US demands Taliban prevent use of Afghan soil for terrorist attacks
 ...Arabic for students... to ensure that the terrorist attacks are not launched from their soil. You know what they say. Demand in one hand... State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller said this in response to a query seeking his comments on a recent terrorist attack in which seven people, including two security forces personnel and five civilians, including children, were martyred in Dera Ismail Khan ... the Pearl of Pashtunistan ... The security personnel were martyred in an hours-long exchange of fire with the terrorists, and again, these are murderous Moslems coming from the "safe haven in Afghanistan", the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said. "On the night between July 15 and 16, the murderous Moslems carried out a cowardly attack on the Rural Health Center (RHC), Kirri Shamozai in the Dera Ismail Khan District and opened indiscriminate fire on RHC staff." Addressing a news briefing, Miller said: "We do continue to urge the Taliban to ensure that terrorist attacks are not launched from the Afghan soil." The spokesperson said that it had been a priority for the US in engagements with them, and it continues to be. He reiterated that the Pak people have suffered greatly at the hands of "We have a shared interest with the Pak people and the government of Pakistain in combating threats to regional security."
