Recently, Pakistan’s intelligence agency released a video wherein Nasrullah (Maulvi Mansoor) claimed to have orchestrated his activities from Afghan territory. I will refrain from deliberating on whether the individual is affiliated with the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) or not; however, it is evident to me that all his assertions are orchestrated by the military.
These statements are all part of a concerted effort by the Pakistani intelligence network to sow discord within the movement and, at the same time, demonstrate that the movement’s operatives are orchestrating their activities from Afghanistan.
Only individuals distanced from the realm of politics or devoid of political affiliations would be duped by such video content.
This is one conspiracy among the conspiracies that we have fully explained in previous articles and briefly mention here:
Indeed, the reality differs! The fact is that Pakistan, after the Taliban came to power, made great efforts to achieve its sinister goals, but the Taliban responded negatively to their demands. Pakistani officials tried even harder to satisfy the Taliban, but the light of their red lamp grew brighter.
Pakistani authorities have started making statements against the Taliban in international conferences, which did not yield any results because Pakistan has lost its political status on the international stage.
Subsequently, Pakistan instigated disruptions along the hypothetical Durand Line in an attempt to transfer ISIS operatives from Pakistan to Afghanistan, but these efforts proved futile.
Efforts were made to forcibly repatriate refugees with the aim of relocating ISIS members to Afghanistan among them. However, the incumbent administration recognized this ploy and thwarted the subversion in its infancy. (For further insights, please refer to our comprehensive article on the subject available on the website).
Furthermore, Pakistani intelligence agencies initiated endeavors to assimilate members of the resistance into ISIS and instigate them against the Taliban. Meetings for this purpose were convened in Turkey, Iran, and Tajikistan, followed by the invitation of senior resistance figures to Pakistan.
It should be noted that Pakistan has also started this effort to show the international community that the Pakistani Taliban movement attacks their forces from Afghanistan, but in my opinion, presenting such childish analyses will not benefit them.
Therefore, Pakistani officials endeavor to shift blame onto the Afghans for their own shortcomings.
