US is Thinking — UK is Promising — Germany is Sending — Big-Crook-Election-Thief is Driving — Commander Needs More Troops — Envoy says ''NO'' — Taliban is Thriving
That's about sums up the situation today in Afghanistan.
There's an unseen, well hidden fact.
The answer to the sensible question: ''Why is it taking so much time for Pakistan Army to tackle Taliban ?''
Answer: ''ISI [Inter Services Intelligence] of Pakistan organized and trained Taliban using money given by US to Pakistan government to fight terrorists.
The Islamic religious attachment between ISI of Pakistan and Taliban does not permit the Army to annihilaate Taliban.
There was no Taliban until the Afghanistan’s civil war.
The Taliban—from the Arabic word for student, “taleb”—are fundamentalist Sunni Muslims. The Taliban dominates large areas of Afghanistan and a large part of Pakistan’s Federally Administered Tribal Areas.
Soviet troops went home in February 1989, after 10 years of occupation. But by that time the nation was in socil and economic chaos.
1.5 million dead, millions of refugees and orphans in Iran and Pakistan.
Political vacuum. The warlords tried to fill. Afghan mujahideen warlords began a civil war.
Thousands of Afghan orphans grew up never knowing Afghanistan or their parents, especially their mothers. They were schooled in Pakistan’s madrassas [religious schools].
They were financed by Pakistan and Saudi authorities to develop militant Islamists.
Pakistan got vast sums of money from US is a well known fact. Pakistan nurtured that corps of militants as proxy fighters in Kashmir.
But Pakistan intended to use the madrassas’ militants to control Afghanistan as well.
Pakistan is the trouble maker of the region. And as usual, US backs the wrong horse, time and time again.
That's the musical chair Pakistan is playing and Americans are paying.
