Amu: Mohsin Dawar, the leader of National Democratic Movement and a former member of Pakistan’s parliament, has said that none of Pakistan’s attacks inside Afghanistan had killed Taliban commanders or members, questioning the military’s stated objectives. “You go as far as Kabul and Kandahar in pursuit of the Afghan Taliban,” he said at a press conference in Peshawar. “But what about their centers in Waziristan, Peshawar, Islamabad and Lahore?” Dawar accused Pakistan’s security establishment of maintaining longstanding ties with militant groups while publicly portraying them as security threats. “All those people whom you now call terrorists were your strategic assets,” he said. “They were your assets in the past, they are your assets today and they will remain so unless you abandon this Taliban project.” Click here to read more (external link).
