A Profile of Khan Said: Waliur Rahman’s Successor in the Pakistani Taliban

sadhana

As someone mentioned earlier in the thread, it seems very likely that TTP is then simply a pressure group applied by jihad pasand officers and ex-officers on Pak Army brass. That's why Imran Khan will not say anything to condemn TTP and instead keeps bloviating on Pashtuns in distress over drones. H...

Well, implying that lack of sufficient vegetables in diet is cause for idiocy and mass-murdering proclivities of Hamid Gul type PA officers is defamatory to meat-eaters

Re Nanga Parbat Here's my (somewhat defamatory) guess. Some genius ex-PA like Hamid Gul or ISI-on-contract was behind the planning/concept. They wanted to precipitate an international incident involving Umrikans near about Kerry's visit because drones are really killing the Taliban-minded literally ...

To be honest, they look typical TFTA Pakjabi to me. Would even say Lahori (urbanized Pakjabi) to really go out on a limb.

India should be alert for similar backpack attacks, particularly if these men are Pakistanis. Every time Pak is 'humiliated' on the international stage, they make themselves feel better by killing Indians.

Time-pass speculation: Probably they caught one guy identified from the photos/videos and are yet to catch the second guy- and so don't want the second guy to know that the first guy is caught. Maybe even trying entrapment. This is what comes of watching crime TV shows.

Why do India and the Indian government have to be bashed on every single thread on BRF? If moderators can not keep the thread on topic why have them (moderators and thread topics)?
