Pakistan Must Kill The Monster It Created

The Pakistanis created the Taleban monster in order to prevent a nationalist
government in Afghanistan from taking power. For decades now, Pakistan has wanted to control Kabul using these savages grossly mislabeled as Muslims.
The actions of the Taleban, and the brutality in which they execute their
punishments on many innocent civilians goes against the very nature of Islam.
Up until late 2001, this Pakistani created monster was successful in nearly destroying
Afghanistan and killing numerous women and children. Working with Arab
terrorists, they even managed to kill the major resistance leader fighting
against them, and they basically had much of Afghanistan conquered on behalf of
their Pakistani masters. Then the attacks of September 11th occurred in the
United States and Osama bin Laden, a major ally of the Taleban was held
responsible by the Americans. The Americans demanded Osama bin Laden be
handed over, however, the Taleban refused. So, in response, the Americans
invaded Afghanistan and eventually, the Taleban were removed from power and an
Afghan government was put in place. The Pakistanis were now being forced to help
destroy the very monster they created. Under intense international pressure,
they publicly agreed to support the new Afghan government and work with them to
destroy the Taleban.
As time went by, it was very clear that the Pakistanis had no intentions to
destroy their monster, instead they secretly protected it, hoping that one day
the United States would walk away from Afghanistan, and once again they can be
used to conquer Kabul. Publicly, the Pakistanis would declare their allegiance
to the Americans and announce that they were against the Taleban, and secretly
they provided the Taleban with money and looked the other way when Taleban
militants would cross the border into Pakistan after an attack on US or Afghan
government forces. Soon, the Americans started to forget about Afghanistan, and
instead focused on conquering Iraq. The Pakistanis took advantage of this and
the Taleban started to become stronger and stronger. Now, they have become a
very powerful force again in Afghanistan, as many of the areas in the east and
the south are under their control.
The Taleban monster has grown so strong that it not only threatens peace in
Afghanistan but in Pakistan as well! The very monster the Pakistanis created to
subdue and destroy Afghanistan is now starting to take over parts of Pakistan.
The Pakistani government has already failed to defeat them militarily in certain
areas and have even resorted to making deals with them in order to save face.
They are no longer subject to the laws of Pakistan, and are free to rule over
certain parts of Pakistan. Technically, one can even make the argument that
these areas are no longer parts of Pakistan. They have made their own
masters nervous, as they grow out of control day by day, and the illegal drug
business is giving them plenty of money to fund themselves. The exact numbers
are hard to come by, but the Taleban profit millions from the drug trade.
At first when someone thought of the Taleban, automatically Afghanistan would
come into their
mind, now it's Afghanistan and Pakistan. The future of both countries are now under
serious threat. Unfortunately, while the strengthening of the Taleban in Pakistan makes
its leaders nervous, it's not clear if it makes them nervous enough to finally
realize the monster they created might end up destroying them as well. The
Pakistani leadership must realize that if they do not work with the Afghans to
stop this monster, they will one day capture Islamabad as they captured Kabul in
September 1996. Islamabad will become like Kabul under the Taleban where women
were forced to wear burqas, denied basic rights, men forced to wear beards, and
civilians tortured and killed.
A new administration has taken over in Washington and the focus has shifted
from Iraq back to Afghanistan and Pakistan. Now is the time for Pakistan to help
stop its Taleban monster from destroying Afghanistan and Pakistan. It's time to
act now for the sake of both countries.
