Pakistan intelligence services failing to weaken
Taliban
By Ahmed Rashid in Lahore
The Telegraph (UK)
October 26, 2001
THE failure of Pakistan's intelligence services to
weaken the Taliban is causing increasing frustration
among the allies.
It's getting embarrassing. The Taliban are not
defecting nor is there any sign that they are
retreating on the ground in the face of all this
bombing, said a diplomat. Perhaps we put too much
faith in Pakistan's ability.
It appears that America is now taking little notice of
Pakistan, which asked Washington not to bomb Taliban
positions on the outskirts of Kabul to delay an
advance on the capital by the anti-Taliban United
Front forces.
US aircraft have now bombed these positions for four
consecutive days but have made little impact on
entrenched Taliban troops. Nor do Pakistani-instigated
defections from the Taliban seem to be forthcoming.
In the past 10 days, two prominent Taliban officials -
Wakil Ahmad Muttawakil, the foreign minister, and
Jalaluddin Haqqani, minister for frontier affairs - as
well as several minor officials have held talks with
Pakistan's Interservices Intelligence (ISI) in
Islamabad about creating a splinter group of Taliban
which would denounce their leader, Mullah Mohammed
Omar.
They returned to Afghanistan only to denounce Pakistan
and America. Their defiant comments, broadcast by BBC
Pashto and Persian services, have strengthened Taliban
resolve.
The ISI is pursuing several strategies. First, it is
trying to split the Taliban and create a new
leadership, which would reach an accommodation with
the UF, eliminate terrorism and set up an Afghan
nationalist rather than an Islamic fundamentalist
government. So far it has not achieved a single
defection.
The ISI is also backing a convention of Pathan tribal
chiefs led by Pir Sayed Ahmad Gailani, a moderate and
spiritual leader from the Pathan belt. Their first
meeting in Peshawar on Wednesday drew some 800
Afghans.
The aim is to create a strong block of anti-Taliban
Pathans, who could determine the fate of the future
government and ensure that the UF, made up of minority
ethnic groups does not come to dominate the next
government - a key Pakistani demand.
At the same time the ISI also appears willing to let
Pathan commanders loyal to the former King Zahir Shah,
who is involved in trying to form a new government,
enter Afghanistan and set up a royalist base in the
south.
Although the ISI and the CIA are co-operating on
intelligence gathering to try to eliminate Osama bin
Laden and the Taliban leaders, the West still
mistrusts the ISI because of its support for the
Taliban over the past seven years. Many ISI operatives
are ideologically committed to the Taliban and are
deeply anti-American.

HISTORY
C_ U_ L_ T_ U_ R_ E
1947-PRESENT DAY
The Islamic state of Pakistan was born. The primary
concern of the new leaders was now to ensure the
economic survival of the country. It was no easy task;
unlike India, Pakistan had not inherited an organized
government. In all areas, the country had to start
from the scratch. There was the additional burden of
absorbing millions of Mahajirs, refugees from India.
But they soon became integrated into the new society,
many of them arriving in Karachi which had been
abandoned by the Hindus at the time of partition.
East and West Pakistan : Pakistan was geographically
unique. No other country in the world was divided into
two by 1,600 kilometers of foreign territory. East
Pakistan was smaller, comprising of one seventh of the
total area but its 45 million people represented 55
percent of the population. The only thing that the two
wings really had in common was religion.
Linguistically, culturally and economically, there
were great differences between East and West Pakistan.
The East was the home of Bengali people, the West was
made up of a tapestry of peoples and cultures of the
four provinces Sindh, Punjab, North West Frontier
Province and Baluchistan, as well as the
semi-autonomous kingdoms of the north.
Kashmir Issue : Much of Pakistan's early history was
dominated by the Kashmir issue and this has remained a
bone of contention between India and Pakistan ever
since. At Independence, Kashmir with its 80 percent
Muslim majority still hadn't chosen whether to join
India or Pakistan. Kashmir was given to a Hindu Gulab
Singh Dogra in 1846 and his descendants had rule ever
since. At the time of Independence, Hari Singh was the
ruler. Pakistani leaders felt that unless they made
the move for Kashmir, they would lose it. Pathan
tribes men led a holy war to save their Muslim
brothers and invaded the state on 22nd October 1947.
Seeing the invaders, Hari Singh panicked and signed
the accord by which Kashmir joined India. Indian Prime
Minister Nehru sent in 100,000 troops to crush what he
claimed was an invasion of Indian territory. United
Nations later determined a line of control, by which
Azad Kashmir was given to Pakistan and the territories
of Baltistan and Ladakh were divided.
Disturbances and Political Unstability : When Jinnah's
died in 1948, Pakistan plunged into mourning. He was
succeeded by Khwaja Nazimuddin, a distinguished
Bengali and with Liaquat Ali Khan as Prime Minister.
At this time, Pakistan was in search of a
constitution. Liaquat Ali Khan, a believer in a
democratic secular state, worked towards presenting a
constitution but before he could proceed far, he was
assassinated in October 1951. A constitution was
finally drawn up in 1956, making Pakistan an Islamic
Republic.
In East Pakistan, autonomy movement was on the rise.
Military generals were not satisfied by the
politicians and they acted in 1958. The constitution
was abolished and martial law was declared. Iskandar
Mirza, president at that time, was forced to resign
and was replaced by General Mohammad Ayub Khan.
Once again, Kashmir issue surfaced. The willingness of
the Pakistanis to comply with UN resolution of
Kashmiri people deciding their own desting had never
been matched by the same kind of enthusiasm on the
part of the Indians. In 1964, India refused free vote
for the Kashmiris which resulted in a war in August
1965. The war lasted for a merely 17 days. While the
war itself came to an inconclusive end, the
overwhelming Muslim majority in Kashmir remained
subjects of India.
East Pakistan Conflict : Ayub Khan handed over power
to Commander-in-Chief General Agha Muhammad Yahya Khan
in March 1969. It was Yahya Khan's aim to restore
parliamentary democracy and he set elections for the
following year. In the elections, there were two main
contenders; Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, leader of Pakistan
People's Party (PPP) which towards the end of 1960s
had gained huge popular support in the West, and
Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's Awami League, which had
emerged as the strongest party in Bengal. Election
resulted in PPP winning the majority of seats in the
West and Rahman's Awami League winning by big margin
in the East. Bengal was in population majority and the
League claimed it was in a position to dominate the
new National Assembly. The two leaders were on a
collision course. The dispute led to strikes and
Rahman declaring East Bengal a separate state in March
1971. The government of Pakistan was

Assalamualaikum,
Dalam kesibukan kita memperkatakan tentang undi pos
tentera yang sudah tidak lagi relevan serta penampilan
beberapa bekas tentera yang membuat pengakuan mengenai
hak mengundi mereka yang dinafikan selama ini, tentera
di Pakistan membuat kejutan dengan merampas kuasa
sekali lagi.
Yang peliknya, dia orang kat sini pulak yang banyak
bagi komen. Tak demokratiklah, tak ikut hasrat
rakyatlah, dsbnya. Ada apa-apa ke?
