Fazl wants parliament informed about army chief's Kabul visit
[DAWN]  Maulana Fazlur RehmanDeobandi holy man, known as Mullah Dieselduring the war against the Soviets, his sympathies for the Taliban have never been tempered by honesty ... , the ...the political wing of the Pak Taliban... , has called upon Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif ... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf... to take parliament into confidence about the army chief's visit to Afghanistan on Dec 27. Speaking at a presser at the party's secretariat on Sunday, he said the prime minister should explain whether or not Gen Raheel Sharif ..Pak chief of army staff, meaning he pulls the strings on the Nawaz Sharif puppet to make it dance and sing and not do much at all.... had proceeded to Kabul ...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the Worldand didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either.... with his permission. "I am sure that such high-level talks can't take place without the prime minister's consent," the JUI-F chief said when informed that federal ministers had expressed their ignorance in the Senate about the outcome of Gen Raheel's meetings in Kabul. The army chief held talks with the Afghan leadership and reportedly offered Pakistain's role in ending insurgency in that country. Maulana Fazl said if Pakistain could play a role in reconciliation, the Afghan government should take advantage of it and come up with a positive response. It was a very positive approach by Pakistain for bringing peace to Afghanistan, he added. He said tension between Pakistain and India had eased after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Lahore last month. He said parliament should hold a candid debate on the country's relations with Afghanistan and India. Posted by: Fred 2016-01-04 |
