Aya hai hai hai -- our conjoined twins seem to be a bit allergic to something -- lol
Article here, excerpts below:
An unprecedented intelligence deal with neighboring Pakistan has sparked a furor in Afghanistan, where lawmakers and media commentators are accusing the government of selling out to the country's nemesis.
Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and Afghanistan's National Directorate of Security (NDS) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on May 18 to share intelligence and bolster cooperation in their fight against militancy.
Some current and former Afghan officials, as well as ordinary Afghans, are angry at the overture -- a potentially groundbreaking attempt to improve ties with Islamabad -- toward a country many accuse of supporting the Taliban.
"Pakistan is an enemy to Afghanistan and will never develop friendship with us," Fazilhadi Muslimyar, the chairman of the upper house of parliament, said on May 19. "Pakistan has always plotted to destroy Afghanistan and will continue to do so; therefore, how can we afford to send our security forces for training in that country?"
A former head of the NDS, Assadullah Khalid, called the deal dangerous and pointless.
"No Afghan can think that ISI supports us in combating terrorism," Khalid told Afghanistan's TOLOnews on May 18. "ISI will strive to subvert the achievements we have made in the intelligence sector and will destroy them, so I consider this agreement a shameful and unforgivable act."
Another ex-spy chief, Amrullah Saleh, expressed similar alarm via Twitter, warning that Pakistan risked "falling in the trap of deception".
---> oh main sadqay jawan -- lol
...
Unconfirmed reports in the Afghan media suggest that NDS Chief Rahmatullah Nabil, a vocal critic of the ISI, has resigned over the agreement.
