So CIA was tricked by ISI?
Sure some afghani and indian members are entertained by the idea and quick to point at Pakistan for Afghanistan's misery. Well, if that's the case and baradar shouldn't have been captured, being a key figure in the peace process, why doesn't the CIA release and put him back into the ocean as a goodwill gesture and speed up the peace process?
I don't think Pakistan and ISI would do anything to oppose the American will.

Seems like New york times is on Indian payroll!! or perhaps it is Dexter Filkins!!

By the cheapness of this report we can claim it is Indian.

So while The US and it's Afghan satrap make charges that Pakistan continues to have contact with the Taliban, both the US and it's Afghan client not only continue to have contacts with the taliban, they are actually on talking terms - but the ISI are bad guys?

The duplicity of US policy and policy makers should be sobering for those Pakistanis who think that relations with the US can be, even ought to be, "strategic".

What is now clear from the leaks a section of the US intel community uses the NYT for and from the Wikileaks case, is that US policy is in the hands of amateurs - and unfortunately, worst still for the US public, they cannot hold these policy makers or even the policy accountable.

Multiple reports allude to the fact that Pakistan wants to be middle agent for any deal between Afghanistan and Afghan Taliban. Nothing new in this report.

So much for your self interest doctrine.... we have been hearing from ever.

@ Muse: It is not US foreign ministry which controls US media it is US media which controls US foreign policy.
Media is a industry, owned by selfish profiteers.

By the cheapness of this report we can claim it is Indian.

Now now... don't become green-eyed and apprehensive!!!

If your allies are turning against you ..it not our fault ..its your own doing.

Nobody is turning against anyone. Such crap is posted dozens of times in different newspapers. Nothing happens. Actually everyone has the right to express his/her opinion.

If ISI is the bad guys for being in contact with Taliban then what does it make the CIA for creating them in the first place?

Afghanistan has now become the playground of the great game engaging Iran, Russia, India and Pakistan simultaneously by the US at the behest if Israel. Now the world hardly questions about 9/11 which tiggered this entire thing. WOt is an old forgotten phenomenon in today's date.

The focus is now on

- Russia the old rival of US and supporter of Iran's nuclear program.
- Iran to safeguard Israel interest.
- India to engage them in Afghanistan against Pak.
- Pakistan the only Muslim country with nuclear weapons again a threat to Israel.


No one is saint in this great game and this has nothing to do with WOt anymore.

Pakistan is just putting its national interests first.

We ahve argued that US policy is nothing but duplicity and that Afghans are innocent victims of their governments collusion with the duplicyt of the US/ISAF

Look at this and decide, especially the Afghan forum members:

US helped promote talks with Taliban: Gen Petraeus
Thursday, 26 Aug, 2010


WASHINGTON: The US commander in Afghanistan on Wednesday said he supported efforts to broker a settlement with the Taliban and that the United States had helped promote dialogue with militants in some “isolated cases”.

In an interview with the Fox News channel, Gen David Petraeus said the Afghan government was leading the effort to open talks with Taliban leaders while the United States closely followed the process.
“The US is very much in the information loop and in a couple of cases has helped in a sense, but is not doing the negotiation,” Gen Petraeus said, according to excerpts of the interview.

“Actually in a couple of isolated cases there’s been a degree of facilitation, if you will,” he said.

The war in Afghanistan would have to end based on a negotiation, like other insurgencies elsewhere, including Iraq, he said. “We sat down across the table in Iraq from individuals who had our blood on their hands. It’s what’s done in just about any insurgency as you get to the end stages of it.”

Top US officials have said repeatedly that attempts to negotiate a deal with militant leaders will likely only succeed once the Taliban sense they have lost the upper hand on the battlefield.

But the commander’s remarks marked a growing willingness by Washington to support a negotiated settlement, provided the militants promise to break links with Al Qaeda and meet other conditions.—Agencies

In the weeks after Mr. Baradar’s capture, Pakistani security officials detained as many as 23 Taliban leaders, many of whom had been enjoying the protection of the Pakistani government for years. The talks came to an end.

and they were plotting against Pak by conducting secret talks. They should have been tried for treason and hanged.
