SOMEWHERE IN WAZIRISTAN: The
Afghan Taliban are financially
supporting the Pakistani militants
and providing sanctuary to them in
Afghanistan, spokesman for the
Pakistani Taliban has said.
The disclosure, which the spokesman
made on Saturday in an interview
with a small group of reporters, is
meaningful because Pakistan has
long been accused of pursuing a
policy of differentiating between the
Afghan and Pakistan Taliban as so-
called good and bad militants ---
even though Islamabad denies this.
The Afghan Taliban are our ******
brothers, said Shahidullah Shahid
in an interview in Waziristan, the
Talibans main tribal sanctuary in
Pakistan along the Afghan border.
In the beginning, we were helping
them, but now they are strong
enough and they dont need our
help, but they are now supporting
us financially.
The Afghan Taliban were also
providing sanctuary for a prominent
Pakistani commander, Mullah
Fazlullah, in eastern Afghanistans
Kunar province, said Shahid.
The Pakistani Taliban have financed
many of their attacks through a
combination of kidnapping for
ransom cases, extortion and bank
robberies. But Shahids comments
indicate these sources of financing
do not always provide the funds they
need.
Shahid reiterated the Talibans view
that peace talks would not succeed
unless the government released all
militant prisoners and withdrew the
army from the tribal region. He also
demanded an end to US drone
strikes targeting militants in the
tribal region.
Yes, we are terrorists, but we are
against the system of the infidels,
said Shahid. We will fight up to our
last drop of blood to impose Sharia
(Islamic) law in the country.
The interview took place in a
guestroom attached to a mud house.
The Taliban requested that the
reporters refrain from revealing
exactly where in Waziristan the
house was located.
Shahid arrived at the house
surrounded by bodyguards in a
vehicle with tinted windows. He
wore white shalwar kameez and a
green army jacket. One of the
pockets contained a grenade.
After the interview, the reporters
were served a meal of beef curry,
rice, fruit and cold Pepsi and
Mountain Dew.AP
