Today’s headlines have spilled what has been suspected by many – the US considers Pakistan’s leading intelligence agency, the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), a terrorist body. According to official documents made public through the WikiLeaks, the US administration has ranked the ISI among 70 terrorist entities.
English daily Dawn reports that according to the WikiLeaks revelation, the ISI has been listed with terrorist organizations like Al Qaeda, Hezbollah, and Egyptian Islamic Jihad. The WikiLeaks document betraying this secret consist of a 17-page threat-indicator matrix and it shows the links of some of the Guantanamo Bay detainees to the ISI.
According to The Huffington Post, the ISI did not comment on the said WikiLeaks documents on Monday, April 25, 2011, when the news first became public. But today’s news in Daily India tells that the ISI has denied the existence of any such links with terrorist as claimed in the WikiLeaks documents.
The latest WikiLeaks revelation that ISI is considered a terrorist organization by the US has taken the ongoing stress in US-Pakistan relations to a dangerous peak. What follows is hard to predict but it is pretty much clear by now that the support which Pakistan’s military and intelligence received from its western allies (or some may call it ‘masters’) is water under the bridge.
