Al-Qaeda Recruiting Disaffected Taliban
[ToloNews] Local officials in the eastern province of Kunur province said on Thursday that al-Qaeda, with the support of Pakistain, has begun recruiting Taliban
...Arabic for students...
fighters who disagree with the recently signed US-Taliban deal.

Abdul Sattar Mirzakwal, governor of Kunur province, said: "Based on our information, Pakistain intelligence and al-Qaeda have begun efforts to attract Taliban fighters and commanders," said Mirzakwal.

Kunur provincial council members said that besides al-Qaeda, many other terrorist organizations are also active in some parts of the province.

"It's very clear that those Taliban fighters and their families who live in areas where the peace is not maintained will seek allegiance to other krazed killer groups such as Al Qaeda, ISIS or Lashkar-e-Taiba
...the Army of the Pure, an Ahl-e-Hadith terror organization founded by Hafiz Saeed. LeT masquerades behind the Jamaat-ud-Dawa facade within Pakistain and periodically blows things up and kills people in India. Despite the fact that it is banned, always an interesting concept in Pakistain, the organization remains an blatant tool and perhaps an arm of the ISI...
(Pakistain-based krazed killer group)," said Wilayat Mashwani, the head of Kunar provincial council.

"It is possible that al-Qaeda, which had relationships with some Taliban groups earlier, will develop their relationships again," said, Malek Sher Zameen, a member of Kunur's provincial council.

Residents of Kunur province said that ISIS is also a threat, and many people have left their homes because of Taliban-ISIS fighting.

"We want security and schools. We do not want those groups," said Haidar Khan, a resident of Chawki district of Kunur.

"I have cut my relationships with ISIS. We are tired of the war and we have joined the grinding of the peace processor," said Shah Gull, a surrendered ISIS commander.

The residents are optimistic about the US-Taliban deal that was signed on February 29 in Doha, Qatar
...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi...
, and say that it will bring lasting peace to Afghanistan.

Local officials, however, said that the Taliban will fight terrorist organizations such Al Qaeda and ISIS if the peace deal between the US and the Taliban is implemented successfully. # id) ?>
