Re: What is Imran’s stance on Pak’s creating and supporting Taliban against Afghan NA
They are different organizations. The claim specifically has been made about Taleban and drone strikes. Back it up with evidence pertaining to those two things.
What I meant by data was you atleast usually know who the bombers are. You are telling me its impossible to find after hundreds of suicide bombings, any suicide bombers who were motivated by drone attacks?
There have been reports of Taleban forcing parents to give up children. There have been reports of Taleban brainwashing children in madressas. This is not to mention the true believers, people who do want sharia in Pakistan, people who do want to kill shias and ahmedies. People who do feel they are on a holy war against America. What evidence do you have of the revenge motive making up a sizable proportion of the suicide bombers as opposed to these factors?
Why do you feel Imran Khan pushes the angry young grieving men blowing themselves up in desperation angle? Is it because that message is much more saleable? Do you feel that when he paints this as about angry young misunderstood men after say the ahmedies have been killed in Lahore, he is performing an act of omission in neglecting to talk instead about their attitude towards minorities, their disgusting form of Islam, their reprehensible treatment of women..
Well thats how you see suicide bombing to work right? Someone sees their family destroyed violently, straps on a bomb and goes kills those whom he sees as the killers. Therefore, those who were victims of Taliban, having the same psyche, would go and blow themselves up in areas they see as taliban strongholds.
Im just saying if this is a legitimate cause and effect, it should hold in contexts outside of drone strike.
Hah! Come on. What is the solution for dealing with the violent Taleban. You proposed a solution, whats the answer. I always hear this from people who are swayed by IK, that we should talk to the non-violent taleban. Well if they are non-violent, theres no point in talking to them because its the violence we are concerned with. As for the violent ones, they have nothing to answer.
