Let me explain why I think that
the TTP is backed by India, as a covert operation. (Covert operations are specially designed to be
deniable, so they usually can't be proved to everyone's satisfaction.)
I know Musharraf is a military expert, and after studying his writing and his interviews, I know that he is not the sort of person who tells explicit lies. He explicitly says he has seen documentary evidence of TTP being backed by India. Hence, I accept his testimony.
You question Musharraf's truthfulness because he is "on treason trial in his own country".
But the treason trial has failed, and Musharraf has not been convicted. Now what's the problem? Do you have any better argument than
a failed trial?
You
really start giving bad arguments when you say Pakistan "backed terrorists against Afghanistan during cold war".
Actually,
Pakistan helped Afghans defend themselves against an invasion by India's allies, the Soviet Union during the cold war. Is
that what you call backing terrorists? Helping people to resist a foreign invasion?
You ask "What is so surprising if the Pakistanis now support another group of terrorists, the TTP?" But why on earth would Pakistan's intelligence agencies support the people who have bombed the offices of those same intelligence agencies? Think about that for a bit. This line of reasoning is so nonsensical that it is worse than being childish: most children have more self-respect than to write such garbage.
I started saying that
the TTP is backed by India, as a covert operation. And I am willing to listen to evidence against this, yet so far you have given me only very poor arguments.
