Taliban warn army off aid work
2009-01-31
The Taliban on Friday distributed leaflets in Miranshah and Mir Ali in the North Waziristan Agency warning the Pakistan Army not to set up medical camps, open schools or hospitals in the area. The Taliban warned the army and the NGOs to stop their activities in the agency as 'through these activities they were misleading the tribal people'. "We warn the army and NGOs to refrain from mischief and carrying out such work otherwise they will be responsible for any losses," said the leaflet in Urdu, a copy of which was obtained by AFP.

#1  Only the Taliban are allowed to treat, educate and feed the people. No one else may attempt to buy the support of the communities. The government must give us the materials for these activities. Or we will blow up the schools, burn hospitals and execute the teachers and doctors. Because we are humanitarian and we 'care.'
