ISLAMABAD (NNI) – Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan chief Hakimullah Mehsud has blamed the controversial American private firm Blackwater for the bomb blast in Peshawar which killed 108 people.
Hakimullah Mehsud told media that if Taliban can carry out attacks in Islamabad and target Pakistan Army’s Headquarters, then why they should target general public.
He claimed that American security agency Blackwater and Pakistani agencies are involved in attacks in public places to blame the militants.
When asked that the people also think that the militants are involved in such attacks, the Taliban leader was quoted as saying, “Our war is against the government and the security forces and not against the people. We are not involved in blasts.”
Azam Tariq, the Taliban spokesman, who was accompanying Hakimullah, warned that those media organisations could be targeted which are defaming Taliban.
Information Minister in Northwest Frontier Province Mian Iftikhar Hussain and the Pakistani Army spokesman Major General Athar Abbas had blamed militants for the Peshawar blast, saying that the militants are facing defeat in South Waziristan tribal region and are now targeting the people.

you have the Taliban -- who admits fighting your very own government -- accusing Blackwater of hiring suicide bombers. Do you not see the ridiculous irony in this story?

Taliban fight against government and militry force and they do admit that but not against the general public but again, i am not support taliban as suicide bombing never accept in any matter even if they use against the goverment or militry force, if they have any conflict they shold come forward and discuss, i know its sounds funny but peace is the solution and discussion will bring back peace in our country. Guys, remember, USA support Taliban in Afghan - Resia fight and that time they called them as HOLY WARIOR but now they are extrimist.......its funny naa

PM said Anteeca ...

The US didn't support the Taliban against Russia. They supported OBL and the Northern Allaince. The Taliban came out of that hell hole after the Soviet invasion.

And I find it ludicrous that you actually BELIEVE anything the Taliban would say, as if they are a credible source. They have an agenda and they have made it clear their agenda is against your government and your military. Now if you don't support your government and military defending your country from a Taliban invasion then that is another matter.

Either way, the whole story is ridiculous but obviously the Taliban knows it doesn't take much to convince Pakistanis that they are innocent. lol

but my understanding is that the mujahideen were primarily the Northern Alliance.

Either way, I think the US should have left Afghanistan to be taken over by the Soviets back then and maybe there would be less trouble for the world today. After all, had you become a part of the Soviet bloc you would be in better shape than you are now. :-P

PM's picture

PM said absolutely navdak ...

I wish my country would just stay at home and use our resources on domestic affairs. I have no doubt that we couldn't resolve our energy needs if we put our minds to it. The problem is that our political and military policies have been controlled by Capitalistic interests for the benefit of a few ultra rich.

I would prefer a world where my country (the US) didn't get involved anywhere outside its borders. Let other people handle their problems and messes and make sure we don't contribute to them -- that's my policy.

made mistakes -- and we have made MANY of them. I personally think the world was a better place when there were 2 so-called super-powers. It kept things in check better. My first preference would be that there would be NO superpower -- but I know my idealistic dream isn't likely to happen. :-)

edifis said During the Cold war era ...

There was a time when the CIA did support the Hindu fundamentalists and the Hindu Extremist elements in India. Many people believe that the RSS and similar parties received huge financial aids from the US government covertly, to build up a radical Hindu party that could defeat the Congress led government which refused to come out of the Soviet Influence and become a US stooge!
Richard Nixon hated our Congress Primeminister Indira Gandhi and called her "an Old Hag" because she refused to liaise with him. Nixon knew that as long as India had true democracy it it could not be controlled by taking into confidence just one person. So he hoped to form a Hindu Fundamentalist Government similar to Taliban which would automatically move away from the Soviet block and lean towards the US. It could be so, that they figured out that The Shankaracharyya could become a figure like Mullah Omar. Thank God, it didn't work out! Although I believe that the US had no hand in forming the Taliban.

Interesting theory. Blackwater was accused of underhand dealings in Iraq and was hired by the CIA to help with a secret program to assassinate top al-Qaeda leaders.

However, I would very much doubt that they have a hand in Pakistan. It would not surprise me though if the local internal security agencies were involved.

I tend to believe the taliban chiefs as it sounds quite logical but the question is about the recruiting of suicide bombers, yet I watch on Indian news channels that they are hired for peanuts in pakistan...

britexpat said blablabla .. ...

Suicide bombers can be people who are brainwashed into believing that they are performing a duty for God or for the good of their country.

They can also be people who are facing such hardships that willing to die in order to perform financial security for their families.

Yes...Suicide Bombers are for Sale in Pakistan. There were incidents where a Suicide Bomber was used to kill an enemy for personal conflicts.

I can mention here one attack on a Member of Punjab Assembly in Bhakkar City. Investigations revealed that he was targetted by one of his rivals with the help of an extremist group from Waziristan.

The Taliban have shot themselves in the foot by committing an atrocity that has shaken even their own supporters so what do they do? Say: "It wasn't us, it was the evil American mercenaries". It's the oldest propaganda trick in the book.

PM: The Taliban were not an offshoot of the Northern Alliance, they were created in the religious schools on the Pakistan border by the Pakistani intelligence agency. The Northern Alliance was composed of the Tajik and Uzbek warlords in the north and was largely in opposition to the Pashtun southerners and completely opposed to the fundamentalist Pashtuns in the Taliban.

Thats what happen when all other dirty tactics failed and a conspiracy beguns. Just how could be a trusted protector started to pocked you in the butt. These poor jihadist are thought to be fighting in the name of god. So what god there is when you started to kill innocent people of your kind. Its a sadistic move, rather lost, desperate and being sidelined from the worlds main society.

britexpat said Paul.. ...

You are right. The sad thing is that the Taliban were created by the Pakistan intelligensia with the full support and knowledge of the CIA.

However, now they have turned against their handlers.

Brit,
considering the little chance that the massacre enjoys any religious endorsement, getting the firt type of recruits is difficult.
Taliban is a religious outfit and enjoys a fair amount of public support too. Government too needs public support to survive which it cann't get without demonizing talibans. Why not think otherwise and investigate the credibility of taliban's accusations?

Perhaps I wasn't clear. I meant that the Taliban was an offshoot of the mess left in Afghanistan after repelling the Soviet invasion.

but this is the fact, that they were comparatively much better for Afghanistan, then the present Bastards.
Perhaps they were financially weak, but there were peace in almost 90% of Afghanistan.
In the last two years of their govt, they have almost banned opium production, where as todays allies are involved in drugs smuggling....

The Taliban used the opium production to finance their armaments. Yes, they did bring some semblence of law and order , but at a price. They became draconian in their methods to control the people.

Father who killed their children.
Father arrested for killing 13 month old daughter.
Father killed his son, to make his wife suffer.
Police man killed wife, two young children.
Man who allegedly killed his wife at YMCA was under court restraint.
