| [DAWN] The Taliban ...Arabic for students... say they "categorically reject" a statement made this week by the US commander of coalition forces in Afghanistan about "off stage" contacts and dialogue taking place between the Kabul government and the Lion of Islams. Taliban front man Zabihullah Mujahid says in a statement distributed to the media on Friday that Gen John Nicholson’s remarks, made to news hounds at the Pentagon from his Kabul office, were a "baseless claim." Nicholson said that "mid-level, senior-level Taliban leaders" are "engaging with Afghans," adding that unspecified international organizations, foreign governments and other interested parties also are involved. |
