Where do the Taliban get their funding from???

Here is one article, backed up by a report by a Harvard Research fellow, Matt Waldman and former Head of Advocacy for Oxfam International, which argues it is Pakistani ISI...I would also add to it that Pakistan won't spend all this money from their own pockets alone, but a big chunk of their funding is channeled through Pakistan for sure. This makes me think of the funding sources for the Mujahideen who fought against the Soviets in the 80's, which was a puzzle at that time, but is almost as clear as "the sun in the sky" today...skeptics may be convinced of the links to Taliban also in a decade or so!

Read here the BBC article and find here the original report.

A former Canadian Ambassador to Afghanistan and later UN envoy, Christopher Alexander, recently made a similarly bold comment...read here for more details.
