ISIS Has Master Plan for Pakistan, Secret Memo Warns

The kind of isis involvement I see in Pakistan is taliban changing their name and calling themselves isis. It could be the entire ttp or a splinter group etc makes no difference. And as long as the army pressure is ratcheted up against them to their ultimate end, I don't see isis setting an effective hold in Pakistan.

So this is another Indian way to target Balochistan province by doing corrupt propaganda.

Afghanistan border needs to SHUT down... Mine the border. Get rid of the Pashtunwali code.

You guys are celebrating the success of Operation Zarb already? Do you not want to claim that after the dust settles?

You have nailed it. It's the same with all Muslims in the UK really, no grass-roots spiritualist can compete with the Gulf megabucks. :(

'Modernisation' also plays a part; ridiculing the spiritual aspects of Islam seems the modern thing to do, while the harsh austerity of Deobandism / Wahhabism is celebrated as more real. It's funny because in reality it's often very counter-intuitive and counter productive. There is a reason why so many of these people end up frustrated enough to kill people - their beliefs don't bring them peace of mind.

The ideology being funded crosses all national and ethnicity borders. There are some Bosniak Muslims in UK being radicalised by Wahabi ideology. Same goes for Albanians too. Even though most of Albanian Muslims are influenced by Sufism or are not even practising Muslims at all.

UETTA, Pakistan — ISIS has created a 10-man "strategic planning wing" with a master plan on how to wage war against the Pakistani military, and is trying to join forces with local militants, according to a government memo obtained by NBC News.
"They are now planning to inflict casualties to Pakistan Army outfits who are taking part in operation Zarb-e-Azb," says the alert, referring to the military offensive against the Pakistani Taliban and other militants that was launched in June in a tribal region near the Afghan border.

Labeled "secret," the memo was sent by the government of Balochistan, a southwestern province that borders Afghanistan, to authorities and intelligence officials across Pakistan last week. Akber Durrani, the province's home secretary, called it "routine" and said Sunni militant group and its sympathizers do not have a stronghold there. .

But the document suggests that ISIS has Pakistan in its cross-hairs, warning that the group aims to stir up sectarian unrest by dispatching the local militant group Lashkar-e-Jhangvi on offensives against Pakistan's minority Shiite Muslim community, further destabilizing a country already battling Taliban and al Qaeda elements. Most Pakistanis are Sunni Muslims. Mistrust has existed between Shiites and Sunnis for around 1,400 years.

Secret letter sent by the government of Balochistan regarding ISIS activity in Pakistan.
ISIS has seized large areas of Syria and Iraq. It claims to have recruited 10,000 to 12,000 followers in tribal areas on the Afghan border, including in Hangu, which is known for hostility between Shiites and Sunnis, the memo says.

Lashkar-e-Jhangvi, which has claimed responsibility for violence against Shiites, and Sipa-e Muhammed, which has struck against Sunnis, were banned after 9/11.

Just days ago, the chief minister of Balochistan, Dr. Malik Baloch, told journalists he had no information about the presence of ISIS in the province. "However, there are fundamentalists whose approach is similar to that of ISIS," he said.

The memo recommended "strict monitoring" of militants and "extreme vigilance" to ward off any attacks.



What is a Caliphate?

  • There have been other signs of ISIS flexing its muscles in the region. In late September, a pamphlet apparently made by the self-proclaimed caliphate was distributed among Afghan refugees in Pakistan exhorting them to pledge allegiance and and lashing out against "America and the rest of the infidels."

    In late September, ISIS-aligned militants launched a brutal offensive in Afghanistan alongside Taliban fighters that has left more than 100 people dead. Fifteen family members of local police officers were beheaded and at least 60 homes were set ablaze, officials said.

I think It will easy to break Pakistan if ISIS take over some part of Pakistan but It will be scary too see ISIS on Indian borders

Nothing more than TTP crying and begging for help after getting their asses kicked in zarb e azb.

We are not Syria and neither are we Iraq. Why don't you come and find out so we can fine tune our counter terrorism strategy even further.

TTP was in control of areas within Pakistan as well. Same old news, same old foes.

The old generation of British Pakistanis have lost control on the younger generation. Most of them are brelvi yet their sons and grandsons are all Salafi. I think radicalising is happening mostly in smaller mosques, universities, colleges and street corners.

Those kids have identity crisis that's their problem

Whereas their parents are hard working folks

Lol @ ISIS... Come at me bro..we'll bomb them back to the stone age from whence they came. Like all other terrorists. To be crunched beneath our feet like the vermin they are!

Only gonna happen if they hve huge civilian support as well as some government officials on the inside. That's what keeps ISIS from expanding
