Syed Khalid Muhammad, Executive Director - CommandEleven, spoke with Sputnik India's Pawan Atri about the Durand Line conflict between Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Syed Khalid Muhammad, Executive Director of CommandEleven, spoke in detail with Sputnik India’s Pawan Atri about Pakistan’s challenges with the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and the Taliban government in Kabul.
It would be important to remember here that the party leadership has had personal relations with Joe Biden since he was a Senator Joe Biden who was allegedly responsible, at that time, for overseeing the ongoing drone program in Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Let’s recall our memories of a speech of a senior Pak Army official that he delivered as the chief guest at a military educational institution in Rawalpindi on India’s Republic Day in 2014, asserting that India poses no greater threat to Pakistan but extremism/terrorism does.
The reasons of split between Rawalpindi and Banigala, leading to Imran Khan’s ouster from power remain a mystery to many while it is an established fact that Rawalpindi and Aabpara, jointly, paved Imran Khan’s way to the power in the first place. Before explaining the genesis of the split, it is imperative to note that Rawalpindi and Aabpara are two different entities with usual professional rivalry that, occasionally, reaches to conformation.
This post is a historical collection of what CommandEleven has said in the past about the activities of the Islamic State – Khorasan Province (ISKP) and the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).
The Kandahari Faction of the Taliban has often been overshadowed by other factions and militant groups, but its relevance in shaping the Afghan insurgency and regional geopolitics cannot be understated. While most focus on the Taliban as a monolithic entity, or pay particular attention to the Haqqani Network due to its operational audacity, the Kandahari Faction represents a unique amalgam of ideological resilience, military capability, and strategic diplomacy that has long-lasting implications for peace and security in Afghanistan and beyond.
The Haqqani Network stands as one of Afghanistan's most notorious insurgent groups. With close ties to the Taliban and led by the Haqqani family, this network has played a significant role in the country's conflict.
Emboldened for the reason that the Taliban could not take action against them because senior al-Qaeda (AQ) commanders and fighters believed the TTP was right in striking Pakistan for their position during the War on Terror. Noor Wali Mehsud was so confident on this belief that he told both the Prime Minister and the Deputy Defence Minister of Afghanistan that if the Taliban continued to push the TTP to stop cross-border attacks they would pledge their allegiance to ISKP.
There are some Pakistani X handles advocating in favor of creating a buffer zone between Pakistan and Afghanistan. We fully believe those that are advocating for the creation of such an area are either misinformed, lack the proper knowledge or are conspiring to ceded Pakistani territory to terrorists.
