‘Blackwater/Xe behind Pakistan unrest’

Press TV – April 22, 2010

The former leader of Pakistan’s opposition party Jamaat-e-Islami has accused the US security firm Blackwater/Xe of being behind the unrest in the country.

Speaking to reporters in Peshawar, Qazi Hussain Ahmad said that the situation in the country would never improve if the government in Islamabad continued to be the frontline ally of Washington.

“The rulers have been fighting the US war in our own streets, which is fanning unrest,” he added.

On Wednesday, Jamaat-e-Islami chief Syed Munawar Hassan told Press TV that Pakistan’s alliance with the US was the main reason behind a surge in bomb attacks across the country.

“The notorious Blackwater agents are behind the bomb and suicide attacks in our country as the US wants to destabilize Pakistan… after invading neighboring Afghanistan,” he said.

The people of Pakistan are united against the US and are ready to force the government to end its alliance with Washington on the so-called war against terror, he added.

    Chapter 5 – “PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE” AGAINST THE DRA
    Appendix, Item 4

    Who is Using Chemical Weapons in Afghanistan?

    (Excerpts from a report on a press conference held for Afghan and foreign journalists at the DRA Ministry of Foreign Affairs on February 27, 1984)

    As has been announced at the press conference held on February 27, 1984, the DRA Armed Forces have seized two letters in the course of an operation carried out against the counter-revolutionary gangs. One of them was sent by the Jamiat-i-Islami central office, located in Peshawar (Pakistan), to a counter-revolutionary group conducting subversive operations inside Afghanistan.

    The other was sent by the so-called High Command of another counter-revolutionary organization, Hizbi-i-Islami, to a certain military committee (no address is given but the committee is apparently based in Pakistan).

    We consider it appropriate to make public the texts of the two letters.

    The first one reads as follows:

    “My brother Aziz,

    “Captain Faizullah is being sent with a caravan to hand over to you the following arms and ammunition:

    “1. 20 anti-tank missiles
    “2. 22 machine-guns
    “3. 5,500 rounds of machine-gun ammunition
    “4. 18 anti-personnel mines
    “5. 22 anti-tank mines
    “6. 40 mortar shells.

    “Confirm receipt of the above-mentioned arms and ammunition at the earliest opportunity. We shall deliver the remaining arms and ammunition to you in the nearest future.

    “Brother Aziz,

    “In your last letter you complain about the difficulties you have encountered. But you are back home together with your family whereas we live in a foreign land, among enemies. Our life here is extremely difficult. We are made to operate the direct supervision of U.S. advisers.

    “Some days ago the American advisers made up a list of the questions concerning the use of poisonous substances by the Russians against the Mujahiddin in Afghanistan and of recommended replies.

    “The above-mentioned poisonous chemical substances have been manufactured here for subsequent use in Afghanistan in order to convince the world public that it is the Russians who are using them.

    “You will understand, of course, that we are totally powerless here and do everything the American advisers tell us to do.

    “We must endure all hardships for the sake of our sacred goal.

    “With best wishes,

    (Signature)

    November 11, 1983”

    The second letter reads as follows:

    “Hizbi-i-Islami Afghanistan

    “December 2, 1983, c/o Military Committee,

    “By the grace of Allah we have safely received a caravan of arms and ammunition you sent to the Kabul Province High Command together with the questionnaire containing recommended replies to the questions listed therein.

    “We think that all means should be used against the enemy but it must be pointed out that here it is extremely difficult to get poisonous substances. Frankly speaking, they are not available at all. But we highly appreciate what our friends (the Americans–Ed.) are doing. Tell us in advance when the whole thing is due to begin, so we can pass the word around.

    “We would also like to get from you confirmation of receipt of the money we had previously sent. If it did not reach you we would undertake a most thorough investigation into what might have gone wrong.

    “With best wishes,

    “High Command of the Kabul Province

    (Seal, Signature)”

    These two letters provide convincing evidence which can hardly be refuted.

    A Bakhtar News Agency statement, made public at the press conference, says that the two letters are a clear indication that it is the United States which is behind an undeclared war against Afghanistan, while Afghan counter-revolutionary elements are at the beck and call of US advisers.

    They show that all attempts by CIA experts to prove that the DRA Armed Forces and the limited Soviet military contingent in Afghanistan are using poisonous substances in that country are futile.

    While the Reagan Administration is trying to resurrect the myth about the use of Agent Orange in Afghanistan and to deceive world public opinion, US imperialism has on several occasions employed chemical weapons against the Afghan people in violation of all existing international conventions. Below are some of the facts cited at the press conference.

    Three years ago, grenades containing CDS 517 poisonous substances were captured from counter-revolutionaries in Herat Province. At the beginning of last year US-made RKT 83-mm chemical shells and M-12 tear gas containers were captured from gangs operating in Ghazni Province. Two years ago the bandits put poisonous chemical substances, delivered from abroad, into a water tank at a girls’ school.
