Washingtons War on Terror strategy is such a resounding success that the ISIS/ISIL is now launching a Pakistan franchise... ISIL establishing footprints in Pakistan 09-11-2014: The Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL) is luring members of Taliban, and other militant groups to join its ranks in a bid to establish its footprints in Pakistan, a report sent to Islamabad by the state government of Northwestern Balochistan province claimed. Quoting ISIL’s claim, the report billed as “secret information report” said the militant network has already recruited 10,000 to 12,000 militants from Hangu and Kurram Agency tribal areas. The report said ISIL had offered “elements” from Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), a conglomerate of different insurgent groups operating in Pakistan, and hardline Sunni militant group Lashkar-e-Jhangvi to join its ranks to attack security installations and minority Shiite community in Pakistan. The network has also formed a strategic planning wing to establish its bases and recruit followers in Pakistan, the report issued by the home department of Balochistan government stated. Pakistans Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan provinces must be prepared for possible ISIL attacks on the border with Afghanistan, the document said. The warning has been issued weeks after six key Taliban commanders, including former TTP spokesman Shahidullah Shahid, announced their allegiance to ISIL leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
