Re: Pakistani Taleban: Run by foreign agencies
Well, one reason we know off and everyone understands to be true, the facts that certain groups have supported certain other groups (read terrorist groups) is because they were caught in the act. Grand conspiracies are generally very difficult if not impossible to keep secret.
If the US were supporting the TTP, they would have been caught red handed. The reason the Pak Army and Pak govt arent making an issue of it, is because they know the facts dont support this conspiracy.
In the case of the TTP, the conspiracy seems to convoluted and and so contradictory, that to believe it would mean making all sorts of assumptions based on very flimsy evidence. And as a general rule, when you have to bend over backwards to make sense of everything, and make it all fit together in whatever haphazard way you can, then its probably not true.
You proved it yourself with all those “maybe this an maybe that” questioning. When you have to pepper your statements with endless maybe’s, your probably saying you dont have any information and its all conjecture.
The conjecture is limited to the motivates behind the support. It could be one or all or more reasons. Only the agencies can decide what the motivating factors will be. There is no conjecture that TTP is sponsored by foreign agencies.
