Afghanistan's UN Ambassador on United States Air-Strikes, Terrorism, and Pakistani Support for the Talebs

August 22, 1998 (EurasiaNews) - Afghanistan's UN Ambassador, Dr. Rawan Farhadi indicated to EurasiaNews in a telephone interview that the recent American air strikes on terrorist base camps in Taleb controlled areas near the Afghanistan-Pakistan border were having the paradoxical effect of creating sympathy for the Talibs in Pakistan and other Muslim countries. Any United States military action against a self-proclaimed "Islamic" political organization is likely to elicit a strong response from an important segment of the population in these countries, whether that action is justifiable or not.

Dr. Farhadi said that high officials in the Paksitani government were beginning to realize that the Pakistani intelligence services' policy of support for the Taleban in Afghanistan was having dire consequences for Pakistan. Unfortunately, he indicated, the Pakistani intelligence, service, known as the ISI, was like a "state within a state" outside the control of the Pakistani government. He recommended that officials of the United States intelligence community should meet with the leaders of Pakistan's ISI and put strong pressure on them to end their support for the Talebs and other perpetrators of terrorism.

Ambassador Farhadi indicated that the self proclaimed Taleb government has effective control only of Afghan cities. Throughout much of the Afghan countryside, the population is hostile to the Talebs, and guerilla fighters are hiding in wait for favorable opportunities to strike vulnerable Taleb military forces.

Dr. Farhadi is the UN envoy of the government of Burhaneddin Rabbani, which was driven from Kabul by the Pakistani-sponsored Taleb army in September 1996. The Rabbani government, which is recognized as Afghanistan's legitimate government by Russia, Iran, and many other countries, continues to occupy the country's seat at the United Nations.

In recent weeks, Pakistani supported Taleb forces have launched a major military offensive in northern Afghanistan against forces loyal to the Afghan government in a campaign to establish total control over the country. A few days ago, Pakistani newspapers and international wire services reported that in Pakistan's Northwest Frontier Province, religious schools were being closed down so that students could join the Taleb offensive. Pakistan's massive financial, logistical, and military support for the Taleb army is a poorly kept secret in Pakistan, and the country's newspapers regularly feature detailed reports on the nature and extent of this support.

Perhaps because of the recent spectacular embassy bombings and retaliatory air strikes, the massive Pakistan supported Taleb offensive in northern Afghanistan has received only scant attention in the US mass media. Commentators and journalists have paid little attention to the connection between Pakistan's intelligence and military services, their Taleb clients in Afghanistan, and the international terrorist network in Taleb controlled territory.

On the eve of the the US airs strikes, the Talebs refused a United States request to extradite Osama Bin Laden, the principal leader and organizer of an Islamist extremist network which maintains the guerilla training camps that were targeted by the US military in its retaliation for the embassy bombings. US officials say they have evidence that Ben Laden financed the recent bombing of US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. Both Paksitan and the Taleb authorities in Afghanistan have strongly condemned the US air strikes against the camps.
