“The rise of the Taliban movement owed up to the great extent to the support of Pakistan and help from Pakistan Islamic parties. For the Taliban Pakistan’s support was definitely not based on any ideological consideration. It was entirely based on purely geo-strategic reasons. The present book deals mainly with unholy alliance of Pakistan with the militants and military, inside Jihad, the conflict within, etc. in very broader perspectives.” (jacket)
