(NSI News Source Info) ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN - March 28, 2009: Obama’s decision to send 17,000 reinforcement troops in Afghanistan has only strengthened resolution of Taliban to hold ground and fight. In fact Pakistan and Afghan Taliban have buried their differences, closed ranks and agreed to unify in their war against US. Supporters of Pakistani religious party Jamiat-Ulema-i-Islam rally, protesting against U.S. policy of expanding strikes on Pakistani territory, in Pakistani border town of Chaman along Afghanistan, Friday, March 27, 2009. They chanted slogans in favor of Taliban and their leader Mullah Omar. Taliban fighters across borders are preparing to greet influx of American soldiers with bombs and suicide attacks. Taliban leaders have revealed in this in their recent interviews. Pakistan Taliban which has been engaging Pakistan military and asserting their ground in Pakistan has been asked to shift focus towards Afghanistan. This new strategic alliance is a worrying factor for both NATO forces and Pakistan. The conflict is going to worsen and spread in to Pakistan as well. American intelligences forces also claim that Pakistan military agency has been offering all help to Taliban insurgents hoping to shape new government in Afghanistan once NATO forces leave. The two sides are preparing for a showdown. Young commanders are being trained. Another battle will intensify. This time it’ll be bloodier direct confrontation between NATO troops and unified Taliban. And casualties will be high too. Wars can only bring more reasons for war.
