So who are they? He didn't say the Government of Afghanistan. I know that there was an entity known as the northern alliance or the United Islamic Front but I can find no political party in Afghanistan that calls itself that now.
Probably referring to the Panjsheris and Uzbek warlords that are/have been part of the Karzai government.
What's equally fascinating is how all those other TTP militants like Baitullah Mehsud, Sufi Mohammad, Faizullah Mohammad, and Nek Mohammad-all with a loooong history of fighting with the afghan taliban against the N.A. back in the day suddenly supposedly changed their spots to accept such "aid" from the N.A.'s past supporters, India.
They accepted aid from the 'infidel' US, why not India? They are a pragmatic lot - 'the enemy of my enemy ...' exactly.
Your own defense minister destroyed the quetta shura.
Abdul Ghani Baradar is captured all the way down in Karachi.
The defense ministers complete comments have been posted, and they are a jumbled mess, in which right after he allegedly confirms the Quetta Shura he then denies that the American allegations about the Quetta Shura are correct. You want to hang your hat on that nonsense, that is your prerogative, but again indicates the depths to which you have sunk, clutching at straws.
As for the arrest of Baradar - yours is a nonsensical argument that implies that no nation should ever arrest a wanted individual from another nation lest the arresting nation be accused of 'harboring criminals'. Poppycock. The arrest of Baradar comes about in significantly changed dynamics - operations in Swat, SW, Bajaur, Mohmand, Khyber, Orakzai .. and a resulting 'squeeze' on the Taliban, both in Pakistan and in Afghanistan.
We kill a Haqqani outside Miram Shah four days ago.
Perhaps you should try to kill a Qari Ziaur Rehman operating out of territory under ISAF control, or is your lack of action against those Taliban indicative of 'willful deceit and duplicity', since that is your conclusion about Pakistan based on the fact that certain Taliban groups operate out of Pakistani territory where the GoP has not yet completely established its writ.
You wouldn't know proof if it hit you over the head. Even your own words typed only moments ago-
It's more like you can't see the hypocrisy of your position, despite the fact that I have hit your over the head with it several times. ISAF clearly does not dedicate the resources necessary for neutralizing Taliban militants attacking Pakistani forces and civilians out of Afghan territory, yet a similar position taken by Pakistan sees Westerners ranting about 'duplicity and deceit'.
As for proof, when you can actually find some to hit me over the head with, let me know.
Just more dissembling BS.
Why not use such language to describe these murderers unless you're offended by those who'd denigrate your minions? Looks like one more bit of proof AND an admission... as though any was needed from you for either.
So terribly tiresome...
I have no qualms with using particular language to describe Pakistani 'minions' so long as similar language is also used to describe the US and its 'minions', past and present.
Consistency is what I am looking for, hypocrisy and double standards galore is what I see.
