 You have not commented on this Tami - and I will be happy to reply to your other questions when I finish work

 

 

Quoting TheAenigma

 

 

 Here are two to keep you going - I am happy to find more if you wish

 

"Dr Mahammed Anif told Newsnight that the UK and US had wanted an "excuse" to invade Afghanistan, and foreign armies would be thrown out of the country.

Shadow defence secretary Liam Fox said the interview was "obscene" and accused the BBC of broadcasting propaganda on behalf of Britain´s enemies.

The BBC said it was "entirely legitimate" to air the Taleban´s views. "

"Yes. Our one demand of the British is for them to leave our land. We want this message to be conveyed to Tony Blair -- it´s easy to occupy Afghanistan, but it´s difficult to remain here for long. God willing, like the Russians before them, the Americans and British will fail." And with that he got to his feet, clicked his fingers and his men got ready to go.

After that initial meeting, things between me and the Taliban became a lot easier. Every time I met a Taliban commander, he would pass on my name to other Taliban commanders, who would then contact me to arrange another interview. I was soon fielding calls every day, and quickly discovered that my name had reached Taliban commanders in the town of Quetta across the border in Pakistan."

Quoting tamikidakika

 

 

"Their leader is in prison and being poisoned, they claim, by his jailers. Their enemies are in uproar, almost unanimously baying for their blood. And Nato´s second largest war machine is just two valleys away, preparing for their annihilation. Yet as they sat down to a dinner of grilled chicken and salad yesterday, in a flat-roofed stone shack clinging to the side of a mountain, leaders of the Kurdistan Workers´ party (PKK) remained surprisingly buoyant.Here were some of Turkey´s most wanted, dressed in their trademark baggy khaki fatigues, each wearing a small lapel badge bearing the portrait of Abdullah Ocalan, their imprisoned leader. Their mountain redoubts would hold firm, the guerilla leaders insisted. The world would see they were not terrorists, but freedom fighters. Dialogue and peace would eventually solve the Kurdish question in Turkey. Their struggle for Kurdish rights was not about to be vaporised by a barrage of Turkish, or US, rockets."

 Tami, please read the part in bold again.  There are no quotation marks, but it is clear he is talking about THEIR views, not the authors.

 I suggest you contact the author via TheGuardian - he will confirm what I have tried to explain to you.

 

Still no comment that I proved you wrong with my Taliban articles?
