ISI creation of British Major General Cawthorne

[ScimitarXEdge]

After independence in 1947, two new intelligence agencies were created in Pakistan: the Intelligence Bureau (IB) and the Military Intelligence (MI). However, the weak performance of the MI in sharing intelligence between the Army, Navy and Air Force during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1947 led to the creation of the Directorate for Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) in 1948.[1] The ISI was structured to be manned by officers from the three main military services, and to specialize in the collection, analysis and assessment of external intelligence, either military or non-military.[1] The ISI was the brainchild of Australian-born British Army officer, Major General R. Cawthome, then Deputy Chief of Staff in the Pakistan Army.[1][2] Initially, the ISI had no role in the collection of internal intelligence, with the exception of the North-West Frontier Province and Azad Kashmir.

When the whole army controlled state itself was the bye product of British political wisdom then what is wrong if one of its institution was founded by them too. By the way which institution in Pakistan is indigenously formed except terrorism?

Every state is run by their agencies... The govts are just puppet if you see in real.
Every country's agencies and army make the policies, spend more earnings of the country than all other institutions as a whole. They make more mess. They create a mind set through media and other sources. they use democracy for their vested interests. Though there is not a single country which is enjoying democracy but all have a dictatorship in a different form.

Hamaas was a creatioin of Israel...The Mujahideen factions like Haqqani, Gulbuddin, Mullah Omar, Jumath-i-Islami Pakistan etc. were created by ISI and CIA with aid from Saudi petro-money during the Afghan War. Most of the TTP members have been trained and pampered by ISI.

let's stay on topic


Don't worry Toramana I will reopen the other thread you were running away from a few weeks ago so you'll enjoy burdensome weight of having to provide concrete NON-conspiracy theorist evidence for your claims.

You can not paint all the groups with the same brush. There are different groups with different ideologies. Some are self created, some are the result of circumstances, some are created by agencies and they all have different goals. for the time being they are one but in the long run their goals are different.
