Taliban try to spread fighting in Pakistani tribal belt


www.guardian.co.uk
Taliban militants backed by al-Qaida trainers are stepping up a campaign of violent destabilisation across Pakistan's tribal belt to divert forces from the battle in the Swat valley, a senior Pakistani commander said today.

"They are trying [to spread the fighting] but it's not significant enough for us to divert our attention," said Major General Tariq Khan, the commander of the 50,000-strong Frontier Corps, speaking to the Guardian at his Peshawar headquarters.

I think this probably has to do with the Brzezinski plan. It's been known for a while that he wants to get his hands on Pakistan. He's talked about it in private speeches to the Royal Institute of International affairs. Webster Tarpley was warning about this 08 and Obama mentioned Pakistan in his campaign speeches. And now, magically, as if on cue, we see a load of yellow journalism articles come out about the evils of the Pakistani warlords- an attempt to soften public opinion...

We need to look behind the headlines and work out who's feeding them to us and why...

Brzezinski's Secret Talk

This is the first part of an off the record talk Brzezinski gave to British elites in Autumn 08. Pakistan is mentioned more than a few times...

Balochistan is totally under the radar of Western corporate media. But not the Pentagon’s. An immense desert comprising almost 48% of Pakistan’s area, rich in uranium and copper, potentially very rich in oil, and producing more than one-third of Pakistan’s natural gas, it accounts for less than 4% of Pakistan’s 173 million citizens. Balochs are the majority, followed by Pashtuns. Quetta, the provincial capital, is considered Taliban Central by the Pentagon, which for all its high-tech wizardry mysteriously has not been able to locate Quetta resident “The Shadow”, historic Taliban emir Mullah Omar himself.
