| [Pak Daily Times] Member of the Taliban negotiating committee Yousuf Shah Saturday said the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP) has given a list of 765 'non-combatant' prisoners they want to be released. Talking to the media at local airport, he said dialogue was the only solution to the problem. However, Switzerland makes more than cheese... he said, there were some obstacles which needed to be removed for the success of the grinding of the peace processor. He said those who were opposing the dialogue did not want peace in the country. "What was the outcome of engaging the war machine in those areas for the last 12 years? None of the tribal region was cleared ever," he said. He urged both Taliban and the government to reconsider a ceasefire. To a question, he said both sides would present their demands which would be discussed during talks. About kidnapped Syed Ali Haider Gilani, he said former prime minister Yusuf Raza Gilani ... Pakistain's erstwhile current prime minister, whose occasional feats of mental gymnastics can be awe-inspiring ... had visited Akora Khattak for help and they had tried their best to find a clue to Ali Haider Gilani but to no avail. Yousuf also advocated dialogue with estranged Baloch people. Meanwhile, ...back at the shattered spaceship, Fffflirgoll the Arcturan slithered stealthily toward the control room, where the humans had barricaded themselves... Jamaat-e-Islami ... The Islamic Society, founded in 1941 in Lahore by Maulana Sayyid Abul Ala Maududi, aka The Great Apostosizer. The Jamaat opposed the independence of Bangladesh but has operated an independentbranch there since 1975. It maintains close ties with international Mohammedan groups such as the Moslem Brotherhood. the Taliban, and al-Qaeda. The Jamaat's objectives are the establishment of a pure Islamic state, governed by Sharia law. It is distinguished by its xenophobia, and its opposition to Westernization, capitalism, socialism, secularism, and liberalist social mores... leader and member Taliban negotiating committee Professor Ibrahim once again expressed his reservations over the progress in government-Taliban dialogue process. Talking to a private TV channel, Ibrahim said that the committee was trying to take the process ahead despite several difficulties. To a question about the dissolution of government committee, he said government has the authority to take any decision about its committee. He said that the committee is constantly in contact with the Taliban leadership to decide about the venue and time for the next meeting. Ibrahim said it was necessary to remove reservations of both sides so that the dialogue process moves ahead. |
