Taliban refuse to rule out ties with Israel​

KABUL: A spokesman for the Taliban refused to rule out establishing relations with Israel during an interview with Al-Jazeera on Wednesday. Earlier statements by the movement ruled this out, according to a clip shared by Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).
“Our policy is to resolve problems through dialogue and mutual understanding with everybody. Whoever has a problem and wants to resolve it, we are perfectly ready,” the spokesman for the Taliban’s Political Bureau Dr Muhammad Naeem, told Al-Jazeera.
When the interviewer questioned if this included Israel, Naeem responded, “What problem do we have with Israel? Next thing someone will ask if we are willing to (have a dialogue) with Mars.”
The interviewer responded by asking if the Taliban really doesn’t have a problem with Israel, with Naeem responding “I don’t know...This is the media for you...You bring stuff from the end of the world and throw it into the mix of our reality here. This is very strange.”
“If a country or a person does not have a problem with us, can you ask whether we are willing to resolve the problems with people we have nothing to do with? I think that asking this is unreasonable.”
Despite the seeming openness to consider establishing relations with Israel, the Taliban has explicitly stated in the past that it is not willing to build relations with Israel. “Of course, we won’t have any relation with Israel. We want to have relations with other countries; Israel is not among these countries,” said Suhail Shaheen, the spokesman for the movement, in an interview with Sputnik News last September.

Exactly.
Iran is the most dangerous enemy to Pakistan. Unlike India, Iran has millions of blind worshippers in Pakistan.
A nuclear Iran would be a nightmare for Pakistan.

Pakistan does have a minor pro-India lobby amongst the Muhajir upper class and to some extent amongst the Sindhi upper class & upper middle class.

But the scary part is it's not just Shia fanatics who worship them. These pan-Islamic ummah types are also widespread amongst the Sunnis as well.

Yes, keep being afraid, I wonder if you lose sleep at night, meanwhile India has 100's of nukes pointed at every major city in Pakistan, growing economy, and growing navy designed to blockade all of Pakistan's ports. And you're out here worrying about a country that doesn't have any.

Ignore the uncle sam worshippers.

As a Pakistani, I want good relations with all our neighbors except India.

I’m not for a nuclear Iran but what I’m seeing is that the “threat of Iran nuclear toy” is serving perfectly the Israeli main objective of Great Israel.

This is what happens when you goatherders get power.

They had to issue a rebuttal.

There is no mention of Taliban holding talks with or intending to do so. Misconstrued and manipulative, yet ignorant journalism.

We’re not worried about the military capabilities of our enemies. We’re worried if we’ll have enough space to bury all our enemies. But rest reassured we’ll suffocate our enemies to a painful death.
