Pakistan Taliban and Afghan Taliban Are Not the Same
Posted by Michael Cohen

Over at TNR, Jon Chait, takes issue with the characterization of the Afghan Taliban and the Pakistan Taliban as separate organizations:

This morning’s New York Times piece about the alleged Times Square bomber who may have connections to the Taliban in Pakistan included this tidbit:

The Pakistani Taliban is a different organization from the Taliban groups that the United States is battling in Afghanistan.

However, at TNR we’ve run several pieces that argue differently. Back in February, David Rohde, the NYT reporter that was held in captivity for seven months by the Taliban, explained first-hand his experience with the “Afghan Taliban” and “Pakistani Taliban,” while also reviewing two books that affirm his view. . . And last October Peter Bergen pointed out that the Pakistani Taliban and the Afghan Taliban are "quite a bit more interwoven than is commonly thought."

Kind of sort of, but not really. First of all, the Berman piece doesn't really focus on the Pakistan Taliban/AfghanTaliban relationship - devoting attention to the supposed links between the Afghan Taliban and al Qaeda  (and if Vahid Brown is to be believed, overstating the nature of that relationship).

The Rohde piece makes a more detailed argument, but I'll let readers decide if it's a compelling one. Certainly the Pakistan/Afghan experts I have spoken to seem more nuanced in their appraisal. But to some extent, this is neither here nor there, because even if there is an interwoven relationship between some elements of the Afghan Taliban and Pakistan Taliban it may matter a lot less than we think it does.

For example, as Rodhe points out, "For years, Pakistani officials have differentiated between Afghan and Pakistani Taliban groups, insisting that Afghan militants pose no threat to the Pakistani state. They also say that they hope to use the Afghan Taliban as proxies to prevent attempts by India to gain influence in Afghanistan after the Obama administration begins withdrawing American troops from Afghanistan in 2011."

And while Rodhe notes that the Pakistani government's differentiation is false the fact that it exists should tell us something about the capabilities of the two organizations - and Pakistani attitudes toward each. David Rodhe may believe that the Afghan Taliban represent a threat to the Pakistani state; but the fact that the Pakistanis don't share this view . . . well that should tell us something. Maybe they know something we don't or maybe they view the Afghan Taliban as a proxy group that furthers their interests in Afghanistan. After all that has been the case for well more than a decade.

In addition, one doesn't get the sense that even in the wake of Mullah Baradar's arrest by Pakistan that the Afghan Taliban are rejecting the support of the Pakistani military. They might be more wary, but they certainly haven't declared war against Pakistan - and yet at the same time the Pakistani government and the US - has basically declared war on the Pakistani Taliban. That sure doesn't make the bonds between the two Taliban groups seem that terribly strong. One might even conclude that this is perhaps a marriage of convenience, not ethnic or tribal solidarity.

Part of the reason is clear; the Pakistan Taliban (TTP) and the Afghan Taliban have very different sets of political grievances. The TTP came into existence in response to Pakistani army intervention in Pakistan's tribal areas; in other words, their beef is with Pakistan. For the Afghan Taliban, the Pakistani government is their protector - and their beef is with the Karzai government and the NATO forces in Afghanistan.

Finally, when it comes to the attitudes of both groups toward the US, I think we all know where the Afghan Taliban stand - they're not fans. But the evolution of the Pakistan Taliban is more interesting. If it is correct that the TTP is behind this attempted attack in Times Square one could probably surmise that it's not necessarily out of solidarity with the Afghan Taliban . . . but frustration that the US military has basically declared war against their group and killing its leader Baitullah Mehsud via repeated drone strikes.  So while the two groups may now share a common enemy - they may not necessarily share a common set of aspirations or political interests.

There is for a variety of reasons a tendency to see all terrorist groups and "enemies of the United States" as one and the same or fundamentally irrational in nature (see: George W. Bush public statements Sept 2001 to January 2002). And there are all sorts of political reasons why US policymakers like to make these sorts of linkages (see: Iraq War 2003- present and Barack Obama, Speech to US Military Academy, December 1, 2010).

But terrorist organizations are adaptable and even at times realistic in appraising their own interests. And so even if the Afghan Taliban and Pakistan Taliban may, at this moment, have similar interests and share operational goals (and frankly none of the examples cited by Chait persuasively makes that argument), it doesn't mean that relationship is anything more than temporary.

Now granted these linkages shouldn't be ignored completely, but it would be especially unwise to assume that they are iron-clad, particularly in the context of possible future political negotiations with the Afghan Taliban.

Great piece Mike. But I think you mean "Bergen piece" not "Berman piece."

'And last October Peter Bergen pointed out that the Pakistani Taliban and the Afghan Taliban are "quite a bit more interwoven than is commonly thought."'


There should be a "Bergen Rule" for this one-trick pony. Yeah, we got it that you interviewed Osama bin Laden more than a decade ago.


That's true, The Pakistani Taliban is totally different organization from the Taliban. But that is also true that In Pakistan also Terrorism are growing day by day. Very nice article.

Yes, The Pakistani Taliban is different organization from the Taliban.

There should be a "Bergen Rule" for this one-trick pony. Yeah, we got it that you interviewed Osama bin Laden more than a decade ago.

Of course, Pakistan Taliban and Afghan Taliban Are Not the Same. This is very nice article but I think I can say that mission of Pakistan Taliban and Afghan Taliban is same. I always against of every Pakistan's people. I like to read this article and I'll share with my friends.

The city of Peshawar, in the planning. Taliban closes in, and regularly attacked convoys of police, diplomats kidnapping and shoot aliens. The fighting in the troubled region has forced thousands of families in their homes and many have sought refuge in Peshawar.

This is priceless information.

The word Taliban means "students" - and let us stop kidding ourselves that they are "students" of the same supremacist ideology that rejects pluralism and rejects unqualified, universal human rights. The "tactician" view towards the Taliban ignores this and ignores their ideological basis, seeking only to view the Taliban through the lens of local grievances. This is very convenient for tacticians because it does not require any real commitment towards a strategy to challenge the ideological basis for the Taliban.

Imagine if that is how America ignored white supremacy in the U.S. in the 1960s - saying how all the branches of the Ku Klux Klan were different - rather than challenging their shared ideology, and even worse, like Karzai plans to offer the Taliban - trying to solve the issue by offering supremacists roles in government, police, and military.

In fact, the Taliban has for many years had an international agenda, which I have been documenting references sources at Taliban International Objectives

It was a big week for LeBron James; he grabbed himself a second MVP trophy and the Cavs moved on to the next round of the Playoffs. We saw a bunch of LeBrons, like the MVP Air Max LeBron VII, an unreleased LeBron VII P.S., and another sneak peek at his eighth shoe. LeBron’s upcoming shoe wasn’t the only preview we got, as a sample of the Jordan Melo M7 made its way to the public. Speaking of being in public, even more notable celebrities like Justin Timberlake, Mick Jagger, C.C. Sabathia, and Nelly came out with some heat of their own, while the Sneaker Friends 2010 Event in the ATL really burned a hole in our eyes. We also received a ton of glimpses at upcoming releases, from more Air Attacks, 90’s Retros, and classic silhouettes for Fall 2010. We were also hit with a big-picture news story, as Nike took personal action against counterfeit sellers and later announced the plans for the company’s future during their 2015 Global ,welcome to http://www.wikishoes.com

Hello Pretty good post. I just tweet your blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your blog posts.

If I speak in the Cheap Authentic NFL Jerseys tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all Official NFL Jerseys knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my USA Jerseys Shop body to the flames,but have not love, I gain nothing.Love is patient, NFL Jerseys love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it NHL Jerseys keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always MLB Jerseys hopes, always perseveres.Love never NHL Hockey Jerseys fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in MLB Baseball Jerseys part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappea. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a NBA Basketball Jerseys man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.And now these three remain: faith, hope and NFL Football Jerseys love. But the greatest of these is love.

Then Eöl looked into the eyes of King Turgon, and he was not daunted, but stood long without word or movement while a still silence fell upon the hall; and Aredhel was afraid, knowing that he was perilous. Suddenly, swift as serpent, he seized a javelin that he held hid beneath his cloak and cast it at Maeglin, crying:
'The second choice I take and for my son also! You shall not hold what is mine!'
But Aredhel sprang before the dart, and it smote her in the shoulder; and Eöl was overborne by many and set in bonds, and led away, while others tended Aredhel. But Maeglin looking upon his father was silent.
It was appointed that Eöl should be brought on the next day to the King's judgement; and Aredhel and Idril moved Turgon to mercy. But in the evening Aredhel sickened, though the wound had seemed little, and she fell into the darkness, and in the night she died; for the point of the Javelin was poisoned, though none knew it until too late.
Therefore when Eöl was brought before Turgon he found no mercy; and they led him forth to the ugg boots clearanceCaragdûr, a precipice of black rock upon the north side of the hill of Gondolin, there to cast him down from the sheer walls of the city. And Maeglin stood by and said nothing; but at the last Eöl cried out: 'So you forsake your father and his kin, ill-gotten son! Here shall you fail of all your hopes, and here may you yet die the same death as I.'

Lying there, by Agust, watching the planes going over, listening for firing behind him, watching the road below where he knew he would see something but not what it would be, he still felt numb with the surprise that he had not been UGG Boots Clearance killed at the bridge. He had accepted being killed so completely that all of this now seemed unreal. Shake out of that, he said to himself. Get rid of that. There is UGG Boots Clearance much, much, much to be done today. But it would not leave him and he felt, consciously, all of this becoming like a dream.
You swallowed too UGGS Clearance much of that smoke," he told himself. But he knew it was not that. He could feel, solidly, how unreal it all was through the absolute reality and he looked down at the bridge and then back to the sentry lying on the road, to where Anselmo lay, to Fernando Ugg boots clearance against the bank and back up the smooth, brown road to the stalled truck and still it was unreal.
You better sell out your part of you quickly," he told himself. "You're like Ugg boots clearance one of those cocks in the pit where nobody has seen the wound given and it doesn't show and he is already going cold with it."
Nuts," he said to himself. "You are a little groggy is all, and you have a let-down after responsibility, is all. Take it easy."
Then Agust grabbed his arm and pointed and he looked across the gorge and saw Pablo.
They saw Pablo come running around the corner of the bend in the road. At the sheer rock Ugg boots clearance where the road went out of sight they saw him stop and lean against the rock and fire back up the road. Robert Jordan saw Pablo, short, heavy and stocky, his cap gone, leaning against the rock wall and firing the short cavalry automatic rifle and he could see the bright flicker of the cascading brass hulls as the sun caught them. They saw Pablo crouch and fire another burst. Then, without looking back, he came running, short, bowlegged, fast, his head bent down straight toward the bridge.

Maybe it won't happen the way either of you are envisioning at the moment. Just waiting to see what develops, what hatches, what emerges as you continue to peel away the layers. We know you can write.

I love this. The more pressure we put on ourselves, the less likely it is we'll actually write anything. It's one thing to decide to Write A Book by yourself, in private; it's another if an agent is part of the process...

I think it very important to have good characters--characters that actually swim in your head 24/7. Soon they begin to tell you what to write and take you places you never dreamed of

Then this spring I started blogging here, my first foray into writing, and it's getting easier as it goes. I don't find it hard, but I am not trying to be a writer, I am just writing what I see fit and not trying to sell anything. I tell people I will teach when I know something, speak when I have something to say, and write when I have a story to tell. Still waiting.

Look at you. You hit one out of the park with your post today.


In regard to novel writing vs. writing novels, on a dare -- a challenge from a friend and novelist in Cleveland -- I jumped into the NaNoWriMo Slam this month. Out of stubborn resolve to write to the finish line, I'm standing now at 37,000 empty words. But who cares? I'm still counting, thank you.

In the process of learning how excrutiatingly hard it is to write fiction, I landed here with my first post on Open Salon about a week ago. While I'm no closer to to writing the "novel of my dreams," maybe, just maybe, I'm a better blogger -- and a better reader, too.

So there you are... You can add me to your list of fans out here -- a former Ohioan, now a fellow Michiganer, I'm just down the road in Detroit.

Well. I think you are a fantastic writer, and yes, you do have an audience. I have found it is easier to write about my experiences, my politics and the things that piss me off. Sounds like a book title to me. Go for it.

I've recently been getting the stuffing kicked out of me as a series of agents reject my memoir. I was getting so down I was afraid to blog. Today I was riding in the car, concerned with something else...and a post just started writing itself.

Think of the big picture, but try to work in the rhythm you know for OS, if that's possible with what you want to do. Also, have you thought of finding a "writing partner"? I know someone who is doing this with her novel - they sit together and work on their respective projects. The idea is to be motivated and that by having another person in the room with you, you'll feel like it's time to get serious. Again, good luck! R.
