Pakistan To Release Senior Taliban Leader

Matthew 24:7 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.

The Pakistan government could release Senior Taliban leader Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar in an attempt to help the Afghanistan peace process.

Baradar was arrested in Karachi in 2010 after a mission called a major win for the American CIA and Pakistani Intelligence Service.

“In principle, we have agreed to release him. The timing is being discussed. It should be very soon… I think within this month,” Sartaj Aziz, Pakistani advisor on foreign affairs to the Prime Minister, told Reuters.

Aziz told the BBC that Baradar would decide where he wants to go instead of being handed over to Afghani authorities. Baradar is one of the four men who founded the Taliban and has been called the linchpin of the insurgency against U.S. forces in 2001.
