ISIS loyalists vow to eliminate Durand Line
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) loyalists aiming to gain a foothold in Afghanistan have vowed to eliminate the Durand Line in a bid to unite and pave the way for the Moslems divided by the line.
A front man for the terror group's self-proclaimed Khurasan province said the Islamic State eye to destroy the borders similar as they did between Iraq and Syria.
The porous Durand Line has also been a source of tension between Afghanistan and Pakistain where numerous cross-border attacks have been carried out besides the bordering regions have long been and continues to be the main shelter of the terror groups.
In the meantime, affiliates of the terror group have doubled efforts to encourage the dissident high level Taliban capos to join the ISIS group in a bid to further gain foothold in the country.
The front man for the terror group said a delegation of prominent scholars have been sent by the group's Khurasan province chief to Uruzgan province to meet with the senior Taliban leader Mullah Mansoor Dadullah.
This comes as the group claimed yesterday that Mullah Dadullah was rescued from an offensive by the Talibs involving 2,100 fighters in southern Zabul province.
He said at least 230 ISIS fighters were deployed to Zabul from western Farah province to engage the Talibs and rescue Mullah Dadullah.
He also claimed that Mullah Abdul Manan, the brother of the Taliban founder Mullah Mohammad Omar, prefers to join the ISIS group rather than pledging allegiance to the newly appointed Taliban leader Mullah Akhtar Mansoor.
