Not a friend, not an ally, any more than Turkey is.
“Pakistan’s ISI involved in Ghazni attack: NDS,” Pajhwok Afghan News, August 18, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
KABUL (Pajhwok): Evidence of Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) involvement in Ghazni fighting would be shared with Pakistan soon, government officials say.
A week back, Taliban militants stormed Ghazni City from several directions and captured parts of it. In the five-day fighting, hundreds of people were killed and wounded.
The insurgents also set ablaze many markets, shops, antennas, transmitters of National Radio and Television and private radio stations, as well as media offices.
On Friday, the president visited the city and attended a meeting on the security situation. He also announced an amount of $20 million would be set aside for the reconstruction of the city.
Ghani reminded Pakistan Army Chief Gen. Qamar Javed Bajwa: “You have singed a significant document with us. You have assured me in several phone calls that everything will become normal after elections Pakistan. I want answers how Pakistani fighters penetrated Ghazni.”
With regard to the killing of Pakistanis fighting alongside the Taliban in Ghazni City, he told the neighbouring country’s new Prime Minister Imran Khan: “You have received coffins. You being a Pakhtun should probe the matter and give me a reply.”
On the other hand, the National Directorate of Security (NDS) accused Pakistan’s ISI of plotting the Ghazni attack for two weeks to sabotage a possible ceasefire this week.
A source in NDS said they had obtained documents of ISI involvement in the Ghazni fighting. The ISI had tasked Lashkar-i-Taiba to execute the attack and group sent militants from Peshawar and Quetta and some from Punjab. The insurgents had been trained to fight in Ghazni, the source alleged.
Some of the wounded fighters had been shifted to hospitals in Waziristan and Quetta through Paktia and Khost provinces, claimed the intelligence official, who did not want to be named.
The militants had been divided into four groups. The first outfit named Zubir Bin Al-Alum had 120 fighters from Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Zubair (not a real name) from Gjranwala city led the group.
The second group Khalid Bin Walid, with 90 fighters of Lashkar-i-Taiba, was headed by Khalid Ahmad (not a real name). The third outfit called Al-Mansoor had 120 fighters from the Haqqani Network, Paktia, Paktika, Ghazni, Zabul and southern Waziristan.
According to the source, the militants planned to overrun the entire province….

PM Imran Khan is nothing more than a puppet of Paki Army.
It clearly shows that ISI is Paky Army planning to sabotage Afghanistan progress to peace.
As usual Paky will deny any wrong doing.

A few years ago, we were told that beard-wearing, jihadist officers in ISI were given early retirement, but it seems that not all were sent to pasture.
It’s time for President Trump to say to the Pak government, ‘ARE YOU FELLOWS GOING TO GET SERIOUS ABOUT TERRORISM? OR DO WE (Americans) HAVE TO CUT YOUR PAYMENTS.’
I’m not even sure why Western countries are subsidizing Turkey and Pakistan when they are such huge violators of human rights.
Violation of human rights is part and parcel of discriminatory Sharia law and Muslims act AS IF Sharia law were the law of the land and so do their police.

Time to cut our ties…with any Muslims countryl that ever produced a terrorist
Pete says
Muslims fighting and killing fellow muslims.
?? ?
Just remember to blame the americans or jews
Baucent says
Afghanistan meddling by Pakistan is really a proxy war they are fighting with rival India.
infidel says
Pakistan is the biggest of all Islamic pest countries out there, It is HIGH TIME its de-fanged and its nuclear stockpiles removed by force, the same nuclear stockpiles it will NOT AT THE LEAST HESITATE to use against the West if it gets even one hundreth of a chance to do it and get away,
ibrahim itace muhammed says
Pete, that ideology of Takfir from wahhabism was promoted by evil United States to divide and subjugate muslims as you well know when evil United States used Alqaeda to fight Soviet Union. such evil terrorist were also used by evil United States during the so-called Arab spring, which gave rise to more deadly and destabilising Zionist Isis.So,evil United States must take all the responsibilities for promoting to sustain evils it’s hegemonic agenda.
SemiDave says
What utter nonsense! Sunni (wahhabists sunni sect) and Shiite sects have been fighting and killing each othe ever since Muhammad was put down in 632 AD.
We know your history! Your people bragged about it for centuries!
Now you wish to deny it so as to put the blame on others as all good little Islamist apologists do! Take responsibility for your “religion”! Stop being cowards, you’ll need a lot more points to curry Allah’s favour.
James Lincoln says
Why are you so in love with the word “evil” ???
At least try to expand your vocabulary and mix it up a little bit.
Suggestions: wicked, bad, immoral, sinful, file, corrupt, depraved, etc., etc.
J D S says
Ibrahim…the only evilness is in Islam….
.one question…how long has Islam been at continual war….not only with non Muslims but with themselves….???? That proves the evilness within Islam…No nation wars continually unless Satan is amongst them therefore with Satan one can produce nothing but evil so stop saying the evil U.S. that’s like the pot calling the kettle black. Stop and look at Islam’s evil history and find Jesus before that awful Lake of Fire is staring you in the face.
Not to worry you won’t be alone …all knees will bend to Jesus in the end times.

Paky Gen. Bajwa denied the involvement of their ISI or army.
However, it is good that Muslims are killing Muslims,
Leaders of the Western World should just wait and watch their fight without making
any comment, suggestion or advice.
It is for sure Afghanis and Pakys know what they are doing and why they are doing.
Keep it Pakys and Afghanis.

??? This should be a surprise to no one. ‘Rebel’ elements of that organization helped bin Laden with the planning of 9/11. When confronted with that info a week later, they were told that if they did not help with the Afghan invasion, then they would be ‘bombed back into the Stone Age’. Given that they knew the number of nuclear subs, off the coast of Pakistan had been increased to SEVEN, they took that threat very seriously. That did not stop them from providing him with a home in the Northern Territories. The hero Pakistani doctor who helped confirm bin Laden’s whereabouts is still in a Pakistan jail, based on phony charges. I would not waste a single second talking to these stupid F**KERS. Either begin bombing them, or don’t…. see how uncomplicated that is?
