It wouldn’t be surprising if the Pakistani government were discovered to have been involved. Pakistan is no ally of the United States, but is allied with the global jihad force, and should be treated accordingly.
“Explosives Used in Hotel Attack Traced Back To Pakistan: NDS,” TOLO News, January 23, 2018:
National Directorate of Security (NDS) on Tuesday announced that initial investigations show that the explosives used by Taliban insurgents in the attack on the Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul on Saturday came from Pakistan.
The NDS also recovered the vehicle that attackers used to enter the hotel compound.
“The explosive materials seized in the vehicle shows that the material is made in Pakistan,” said the NDS in a press release.
According to the NDS statement, the explosive chemical used by the insurgents was produced by a company in Islamabad called Biafo Industries Limited.
According to Biafo’s website, the company is a modern state of the art explosive manufacturing company. It states it is highly automated and can produce more than 2,500 metric tons of explosives per shift annually.

So, what’s new ?
We always knew that the Taliban head office is based in Pakistan and funded lucratively by the Pakistani Government from the USA’s taxpayers money labelled “Aid”
Older Canadian says
Yes and Trump is the only western leader who knows this and has cut their “aid” in spite of world wide criticism.

Taliban people ARE PAKISTANIS——they got cousins and uncles and aunts in
Pakistan——and money and stuff from their relatives. I do not believe that they
need stuff DIRECTLY from the Pakistani government
samdav7 says
Talibans are Afghans not Pakistans, but they hide in Pakistan and launch all their jihadi assaults from Pakistan, you can assume whatever makes you smile, but we all know the real deal !

The Pak Army intelligence is working with the Taliban.

Pakistan, the Land of the Pure … pure, hot, steaming piles of TAQIYYA.
A Pakistani ex-patriot living in the West returned to do business in Pakistan. When he returned, he demurred, ‘The bigger the beard, the bigger the LIAR.’
Prabh says
piece of pakistanian faeces is cleverly defaming Sikhi and Sikhs.
Jack Holan says
They shoud remember what happened to the “Asprin” Factory in the heart of Khartoum Sudan. Oh I forgot many of the Jihadists can’t remember the total destruction of that explosives factory; they weren’t even born yet!

After Iraq and Syria the most fertile soil for the Caliphate’s murderers is now Afghanistan-Pakistan.

“explosives used by Taliban insurgents in the attack on the Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul”
There was an article in the VOA website, about this “Intercontinental Hotel”, and the attack there, and everyone ought to read it. And then read what I wrote, about how a lot of it, doesn’t make sense.
4 Americans Among Dead in Afghanistan Hotel Attack; 1 Identified
https://www.voanews.com/a/americans-killed-afghanistan-hotel-attack/4224191.html
How many security forces, in this “important sounding name hotel” did they have protecting these….”important people”, that died there?? Why did these, so called, “important people” pick a war torn, “continually fighting country”, to stay in a hotel there? And in KABUL, where so many headlines of attacks come from?
Do they laugh in the face of death, or like gambling….with their lives??
“Glenn Selig was in Kabul on business related to his Florida public relations firm”
Why in the world did he pick Afghanistan for his “BUSINESS”, as a FLORIDA public relations firm?
Is Florida trying to make some Public Relations with Afghanistan?? It doesn’t make sense! Was he THAT important, that he had to be mentioned, AND the supposed “job” that he had?
“A spokesman for Rick Gates, the former Trump campaign official indicted in the Russia investigation, was killed during the bombing and siege of the hotel, which catered to foreigners.”
It seems kind of fishy and convenient that a “spokesman for Rick Gates, the former Trump campaign official indicted in the Russia investigation,” was killed, when there’s still, so many investigations, are still ongoing….
Was this a staged event where some innocent people just got in the way, of a high profile person, being takin out of the picture? Noo, that would be a “conspiracy theory”! But what was HE doing in Kubal, Afghanistan??
Also, Intercontinental Hotel has been attacked before! In the summer BEFORE 2012 (it mentions):
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/18-people-killed-in-afghanistan-hotel-seige/
This was said (in that article),about the Intercontinental Hotel:
“The hotel (NOT Intercontinental Hotel, but a different one close by), was a soft target compared with the attacks insurgents have launched inside the city in recent years, including taking over construction sites and firing down on embassies and storming the tightly secured Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul last summer.”
Notice it said “the tightly secured” Intercontinental Hotel!? But they attacked it?? Anyway? Where were all the American troops, to keep these MANY Americans safe? They failed! Miserably! Tightly secured, yeah..right!
Trump is sending MORE troops over to Afghanistan. When will it end?
Up to 1,000 more U.S. troops could be headed to Afghanistan this spring

The Soviets were smart and gave up, and left Afghanistan after 10 years. We’ve been there 16 years, and have nothing, but MANY dead soldiers and MANY dead civilians, for it!!
