Author’s Note: I have been engaged in writing a comprehensive article of the assassination of John F. Kennedy. This article has begun to assume the shape of a small book. The present article is based on material accumulated and written down for the said book. It has relevance to the current Pakistani scenario.

Owing to its strategic location, its strong army, its nuclear capability, the CPEC agreement, American presence in Afghanistan and above all Indian and Israeli designs, Pakistan has been a target of terrorism and sabotage by foreign powers. There are numerous dimensions and facets of this sponsored terrorism and its tactics. Pakistani authorities have now overtly focussed on Afghan refugees as one source of terrorism. The use of refugees to carry out subversion is an old technique that was perfected by the CIA in Vietnam. The plan to create refugees and then to use these refugees to commit subversion, leading to civil war in Vietnam, was perfected by a Col. Edward Lansdale. Though apparently in the army, Lansdale was a CIA employee and retired as a Major General. Lansdale was one of the most evil and brutal men of the twentieth century. He used to brag how he would torture Vietnamese and throw them out of helicopters alive. This is the real face of the CIA. And the Pakistani army and the civilian leadership must keep this in mind while assessing what is happening in Pakistan.

The astonishing thing about the war in Vietnam is that the decision to wage war in Korea and Indochina was made even before WW II had ended. Japan formally surrendered unconditionally on September 2, 1945, after Hiroshima and Nagasaki had been needlessly atom bombed. Ostensibly, in order to force the Japanese to surrender unconditionally, the U.S. had amassed huge stockpiles of arms and ammunition on Okinawa island. These stockpiles were apparently meant for a full-scale assault by 500,000 men. But this equipment and ammunition became redundant in view of the nuclear development.

Iraq: US Forces Evacuate ISIL Commanders from Western Mosul

TEHRAN (FNA)- Commander of Asa'eb al-Haq Movement affiliated to the Iraqi popular forces of Hashd al-Shaabi said that the US forces have carried out a rapid heliborne operation and evacuated two commanders of ISIL terrorists from Western Mosul in Northern Iraq.

Javad al-Talaybawi said that the US forces carried out the heliborne operation in one of the Western neighborhoods of Western Mosul, evacuating two senior ISIL commanders to an unknown location after the commanders came under siege by Iraqi government forces in intensified clashes in Western Mosul.

"Americans' support and assistance to the ISIL is done openly to save their regional plan in a desperately attempt," al-Talaybawi underlined.

Al-Talaybawi had warned late in February that the US forces tried hard to evacuate ISIL commanders from the besieged city of Tal Afar West of Mosul.

After photos surfaced in the media displaying US forces assisting ISIL terrorists, al-Talaybawi said that the Americans were planning to take ISIL commanders away from Tal Afar that is under the Iraqi forces' siege.

In the meantime, member of Iraqi Parliament's Security and Defense Commission Iskandar Watut called for a probe into photos and footages displaying US planes airdropping aid packages over ISIL-held regions.

Watut further added that we witnessed several times that US planes dropped packages of food stuff, arms and other necessary items over ISIL-held regions, and called on Iraq's air defense to watch out the US-led coalition planes.

Eyewitnesses disclosed at the time that the US military planes helped the ISIL terrorists in Tal Afar region West of Mosul.

"We saw several packages dropped out of a US army aircraft in the surrounding areas of the city of Tal Afar in Western Nineveh province and six people also came out of a US plane in the ISIL-controlled areas," the Arabic-language media quoted a number of eyewitnesses as saying.

Tal Afar city has been under the siege of the Iraqi volunteer forces (Hashd al-Shaabi) for about two months now and the efforts by the ISIL terrorists to help their comrades besieged in Tal Afar have failed so far.

The news comes as the Iraqi army had reported that the US air force has been helping the ISIL terrorists in areas controlled by the terrorist group.

The Iraqi army says that the US army is trying to transfer the ISIL commanders trapped in areas besieged by the Iraqi army to safe regions.
