International plot against ISI
By SAJJAD SHAUKAT August 6, 2008 Since the issuance of a notification on July 26 last month by some officials to bring our ISI under the control of the interior ministry and its reversal in no time in wake of the recent trip of Pakistan’s PM Gilani to the US shows that an international plot against the superior agency has reached climax.
Meanwhile on July 31 and August 1, The New York Times disclosed in a series of allegations quoting the US officials that CIA Deputy Director Stephen Kappes visited Pakistan in last July and confronted Pakistani officials with evidence of ties between ISI and the militants in the tribal areas - aiding in bombing of Indian embassy in Kabul on July 7. The Times further revealed that Bush on July 28 also “confronted with Prime Minister Gilani about the divided loyalties of ISI.” Next day, Washington Times also repeated these allegations.
Nevertheless, in the US, PM Gilani rejected these accusations as “unbelievable” in relation to any links between Pakistan’s ISI and the militants.
The fact of the matter is that US-led India, Afghanistan and Israel have intensified their covert strategic designs by manipulating Pakistan’s multi-faceted crises which they have themselves created through their secret agencies CIA, RAW, Khad and Mossad. By taking new shifts in their propaganda campaign, they are acting upon anti-Pakistan agenda, tarnishing the image of ISI which is thwarting their schemes against our country. In the recent past, a report of the US so-called think-tanks had also disclosed without any evidence that Pakistan’s superior spy agency is supporting Taliban militancy in Afghanistan.
