’s capture provided the intelligence the U.S. needed to kill Hakimullah, in a drone strike just a few weeks later.

Latif spent much of his time since 2010 between Afghanistan and Pakistan, and it is believed he was a conduit for funding to the TTP. It now appears some of that funding might have come from Afghanistan’s intelligence agency, the National Directorate of Security (NDS).

On October 5, Latif was being taken by Afghan officials to a meeting with agents from the NDS when American special forces stopped his convoy, taking Latif to Bagram, where the U.S. runs a prison of its own.

Afghan journalists in the border provinces say Pakistani militants have been given free reign.

“Afghan intelligence and other security officials do not touch Pakistani militants even if they pass security check posts,” an Afghan journalist told The Express Tribune by phone on the condition of anonymity.

The role of Afghanistan’s intelligence agency has been called into question with the National Directorate of Security (NDS) recently confirming that it was a US drone strike that killed several Pakistani militants affiliated with Da’esh in Nangarhar. And on Friday, a former NDS chief Asadullah Khalid tweeted a link to Mansoor’s video on the Badhaber attack, describing the slain attackers as ‘martyrs’. Interestingly, he later disowned and deleted the tweet from his handle saying his account had been hacked.

The link between the TTP and NDS is not new, with the relationship being exposed when spokesperson for former Afghan president Hamid Karzai described senior TTP leader Latif Mehsud as a ‘major asset’ of the Afghan government. The statement had been issued after American forces in October 2013 recovered Mehsud from a car full of Afghan intelligence agents. An angry Karzai had condemned the arrest as “a challenge to Afghan sovereignty”.

I am sure India spent quite good money to make sure RAW's name is not mentioned anywhere in this Diplomat article but we all know NDS and RAW are operating as one unit against Pakistan via Afghanistan.

And why do you expect them to not have any links with TTP when you have been supporting Afghan Taliban for decades?
 
.
Yes they are learning from you.

we didn't refuse India we arrested Azhar and asked India to give us evidence and allow our investigators to interrogate the concerned people something they didn't agree as it was a false flag otherwise why wouldn't they cooperate with us.
 
.
What farce ? Did Pakistan backed away from sharing proof with UNO ? Isnt India hosting Baloch terrorists on Indian soil ?

Now who is daft here. How going to international forums will help us?

No India is not hosting any terrorist on Indian soil.

And your whole drama about sharing proof about India was a farce from the beginning to end. What came out of it anyway? Did anyone buy your so called proof?

Of course the Indians are working through the NDS - that's their plausible deniability.

The thing is that there are multiple Western and Pakistani sources that have directly interviewed Afghan government, police, military and intelligence officials who are openly talking about, and defending, Afghan policy to support TTP terrorists. All the Afghans have against Pakistan is circumstantial evidence, and now even the safe havens in North Waziristan don't exist, so what's the Afghan excuse now?

Talk about being daft that India is not hosting any balochi terrorist on its soil

Earlier you were asking for proof when that's given you are changing your statements have some integrity mate.

Not changing statement. I am not asking for proof, Afghans are.

Afghan taliban is being supported by America, Qatar,China, Iran as well Because AT has met them all and have a presence in qatar as well.

So How many countries are talking with TTP ?

Do you know the meaning of the word "support"?

I would expect the Afghan's to have at least some level of limited common sense to realize that if, as alleged, a country with the military and intelligence capabilities of Pakistan (and many times more material resources than Afghanistan) could not control the Afghan Taliban, then what hope do the Afghan's have of controlling an even more virulent and depraved group like the TTP?

Essentially the Indians are blinding leading the Afghans to their own destruction (or miring them further in a morass) by encouraging their collaboration with TTP, Al Qaeda and Baloch terrorist groups, just so India can continue perpetrating terrorism in Pakistan.

Well where are Indian proofs to support her allegations against Pakistan regarding terrorism in their country.

Why they have not shared it with any one in the world despite decades of Propaganda??
 
.

Do you understand that Afghan taliban/Haqqani Group was moving freely b/w Afghanistan and Bahrain and Saudia arabia as early as 2014/2015 collecting funds and creating links for their group ?

Americans are now tolerating AT, as they have no other option left..they wanna leave and they don't want chaos afterwards. But have you forgotten years and years of "Do more against the Afghan Taliban" from the Americans ?

Where as Afghans are not Americans, they know they have to live in this region, even after Americans are gone..and they don't want Taliban back in power...they are bearing the brunt of Pakistan's policies of sheltering AT. Terrorist attacks in their country every other day.

So come to think of it..a little pay back is in order.

Offcourse they will not directly support TTP, but neither will they act against them..just like how, Pakistan never acted against AT.

How come Pakistan i shseltering Afghan taliban when they are openly residing in qatar and was moving freely b/w Bahrain and saudia arabia as early as 2014.

And Did recent Afgan taliban infighting erupted in Pakistan or in Afghanistan Zabul province ?
 
.
Pakistan should stop blaming its neighbors without any proof and clean up its own mess. These acts of terrorism are most likely done by Pakistani "non state actors" anyway.
You deserve a good spanking :angry:.
When India gets attacked, its perfectly fine to blame Pakistan. When Afghanistan gets attacked then its perfectly fine to blame Pakistan but when Pakistan is attacked its not fair to blame Afghanistan with which we have open border
I understand your love for Afghanistan but history tells us that Same country was Invaded by 31 Countries for same attitude of denial about 9/11 attacks and protection of Osama. You can make out with Afghanistan as much you want but you can't denie that Afghanistan is an active zone of terrorism and country which has limited Government writ is and it is confined to Kabul.
