Category Image Media Bias: Did you know of Pakistan's surrender to Al Qaeda?


Bill Roggio reports that Pakistan has surrendered to Al Qaeda in its province of North Waziristan. The terms of the surrender include:

- The Pakistani Army is abandoning its garrisons in North and South Waziristan.
- The Pakistani Military will not operate in North Waziristan, nor will it monitor actions the region.
- Pakistan will turn over weapons and other equipment seized during Pakistani Army operations.
- The Taliban and al-Qaeda have set up a Mujahideen Shura (or council) to administer the agency.
- The truce refers to the region as “The Islamic Emirate of Waziristan.”
- An unknown quantity of money was transferred from Pakistani government coffers to the Taliban. The Pakistani government has essentially paid a tribute or ransom to end the fighting.
- “Foreigners” (a euphemism for al-Qaeda and other foreign jihadis) are allowed to remain in the region.
- Over 130 mid-level al-Qaeda commanders and foot soldiers were released from Pakistani custody.
- The Taliban is required to refrain from violence in Pakistan only; the agreement does not stipulate refraining from violence in Afghanistan.

They also have agreed to allow Osama bin Laden to remain free.

How come the main stream media aren't reporting this?

There is nothing about the main stream media that we can trust anymore. Here is a significant loss by one of our erstwhile allies, yet it is treated as obscure, unimportant news. Katie Couric is talking about Tom Cruise's baby.

This is horrifying. How did the world learn anything before the internet?

Read Bill's entire article. It's worse than you think.
