Mullah Omar asked Musharraf to bomb Kandahar: US cable

[iioal malik]

Should have done it.........

That mullah from madrasah, ruling 26 million people is now dead you should worry about the uneducated saffron pujari ruling 1.3 billion idiots.

When a person with no rational worldview becomes ruler, such idiocy is bound to happen. A mullah from A maddarsah became ruler of a country and Pakistan for one reason or another became his biggest supporter. A stupid friend is always dangerous.

The word is mulla, not mullah.

That it did, but it is also an example of the total rednecks one had to deal with when it came to these Taliban. They were arrogant in their ideals and so were many of their supporters within the Pakistani military system(until they were slowly rooted out.. unfortunately, only retired in the employment sense and not in the "late" sense). They were so convinced that their position in the inaccessible lands of Afghanistan gave them utter impunity to do whatever they wanted.

A little known fact is that the Taliban in cohorts with some of their supporters hijacked a bus in Pakistan and demanded that some assets of the Pakistan air force be transferred to the Taliban(who were then fighting against the Northern alliance and had lost a majority of their airforce to recently transferred Sam systems from India)

Do tell more about out SAM transfers

No transfers. This is the early 1990's.. Russian hardware was available like Kellogs cereal on the black market.

I don't believe in such cable leaks by US as the purpose of these cable leaks are only to cause unwanted panic in Pakistan & specially against PA.

Afghan taliban did not become Pakistans hizbullah. This was a failure. Afghan Taliban followed a very rigid policy and were infact like ISIS.

Pakistan was also unhappy because Afghan Taliban also started giving asylum to extremists who killed and ran to afghanistan. These issues complicated the issues.

Today, if taliban are to survive politically, they must follow a hezbullah type model. A pressure group that maintains political presence and helps the local people and above all protects the parent country's interests.

Could be a YES. After all, they helped plan Taliban operations against the Indian supported Northern Alliance before 2001.


SSG stormed the bus and killed them. What is important to know is that the way intel agencies operate is that not everyone is supporting the same thing. There are divisions that run their own operations at times which gets other people into trouble. To get an understanding of this, the hollywood flick "The Spy Game" may not be a bad watch even if it is a little carried away.

So back then, the ISI may be looking to replace air assets for their Taliban help and would try to get them but the PAF refused to do so or the major PA brass would refuse. That does not mean that the non-officer and non-payroll asset of the ISI who may be retired and semi-Taliban himself may not think of having Taliban Hijack a bus to try and force this to happen. That is because his goal is to get the Taliban air power against Northern Alliance which he believes is his current war; and feels that the needs of the PAF are less than his.

May be this is the incident you are referring to

Unrealistic mindset of Mullah Umer caused the downfall of Talibans in Afghanistan. As a result of his illogical decisions, his country fell into the hands of Americans. Afghans have been under direct slavery of Americans since 2001.

This is why rational education is more important than Madrassa PhD...he started to think he was under protection of some divine power..
