21 Nov. 2009 Karachi, Pakistan

Due to the fear of being targeted by US drone, Pakistan’s ISI helped Taliban supremo Mullah Omar to fly from the border town, Quetta to the mega port city, Karachi. The officials of US intelligence  said that the Afghan Taliban’s one eyed leader recently found the refuge of potential US attacks in the city of Karachi with the assistance from ISI.

Mullah Omar came to Karachi last month after the Ramadan ended. There he inaugurated a new senior leadership council. The development reinforces believes that the ISI helped to create the Taliban in 1990s for the expansion of Pakistani influence in Afghanistan and  is working against US interests as Barack Obama administration is prepared to send US troops to fight.

Bruce Riedel, analyst on al- Qaeda and Taliban and a CIA veteran has confirmed that Mullah Omar was recently spotted in Karachi. The sources claim that the ISI decided moving Mullah Omar further from the battlefield for his safety from US drone attacks. Riedel also said that there have been some suicide bombings in Karachi, that he attributed to al- Qaeda and the Taliban not wishing to foul the own nest.
