Afghan reality: India may talk to ISI, Taliban

[DaRk WaVe]

Emoji, your leadership(I mean PA) has no direct control over those regions. Those regions are ruled indirectly by depending on various factions. Also there is not much difference in the pastuns regardless of artificial boundaries like Durand. They are all one big community and live that way. Pashtuns, in general, have anti-PA feelings and anti-Pakjab feelings.

we are doing what we can to bring these areas into main stream, I have mentioned about the 'Political parties act to be extended to FATA', They are critical no doubt, But it is true about Afghan Pushtuns not Pakistani Pushtuns, so you need to differentiate here

& BTW i forgot to mention one more thing related to 'factions'

Militants taste their own medicine

By Said Nazir Afridi

BARA: At least 35 people, including a deputy chief of the banned Lashkar-e-Islam (LI), were killed and 85 others injured in an explosion caused by a suicide bomber in the remote Tirah Valley of Bara subdivision in Khyber Agency. There are, however, conflicting reports about the event itself.

According to one version quoting eyewitnesses and tribal sources, people of Orakzai and Khyber agencies had gathered at a ‘Hashish fair’ near a mosque when a suicide bomber struck at 12:05pm while embracing LI deputy chief Azam Khan Afridi as he got off a vehicle. Azam Afridi and his seven guards were among the 30 people killed on the spot while 90 others sustained injuries.

The injured were rushed to the district headquarters hospitals located far away in Kohat and Hangu. Five of the wounded persons died on way to the hospitals. Some of the injured identified as Shakeel, Paiyo Khan, Muhammad Saeed, Qutbuddin, Muhammad Ashraf, Agha Khan, Noor Badshah, Muhammad Arif and a 24-year-old young man whose identity could not be ascertained, were taken to the DHQ Hospital Kohat.

The sources said security forces stopped six other victims from being shifted to Peshawar through Jamrud tehsil at Lala checkpost and arrested 12 of their attendants. The forces allowed six attendants to go with the remaining victims to public hospitals in Peshawar in soldiers’ custody.

Officials, however, claimed that explosion was triggered by devices planted by unidentified militants near the mosque. The security forces had been carrying out operation to hunt down militants of the banned LI and Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in Khyber Agency for the last few months. It was the first big blow to the LI since the start of the ongoing military operation.

According to another version of events belying the earlier given official version, tribal sources said the LI deputy chiefwas having lunch with his guards at a roadside hotel in Dars Jumaat at around 11am when a young boy aged 14 or 15 years entered the hotel and blew himself up near the militant commander.

LI sources said six killed belonged to the Akakhel and five from Zakhakhel Afridi sub-tribes. Besides Azam Afridi, some of the other militants, who were killed, were identified as Misri Khan, Khalid, Salamat and Amanat Khan. Except two, the identity of the civilians killed in the attack could not be ascertained. The two who were identified hailed from Orakzai Agency and had come to the local market for shopping.

Sources said the LI headquarters was located in the same area and a makeshift market of hashish, opium and arms is arranged every Thursday and Friday in the local bazaar near the hotel where the suicide bombing took place.

They added that Azam Afridi hailing from Akakhel tribe along with other commanders from different tribes used to visit the market and attend the Shura meeting in its headquarters every Thursday and Friday.

Another source said a meeting of the LI Shura headed by Mangal Bagh was also held prior to the incident. However, some other sources said no such meeting was held on Thursday. So far no individual or organisation has claimed responsibility for the attack. However, LI sources believed that the Ansurul Islam (AI), a Tirah-based militant organisation in Bara Subdivision, was behind the attack as it was their only rival in the area.

About two months ago, a suicide bomber attacked the AI headquarters in Maidan area of Tirah Valley where more than seven people were killed and as many were injured. The AI had blamed the Mangal Bagh-led LI for the attack while the latter had denied its involvement in the bombing.

Talking to this scribe from Maidan in the Tirah Valley, AI spokesman Qari Minhaj said they were not involved in the suicide attack, adding that the bomber was prepared by the LI for attack on AI, but he blew himself up and killed his own handlers.

Some sources close to Azam Afridi said he had differences with some local TTP commanders like Adnan Afridi and Nazir Afridi operating in Orakzai Agency due to their activities in Bara Subdivision. These sources held the two TTP commanders responsible for the attack.

BARA TRADERS: Meanwhile, at the request of the Bara Traders Union, the political administration allowed the shopkeepers of Bara Bazaar to shift goods from their shops within three days as curfew had been imposed in the bazaar for last six months.

[Armand2REP]

how many security personnels ? Do you think it is going to matter significantly, It will only serve as extra targets for Taliban & you all know that Taliban are going to Label Indians Foreign & kill 'em

I don't understand how you think Pakistan is failing in expelling India, When article clearly says your regime wants to 'talk'
I hope you have got it

My regime? Dear, I am French. We have your Mr. 10% in our back pocket. India is sending more security forces to Afghanistan which is an embarassment to Pakistan who doesn't send any forces to protect their workers. Indian aid will go undetered. They provide far more to Afghanistan than Pakistan ever will.

 

[DaRk WaVe]

Last time when TTP went out for blood, which city suffered the most, Peshawar, with almost 98% Pushtun population, does in any way sais that PA & ISI are cause this Havoc in their city? you need to stop using this term of 'Pakjab', In recent capture of Bajur locals were pleased & peace is returning

sorry to say but it seems Indians are packing their bags at least temporarily, We are doing what we can to achieve peace so need to 'doubt' our commitment, Our Engineers got killed, Do you even know about it?

TTP went after shias. Most of the time innocent pastuns were a collateral damage and not the target. PA and its assets were the target. TTP went after PA because of PA's Ops against them. These Ops were a farce, even so, the TTP took it as betrayal by PA.


Were you offended by the word 'Pakjab'? It means Pakistani Punjabi(Pakjabi). BTW, are you a pakjabi?

In recent capture of Bajur locals were pleased & peace is returning
thanks

well, thats the official version....

 

[Vinod2070]

Who said we are packing our bags. That is too early to say.

There will be ups and downs in the game but India being there on your Western borders is just a reality you will have to deal with.

Overall I think it will be good for the ordinary Pakistanis if the wannabe Bonapartes are brought to their senses. You have had an overdose of them for decades and they have taken the country down in the dumps.

 

[johnee]

We are doing what we can to achieve peace so need to 'doubt' our commitment,

LOL!!! Peace for whom? Not for Afghans, not for (avg non-pakjabi)Pakistanis, not for americans(or their NATO friends), not for India(or other SAARC nations), then peace for whom? Peace and prosperity(drug biz) for PA(and thereby Pakjabis). How clever!!!clap

I am talking about the recent carnage unfold by Taliban on people of Peshawar
& Yes TTP went after Shia's does it in any way means Pushtuns will go Anti-Pak & Anti-PA?
if you are trying to say that 'collateral' damage caused this anti-PA sentiment, then same applies on Afghan taliban & ISAF, Afghan taliban has endless supply of recruits

TTP is almost annihilated, Don't know why you are all still considering it as a 'major factor'

Were you offended by the word 'Pakjab'? It means Pakistani Punjabi(Pakjabi). BTW, are you a pakjabi?

yes i was offended, Pakistan has FOUR provinces, so please don't exaggerate this Punjabi factor in Pakistani Politics & Army

BTW I AM PAKSITANI

well, thats the official version....

so what unofficial intelligence repo have you got your highness, can i see it?

[ajtr]

PLAN:
1. US increase troop presence and crushes bad Taliban. Otherwise it will lose and the malaise kicks in.(right now going on)
2.US manages Pakistan while doing this. Not at cost of any other nation.
3.The good Taliban get regularized into para-military scouts etc. Crucial to get them under a uniform and get rid of their tribal dress. The Afghan National Army still gets its share of Tajiks and Uzbegs and Hazaras as top layer to guarantee the ethnic rights.
4.The Ghilzais and Durranis have to make up and work out a compromise certified by the loya jirga to ensure Pashtun solidarity.
5.An all powers conference to declare Afghan neutrality is crucial to return Afghanistan to buffer status like in the 19th century. This is to neutralize any wet dreams of wannabe jihadis. Same time all the ethnic areas will have millat/autonomy status: Pashtuns, Tajiks and Hazaras and Uzbegs. The rights of sub-minorities in these areas are guaranteed by Afghan National Govt eg. Pashtuns in Tajik areas .

A G-8/OECD/INDIA and PRC economic program has to be worked out to stabilize the country. US will have the TSP economic stabilization program.

A strong advice is to seek Pashtun autonomy in Pakistan as a self determination right same as the Kurds in Iraq to satisfy the self determination rights. as this is related to the Afghan issue.

NWFP renaming

ISLAMABAD: In a major development, the PML-N and the ANP are inching towards an agreement to rename the NWFP as “Pukhtoonkhwa-Abaseen” and a final decision would be announced in this regard soon.

According to sources in both the parties, the ANP had already showed flexibility on its demand of renaming the NWFP as Pukhtoonkhwa and even agreed on the names of ‘Afghania’ or ‘Pukhtoonistan’ but the PML-N was demanding the affix of “Abaseen’ or “Khyber with Pukhtoonkhwa to satisfy the people of Dera Ismail Khan and Hazara belt, where Saraiki or Hindko dominates, respectively.

Sources said the PML-N agreed on the proposed name of “Pukhtoonkhwa-Abaseen’ and it is expected that a formal announcement would be made soon before the finalisation of the recommendations for the constitutional amendments by the Parliamentary Committee on Constitutional Reforms.

The sources said President Asif Ali Zardari, who returned to Islamabad on Saturday after two weeks, will now focus on the proposed constitutional amendments so that these might be finalised before his presidential address to a joint sitting of both the houses of parliament.

According to the sources, the government intends to summon a joint sitting of both the houses of parliament by March 17, hoping that the Parliamentary Committee on Constitutional Reforms would complete its task by mid March.

The sources said if the draft of the 18th Constitutional Amendment that would be scripted on the recommendations of the committee got delayed, the government would present the reports of the Public Accounts Committee for a debate in the National Assembly.

Meanwhile, the sources said the nationalist parties held an informal meeting at the Parliament House to evolve a joint stance on the provincial autonomy during the meeting of the Parliamentary Committee on Constitutional Reforms on March 9 (Tuesday) that would deliberate on provincial autonomy.

The sources said the nationalist parties adopted a tough stance on the issue of provincial autonomy and warned if this issue was not settled, no nationalist from Balochistan would come into parliament.

“We will boycott parliament if the issue of provincial autonomy was not settled,” nationalists from Balochistan said in the committee proceedings.

Earlier, the PML-N claimed that a consensus was evolved on the thorny issue of the NWFP renaming, whereas the Awami National Party (ANP) expressed its ignorance regarding an agreement in this connection.

PML-N Senior Vice-President Saranjam Zamindar, who hails from the NWFP and was part of the recent PML-N-ANP deliberations on the issue, when contacted by phone, said the two parties had agreed on giving a consensus nomenclature to the province.

“We have reached a conclusion on the subject and the controversy has been closed once and for all,” he contended. However, he declined to disclose what exactly was the proposed name, as the Parliamentary Committee on Constitutional Reforms (PCCR) entered a crucial phase, as it would come up with a constitutional amendment package soon.

He dispelled the impression that the two parties had failed to evolve a consensus and that their parleys were deadlocked, possibly leading to standoff in parliament, when the package would be presented for approval. Besides the PML-N, the PML-Q was also averse to changing the NWFPís name.

Answering a question, Saranjam said a meeting was on the cards between his party Quaid Nawaz Sharif and ANP President Asfandyar Wali on their return. Coincidentally, both are out of Pakistan these days.

“There is no problem in the PML-N Quaid having a meeting with Asfandyar Wali, which is due next week. Nawaz Sharif is expected to be back within 2-3 days from England,” he maintained.

Talking to The News here, ANP Central Information Secretary Senator Zahid Khan, on the other hand, said neither he was aware of a fixed date regarding Nawaz-Asfandyar meeting nor was in the knowledge of a consensus reached on this issue.

Though he was optimistic about an agreement between the two sides on the matter, Zahid said he had no information of a consensus evolved between the two sides. However, he made it clear that the proposed constitutional package would be meaningless in case it did not envisage the long-standing demand of provincial autonomy or a new name for his province.

Zahid, replying to another query, said they would consider backing the proposed package only after carefully studying it. It is learnt that the ANP would not support it in parliament if the NWFP was not renamed and provincial autonomy was not granted in real terms.

He pointed out that everything could possibly be very clear next week, when the PCCR would be totally focusing on the quantum of provincial autonomy, the NWFP renaming being an integral part of it.

if you are trying to say that 'collateral' damage caused this anti-PA sentiment, then same applies on Afghan taliban & ISAF, Afghan taliban have endless supply or recruits

I think you are confusing two different issues:

a)TTP targetted PA and shias.
b)Pashtuns, in general, are discontent with PA and Pakjabi elite(who practically run the Pakistan).

TTP is almost annihilated, Don't know why you are all still considering it as a 'major factor'

TTP is not attacking PA because PA is not going after them. Just because TTP is not in action does not mean it has been 'annihilated'. PA is now going after some elements of shura(I suspect some trade off between Shura and PA).

yes i was offended, Pakistan has FOUR provinces, so please don't exaggerate this Punjabi factor in Pakistani Politics & Army

Yep, Pakistan has four provinces. These four provinces are broadly occupied by four ethinic groups, namely: Pakjab, Sindh, Baloch, Pashtun.

But(and this is important), the power has been grabbed by Pakjabis through PA. PA is predominantly an organisation that is in control of Pakjabis. Most officers, Brigs, Generals are Pakjabis. Through this organisation Pakjabis have grabbed power which gives them a greater share in all resources. Pakjabi is alloted a greater percentage of resources and funds. Even indus water is used mostly by Pakjabis leaving the Sindhis parched.

BTW I AM PAKSITANI

Sure, but there are other identities one carries. I assume you are also a muslim. Similarly, I asked you whether you are a pakjabi. But you avoided the answer, so I presume you are a pakjabi.

so what unofficial intelligence repo have you got your highness, can i see it?

Well, there are lot of reporters on ground who are providing the other version(like Farhat Taj for eg.). You must read them too and make up your mind.

Pak to construct Rs 1.2b hospital in Afghanistan


ISLAMABAD (APP) - The Government of Pakistan will construct Jinnah Hospital in Kabul at an estimated cost of Rs 1200 million, which would have all the modern health facilities.

A contract signing ceremony was held here Tuesday between the Governments of Pakistan and Afghanistan. Commander National Logistic Cell, Brigadier Nisar Ahmed Mir and Brigadier (Retd) Anjum Saeed on the part of Planning and Development Division signed the agreement.

First Secretary Embassy of Afghanistan, Syed Maluk Fakhar was also present on the occasion. Senior Joint Secretary Planning and Development Division Raja Atta Mohammad on this occasion gave details of the project.

He said Pakistan has already committed an amount of US $300 million for the reconstruction and rehabilitation of Afghanistan.

He told that the planned three-storey hospital would have a capacity of 200 beds with further space available for its expansion to 400 beds.

For this purpose, 25 acres of land has been made available by the Government of Afghanistan, he added.

He said it would comprise 50-bed Thalassemia centre, dialysis centre,surgical wards, besides others facilities.

He said the design of the hospital has been prepared by M/S NESPAK in consultation with Ministry of Health, Afghanistan.

Contract for construction has been awarded to National Logistic Cell, which is also constructing Allama Iqbal Faculty Block at Kabul University, Sir Syed Post Graduate Science Faculty Block in Nangarhar University, Jalalabad, Liaquat Ali Khan Engineering Faculty Block in Bulkh University, Mazar-e-Sharif and Nishtar Kidney Centre, Jalalabad, he added.

[Iamanidiot]

Me thinks there is a plan India wants pakistan to simmer in its own juices.If the US stays its fine.They will fight for us.If not its simply not a India vs Pakistan slugfest in Afghanistan.IT will be a slugfest where Iran,Tajiks,Uzbeks,Russia and maybe China will be on our side.The Northern alliance will be highly strengthened and the Taliban will simply not be able to march into Kabul like before .Also we can also deliver goodies to Pakistan when ever their is a terrorist attack without US interference

 

[DaRk WaVe]

I think you are confusing two different issues:

a)TTP targetted PA and shias.
b)Pashtuns, in general, are discontent with PA and Pakjabi elite(who practically run the Pakistan).

a) I never denied it
b)whats makes you think that, in swat initially people wanted peace under Taliban but once they tasted it & saw expansionist mind set of TTP, they turned against them Operation took place & now they are happy, peace is returning
I am not going to say that things you said are practically non existent but this does not means that all Pushtuns will go Anti-Pak & fight a 'War of Liberation'

TTP is not attacking PA because PA is not going after them. Just because TTP is not in action does not mean it has been 'annihilated'. PA is now going after some elements of shura(I suspect some trade off between Shura and PA).

Flawed, TTP's back is broken, Don't forget that they tried to gain upper hand by unleashing carnage before initiation of Operation Rah-i-Nijat

you can suspect that this trade but unfortunately the facts are speaking differently, Questta Shura has been effectively liquidated with help of Pakistan, I repeat

Shura and committee members killed or captured:

• Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar directed the Quetta Shura. Baradar was the Afghan Taliban's second in command and the group's operational commander, and was detained in Karachi sometime in January or February 2010.
• Maulvi Abdul Kabir led the Peshawar Regional Military Council before he was captured by Pakistani intelligence in February 2010. He served as the Taliban's former shadow governor of the eastern Afghan province of Nangarhar, as well as the governor of Nangarhar during the Taliban’s reign.
• Mullah Mir Mohammed served as the shadow governor in the northern province of Baghlan. He was detained in February 2010.
• Mullah Abdul Salam served as the shadow governor in the northern province of Kunduz. He was detained in February 2010.
• Mullah Dadullah Akhund was the Taliban’s top military commander in the South. He was killed in May 2007 by British special forces in Helmand province.
• Akhtar Mohammad Osmani was a member of the Quetta Shura and was the Taliban's chief of military operations in the provinces of Uruzgan, Nimroz, Kandahar, Farah, Herat, and Helmand, as well as a top aide to Mullah Omar. He also personally vouched for the safety of Osama bin Laden and Mullah Omar. He was killed by Coalition forces while traveling near the Pakistani border in December 2006.
• Mullah Obaidullah Akhund was the Taliban Defense Minister during the reign of the Taliban from 1996 until the US toppled the government in the fall of 2001. He was close to Mullah Omar. His status is uncertain; he has been reported to have been arrested and released several times by Pakistani security forces. He was last reported in Pakistani custody in February 2008.
• Mullah Mansur Dadullah Akhund, who is also known as Mullah Bakht Mohammed, replaced his brother Mullah Dadullah Akhund as the top commander in the South during the summer of 2007. His status is uncertain; he was last reported to have been arrested by Pakistani security forces in January 2008 but is thought to have been exchanged as part of a hostage deal.
• Anwarul Haq Mujahid was a member of the Peshawar Regional Military Shura and the commander of the Tora Bora Military Front, which is based in Nangarhar province. He was detained in Peshawar in June 2009. Mujahid is the son of Maulvi Mohammed Yunis Khalis, a senior mujahedeen leader who was instrumental in welcoming Osama bin Laden into Afghanistan after he was ejected from the Sudan in 1996.
• Mullah Ustad Mohammed Yasir was the chief of the Recruitment Committee and a Taliban spokesman before he was arrested in Peshawar in January 2009.

hahahhha man fuuny, I like that
Indus water problem is our own, Don't know why is so much interested in it, When India itself is literally stealing water form every neighbor, you dream of creating this rift by using this Pakjab term & all that ethnic stuff will remain a wet dream
Punjab is a bigger province & it will have natural dominance, Don't know why Indians are having wet dreams after seeing this 'made up' rift between different ethic groups, I hope there were more Pakistanis here

Sure, but there are other identities one carries. I assume you are also a muslim. Similarly, I asked you whether you are a pakjabi. But you avoided the answer, so I presume you are a pakjabi.

Idenitiy that matters to me is Pakistani & moreover you can 'assume' things about me, I cannot stop you
