Taliban rule out Osama's hand

ISLAMABAD, Sept.11: Afghan embassador to Islamabad Mulla Abdul Salam Zaeef condemned terrorist attacks on Pentagon and the World Trade Center, and called for a thorough investigation into the attacks.
Soon after the attacks in Washington and New York on Tuesday, Mulla Zaeef called a press conference at his residence, and denied Osama bin Laden's involvement in the attacks.

He clarified that Taliban would not allow Osama to use Afghan soil for carrying out such activities.
"We have taken over all means of communication from him (Osama) and he has no contact with the outside world",
the embassador said.

Mulla Zaeef called for a thorough inquiry into the attacks before any punitive action.

Asked weather they feared any US attack on Afghanistan, the embassador said: "We do not expect any attack without completition of investigation."
If any attack was carried out by the US t would be very unfortunate, he remarked.

Reuters add:" What happened in the United States was not a job of ordinary people . It could have been the work of governments. Osama bin Laden cannot do this, neither us," Taliban spokesman Abdul Hai Mutmaen told Reuters from Kandahar.

"We are not supporting terrorism. Osama does not have the capability. We condemn this", Mulla Mutmaen said.

"This could have been the act of either internal enemies of the United States or its major rivals. Osama cannot do this work."
Afghan Foreign Minister Wakil Ahmed Muttawakil told a hastily convened news conference in Kabul that he condemned the attacks and there could be no reason for the US reprisal attacks on Afghanistan. He said there had been no contact with the United States.

"Our policy was very clear, even from the beginning. We have criticized and will now criticize terrorism in all its forms," he said.


So the Taliban were the first demanding an investigation.

Didn't the Taliban say that if America produces the evidence, they would hand over OBL??

I also remember someone else showing me evidence that America wasn't interested, as they had already planned to invade.

Haven't you watched Loose Change FInal Cut ?! :D

They were willing to hand him over even before the attacks:

Taliban told US it would give up Osama

Not only that, they also warned of attacks.

Ever heared of the 'Getaway'?:

If not, then this, this and this might be of interest.

Ever heared of the 'Jihad schoolbook scandal'?

If not, then this, this, this and this might be of interest.

And let's not forget that the Taliban were not the first and only ones offering to hand out Bin Laden:

Others did as well. (Note these are three seperated links)

Do you know where the first international arrest warrant on Osama Bin Laden has been created?

Yes, in Lybia, where Muammar al-Gaddafi, alleged mastermind of the Pan Am 103 bombing in Lockerbie, is president.

Do you know why the warrant was made?

Because Osama was in suspicion to have killed two German agents from the intelligence BND (Bundesnachrichtendienst).

Crazy world....

Hi NK-44,

Not had a chance to watch LC:FC yet. The last time I tried to watch it, I got side tracked cause the missus wanted some attention or I had some jobs to do. I can't remember.

I will get around to watching it very soon though.

I thought that this was the case regarding the offers to hand over OBL and if I remember correctly, I seem to believe that "The Power Of Nightmares" suggested this too. Although I could be mixing it up with something else I've seen.

Thanks for the links, I've been reading through them and you seem to be very clued up on all the intelligence. I've read about some of Americas foreign policies in the past and present, so none of this shocks me at all.

It's a crazy world out there!! So its a good job we have guys like you around to educate people who do not know this stuff.

Thanks again.

Stundie
