Re: Analyzing one of Imran Khan’s claim: Was there Taliban terrorism before 2003?

well according to ur statement if that is so, then all the religious parties of all the sects present in pakistan alongwith their followers are taliban becoz they fight against each other and conduct secterian violences. so u are wrong

@khoji

That’s the point. There was Taliban terrorism present even before 2003/4. It was not directed at Pakistan general population because at that time Pakistan was supporting Taliban in their fasaad in Afghanistan.
But as soon as Pakistan stopped supporting Taliban terrorism in Afghanistan, they started attacking Pakistan and Pakistanis as well.

Hence present level of Taliban terrorism in Pakistan has to do with Pakistan’s stop supporting their terrorism, and it has nothing to do with American invasion.

Imran is completely wrong in determining the root cause of Taliban terrorism.
