This Mail is from september 2011 and it is about the CIA and the ISI (Pakistan military Intelligence Agency = Inter-Services Intelligence) in Pakistan and it is about the opressing power of the USA in that country. Stratfor Member comments on this Insight View are like: “I find it more interesting that the Agency has declared an internal intelligence war on ISI” and more on that below on the EMail: “Nobody is trusted.” furthermore they say the “CIA” is using “Moscow Rules.” against Pakistan and the ISI.

“The Agency is operating against Pakistan with Moscow Rules.

ISI is an enemy combatant.

The EMail comes from a “STRATFOR’s Pakistani sources” the source said: “I am getting the sense that the United States has decided to coerce Pakistan into compliance.” …, further it goes “If it continues on its current path then the U.S. could escalate matters further and engage in fixed wing airstrikes against militant assets in North Waziristan….”the main Haqqani facility is next door to the Pak army divisional command in Miramshah.” The source call this a “collateral damage”…”So in addition to collateral damage given the densely populated area a U.S. assault on the facility could kill many Pak army personnel.”

Smoking gun, Libya levels after La Belle Disco bombing.

I find it more interesting that the Agency has declared an internal
intelligence war on ISI.

Nobody is trusted.

The ISI-CIA battles have moved into a freezing Cold War. Temperature
has dropped significantly.

The Agency is operating against Pakistan with Moscow Rules.

ISI is an enemy combatant.

DC has told Islamabad. Help us reconcile with those under your
influence. As for those that are not under your control, either you
take em out or let us do so. The Haqqanis are not entirely under
Pakistani control. They do a lot of independent stuff.

There was a conversation that Islamabad facilitated in the UAE between
DC and the Haqqanis but then these guys turned around and engaged in a
series of attacks. But the Pakistanis aren’t willing to take action
against them. Spoke with Mullen who told me he has been lied to by his
Pak counterparts.

On the Pakistani side, the problem is that they deeply mistrust the
Americans and suspect that the U.S. is going behind its back and
cutting its own deals with the insurgents. Look at how Tayyeb Agha is
missing after the revelations that the U.S. was dealing with him to
reach Mullah Omar. I am getting the sense that the United States has
decided to coerce Pakistan into compliance.

Islamabad still has some time to help de-escalate matters but not a
whole lot. If it continues on its current path then the U.S. could
escalate matters further and engage in fixed wing airstrikes against
militant assets in North Waziristan. The problem has been that the
main Haqqani facility is next door to the Pak army divisional command
in Miramshah.

So in addition to collateral damage given the densely populated area a
U.S. assault on the facility could kill many Pak army personnel. There
is a growing U.S. view that it can always come back to working with
Pakistan. But for now it may need to get tough to shape behavior.

He is Talking about a case of friendly fire and he gives a view on the US Army work. He claims that the Army has make several mistakes and started a friendly fire situation:

“They picked up an Afghan source who deliberately mislead them into engaging
our post. The enquiry reveals that the US pilots having lived in the
area for 11 months did not even know the geography and had not marked
their maps. They did not use the instruments that we had put into place
for coordination i.e. liaison officers, joint border coordination cell
or the video conferencing…..”it was a case of friendly fire (it was
gross incompetence and total lack of concern), This has no impact (
everyday there is a squeal form some quarter or another). I want a
public apology…”

“They did not use the instruments that we had put into place for

the pakistanis when targetting haqqani network. And this is what happens
when you do that.

……..I almost have to wonder if the Pakistanis, faced with US forces
going on there own to target Haqqani, facilitated this afghan source
because they wante to show the US that bad things happen when US tries to
go alone

Kamran, good to hear from you. Thank you for your kind sentiments. I
have taken over 1 Corps which is transitioning into Central Command for
the Pak Army i.e. it shall coordinate operations for 30 and 11 Corps
while maintaining 1 Corps and 19 Division as well as the FC as direct
command troops. Its not there yet and will take a while before it really
completes the transformation. The killing of the troops was based on
typical arrogance and ignorance that is a trait of the US Army. They
picked up an Afghan source who deliberately mislead them into engaging
our post. The enquiry reveals that the US pilots having lived in the
area for 11 months did not even know the geography and had not marked
their maps. They did not use the instruments that we had put into place
for coordination i.e. liaison officers, joint border coordination cell
or the video conferencing. As such my response was swift, serious and
conclusive. The ball is in their court; the FC cannot be treated like
this and I had told them, no drones or cross border activity in my AOR
since I am clear what to do. You can use this information but please do
not quote me since it will be a breach of institutional ethics. You
shall hear a mix of confused statements, i.e. we are looking for
alternative routes ( I know nothing can support operations as this route
so that is a lot of bull), that the road will open soon, (it will only
open when we are satisfied), it was a case of friendly fire (it was
gross incompetence and total lack of concern), This has no impact (
everyday there is a squeal form some quarter or another). I want a
public apology, compensation for the families of the shaheeds and
wounded, new rules of engagement, punishment for the offenders,
definition of a no fly zone parallel to the border. Take care and watch
the fun.
