| Mehsud to head Taliban Movement of Pakistan |
| 2007-12-15 |
| Various Taliban groups active in the Tribal Areas and the NWFP claimed to have established a joint organisation, the Taliban Movement Pakistan, in South Waziristan with Baitullah Mehsud as its head, reported BBC Urdu. The Taliban, the BBC said, had announced that no agreement would now be signed with the Pakistani government for any area and that their newly established organisation would take a joint decision in this regard. Taliban commander from South Waziristan Baitullah Mehsud told BBC that a meeting of 20 Taliban representatives from all seven agencies in the Tribal Areas and NWFP was held on Friday in which the Taliban Movement of Pakistan was formed. He said the meeting also formed a 40-member consultative committee (shura) to be headed by him. Maulvi Umar has been chosen as spokesman for the committee, Mehsud added. |

#2  Must be something in WazooStan's water that makes all them Talibs so camera shy. In spite of all the Power and Influence Talibunny Commander Baitullah Mehsud wields in them thar parts, this is the best and ONLY Pic that I could find of Mr. Smelly-Sharia-Pantz, on al Gore's Internet. |

| #1 Sounds like sedition to me. Will Perv now allow the US to blow the paktalis to he$$ and gone in the tribal areas? I doubt it, but it WOULD be "refreshing" - for us. I'm sure we could give a vew thousand talibunnies a gigantic headache if we even half tried. |
