Why doesn’t the vast majority of peaceful Muslims rise up and put a stop to this?
“Pakistan mosques collecting donations for Afghan Taliban: Opposition Party,” ANI, June 10, 2021:
Pakistan opposition party Awami National Party (ANP) on Tuesday said that mosques were collecting donations for Afghan Taliban and asked the government to act swiftly to end the practice.
Speaking at condolence reference arranged at Bacha Khan Markaz to pay homage to Sadruddin Marwat, the party’s former provincial spokesman, ANP provincial president Aimal Wali Khan disclosed about the collection of donations, reported Dawn.
He said the people who were advocating for recognition of the Tehreek-i-Taliban Afghanistan could not be called as friends of Pakhtuns.
Aimal Wali claimed that though Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf and Jamaat-i-Islami were not allies in the government they were taking dictation from the same source, reported Dawn….

“Why doesn’t the vast majority of peaceful Muslims rise up and put a stop to this?”
Because islam has been, is now and will forever be by its own “final, perfect, complete and unchangeable” rules a criminal conspiracy pretending to be a religion advocating war, death, conquest, slavery and looting.
Face the simple truth. All who aid, abet, counsel, or act in furtherance of the crime are equally guilty, whether they pull the trigger or pay for the ammunition. They are all guilty: “The knowledge of one is the knowledge of all, The acts of one are the acts of all.” To be “peaceful” is to advocate reform or change which is considered apostasy punishable by death at the hands of any vigilante. Either the person making such a claim is suicidal, which is completely consistent with the teachings, or he is lying, which is also standard for 1400 years.

Maybe there rare two reasons why the imams of those mosques are collecting donations for the Taliban.
First, maybe those imams actually like the Taliban because they practice hard core non-watered Islam ,which includes much ruthless and oppressive misogyny.
Second . maybe those imams well understand that the Taliban are cruel and vicious as well as vindictive so the imams of Pakistan want to play it safe by collecting donations for them to keep on their good side for when they rise again to power in Afghanistan because they don’t want those Taliban tyrants , almost next store to be hostile towards then.

Pretty much spot on Walter.

So, someone has finally admitted what has been a public secret in Pakistan for decades.
And it’s not just money they are sending over the border.
The Taliban have been using Pakistan as a logistics base and R&R location for many years.
This is why Bin Laden was able to hide in plain sight just down the road from their version of West Point.
Nice to see that someone has actually come out and said it has to stop, but I do wonder what their life expectancy is like now?

Very funny. Of course, few things are more Islamic than the bloody Taliban.

No such thing as a passive muslim/islamic follower. A moderate muslim keeps his mouth shut and supports the islamic teachings and ideology thru silence and sending cash.
