PTI Chief Imran Khan says War in Afghanistan is Jihad

Pakistan’s Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan on Wednesday said that terminating the ongoing war in Afghanistan is a Jihad — holy war.
His comments came While speaking during a press conference in Peshawar after paying a visit to inquire after the health of Malala Yousafzai who shot in head by Taliban militants.
He strongly condemned the attack on Malala Yousufzai and called it an un-Islamic act and vowed to take every possible steps in a bid to assist the family of Malala Yousufzai.
PTI chief Imran Khan also emphasized to launch a probe in order to investigate the motivations of various Taliban factions operating in the country.
He said that Pakistan was taken to war following a decision to carry out a military operation in Waziristan in 2004 and the Lal Masjid episode.
Quoted by The Express Tribune PTI Chief Imran Khan said, “In the guise of the Taliban, there are several criminal gangs who didn’t even spare PTI workers by demanding extortion money.”
The PTI chief said that “drone attacks are carried out with the consent of the government, and in reaction, Taliban attack civilians.”
Citing an ex-employee of the US Central Intelligence Agency, he said that unless the Pakistani government withdraws its support as a coalition partner on the ‘war on terror’ it will be unable to overcome the insurgency in the country.
“A military operation can be a small part of a larger solution but a conflict cannot be resolved through military operations alone,” the PTI chief said.

PESHAWAR -- Imran Khan, a senior Pakistani politician, has declared the fighting in neighboring Afghanistan a "Jihad," or Islamic holy war "against foreign occupation."

Khan made his comments while speaking to journalists in Peshawar late on October 10.

Khan is the head of Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaaf party (Movement for Justice).

A former cricket star, Khan led a rally last weekend to condemn U.S. drone strikes in the tribal areas.

Khan's movement has become prominent after senior leaders of other political parties and top members of the former military regime joined him over the past couple of years.

The Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaaf party has attracted large crowds and favorable ratings in some major Pakistani cities.

They are now calling him a terrorist because of this. They will try to spin it in whatever manner they can. Some well known journalists are now calling him a dangerous man simply because he is Anti-War. LOL LOL

Well, he commands a majority in the polls so it never really mattered what they said anyways-

Khan Sahib please stop justifying these barbarians and stop finding excuses to justify there acts of voilence against the inoccent country man. May be time has come for people like you and your patrons who has supported these so called jihadi look inward find and identify the real enemies. I am in no way or shape support drone attacks, however, I can not turn my eyes when I see these strategic assets killing civilians and military officials and attack our way of life. Khan sahib its time for you to let go of your mentors like gul hameed and Qazi sahib and look to the people who have suffered at hands of these barbarians.

How can Mr Khan say that Taliban are reaction to the drone strikes etc…
Blockquote

This is the most immature statement of a political, and goes against any human, ethical or even islamic standards. These wild beasts have killed so many innocent people and Mr Khan is saying these incidences are happening because of military operations/lal masjid etc. Lal masjid was the right decision of Musharraf government and military operations are the only way to implement writ of law over the loose wild beasts hovering around in the towns/villages of Pakistan in the northern areas. [B]These barbarians have no place on this earth regardless of the reason


NOW THERE IS THIS NEW TERM THEY USE FOR PASHTUNS - WILD BEASTS. I guess they got bored of using barbarians...these people who like to take US dollars to give NATO supplies....



this is from someones twitter

pakis showing their true colours.

The issue is we Pashtuns have to wake up one way or another, regardless of whether a person is religious or secular. This is the most important issue .

the reasons is there are Pro-War people who want to see the continued Pashtun bloodshed from all sides. They are opposed to peace in Pashtunistan.
