Let m...Mr. Rubin, has been correct in his comments. Let me tell a fact to a comment in this page which says Hezb was established by ISI and Hamid Gul. This person should go back and review Hezb history. Hezb was established 40 years ago in Kabul University with 3 teachers and 9 young students. At that time, the late king Zaher Shah was ruling Afghanistan. So this should clear one thing to you. <BR/>Secondly, the assistance which Hezb received during the Jihad against the Russians, was something that the whole world knew that without Hezb other socalled Mujahideen leaders will not have a chance of winning the war. It was and it is Hezb that calls the shots in Afghanistan. As you can see, all those other leaders of the Mujahideen including commnader Ahmad Shah Massod are and were agents of foringers,but Hekmatyar, and that is why you still see him fighting the forigners in the Afghan mountains and winning because the people of Afghanistan knows who derserve their leadership. Also I should point out to you, that one can never rule Afghanistan without first agreeing to HEZB directions no matter how many more soliders, plains, tanks and other things you bring into the country, because Hezb is present in all 33 states of Afghanistan, and some people think that they will push Hezb to the side and take over Afghanistan like Germany, Italy, Japan, Saudi Arabia and so on, should think towice because Hezb will fight for every inch of Afghanistan to be free from occupation or governments which are puppet of forigners.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275824557999662261.post-65163192943951897612008-07-21T23:02:00.000-04:002008-07-21T23:02:00.000-04:00My favorite is that the Mosad "JOOS" did it :-)My favorite is that the Mosad "JOOS" did it :-)Anandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03040200275831896147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275824557999662261.post-57668444119228573132008-07-21T11:17:00.000-04:002008-07-21T11:17:00.000-04:00Kabul embassy attack, increased attacks near LOC a...Kabul embassy attack, increased attacks near LOC and increased infiltration,chaos in FATA and SWAT and Hangu are all part of a plot by Kiyani to creat a situation where in he can dump Musharaff, throw away Zardari(and NRO), restore the judges and get stamp of approval from americans for another army rule.After the deadly attack in which 10 americans were killed, the americans rewarded Pakistan with TRIPLING AID AMOUNT, released 4+4 F16s and many more in line and Pakistani army knows the game which it has played all along.Americans and neocons have been always suckered by the Saudies who have found out the clout their lapdog ISI could creat for themAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02774636105865916484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275824557999662261.post-9502155481975864812008-07-21T04:52:00.000-04:002008-07-21T04:52:00.000-04:00The ISI trains, funds and arms jihadis, but thats ...The ISI trains, funds and arms jihadis, but thats only moral and diplomatic training, funding and arming. As opposed to moral and diplomatic(and principled) Pakistani jihadis who sit at home and twiddle their thumbs, all real jihadi attacks are carried out by India Israel and Afghans to malign Pakistan. Um OK. A long as some American or Saudi dollar or dinar baron somewhere is buying it, that is a profitable line to take. Its also Pak Army's bread and butter, do you want Pak Army brass to go on starving rations for the sake of speaking the truth, poor things.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275824557999662261.post-51318485543272000162008-07-21T03:11:00.000-04:002008-07-21T03:11:00.000-04:00Dr Rubin commented a few days back : How long befo...Dr Rubin commented a few days back : How long before someone pointed a finger at India for attacking its own consulate. Well, Dr Rubin, there you have it. This letter comes close enough !!<BR/><BR/>Hizb i Islami (Hekmatyar faction) - HISK - is funded by ISI (Pakistan) and Saudi Arabia. Peter Berger, estimated that of the total aid money received by Pakistan from USA, conservatively US$ 600 million went to HISK. <BR/><BR/>It is the sigle minded tilt of ISI to HISK, that alienated it from Ahmad Shah Massoud (Northern Alliance - NA). Hamid Gul (however much you give him a clean chit, Dr Rubin) was hand in glove with Hetmatyar and his rise. It is this alliance that threatened Benazir Bhutto and who ultimately retired Hamid Gul. This led to a change of ISI's Afghan policy which upset Hekmatyar, who then retired to IRAN. Hamid Gul targetted takeover of Jalalabad for HISK - which he failed, thankfully.<BR/><BR/>A tale of two assasinations :<BR/><BR/>1. Ahmad Shah Massoud of Northern Alliance (bete noir of ISI). Gets killed on 7/11 - two days before 9/11. Convenient ....<BR/><BR/>2. Benazir Bhutto who retired Hamid Gul, herself gets "retired for ever" and HISK comes into prominence and gets back into ISI fold (though this process started earlier).<BR/><BR/>The loss of Afghanistan to Norther Alliance has hurt ISI the most, and HISK is one of the elements that ISI controls in its multi pronged strategy in gaining back the influence. HISK is popular in Konar district as he was truly a war hero, against the Soviets, and many of the locals there remember the lion (Hekmatyar) and fought alongside him. Even though he does not command Pan Pashtun influence, pockets of influence are good enough for ISI to get back the country, province by province.<BR/><BR/>Hence the press release from HISK. Please do not insult our intelligence - it is ISI trying its "disinformation", albeit through HISK. Its so obvious. The visceral hatred of Norther Alliance is shared by ISI and passed on over to HISK.ANJAN SENGUPTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11839277016357848691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275824557999662261.post-43308965142455545782008-07-21T03:06:00.000-04:002008-07-21T03:06:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.ANJAN SENGUPTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11839277016357848691noreply@blogger.com
