I think you missed the important point. The fact that he has to address TTP as a separate group, and not as the same group he leads (Afghan Taliban) makes it bloody obvious that he does not lead or direct TTP. How about this as well:
Mullah Omar tells TTP to stop attacking Pak army - Indian Express
He is again addressing TTP separately. He is not addressing them as some part of an umbrella group with Afghan Taliban.
CNN is among the biggest WoT propaganda mouth pieces, I don't trust these rat bastards. I searched your article online, and they're all being linked back to the original CNN article. There is no alliance between Hakimullah and Haqqanis. Another FYI though - and you probably have absolutely no idea about this, just like your friend Mercenary or most other bharatis, but Haqqanis and Afghan Taliban are two separate groups.
You have found only a sporadic bunch of instances and are using them to establish a trend.
TTP are NOT being given a shelter by Afghan Taliban btw.
Here's the thing though - don't you bharatis AND Americans continuously say that Haqqanis are under the control of ISI and are supported by ISI? So are you taking that statement back, and now saying that ISI has nothing to do with Haqqanis?
You also say that ISI supports Afghan Taliban. But in this thread (and in general), you say that TTP and Afghan Taliban are one and the same, but you also say that ISI supports Afghan Taliban. So when you say ISI supports Afghan Taliban, you yourself are differentiating TTP from Afghan Taliban, thus making an obvious
contradiction.
If you haven't gathered the contradiction, let me break it down for you:
a) You say that the Afghan Taliban TTP are the same group
b) You then say that ISI supports Afghan Taliban
c) When you say ISI supports ONLY Afghan Taliban, you implicitly say that Afghan Taliban are not the same *** TTP
Get it?
Sporadic instances of collaboration do not establish any active collaboration trend between TTP and Afghan Taliban. For all we know, it's a rogue Afghan Taliban faction working with TTP.
Kiddo, before you call me a conspiracy theorist, look at what you yourself had to say in the past. You're as much a conspiracy theorist as anyone on this forum. So get off your high horse.
I don't care what US says publicly.
And how does that show that they're not supporting TTP? Do you keep forgetting they have safe havens in Afghanistan?
Again because ISI lied to them about whom they were killing.
Then why is US doing nothing to remove TTP from that region?
US is NOT paying us to fight TTP. And what about the TTP in Afghanistan? Most TTP are in Afghanistan these days anyway.
