The Taliban Tax

"Violating the Waziristan Accord yet again, by taxing North Waziristan residents and training al-Qaeda and Taliban

The Taliban yet again flaunt the terms of the Waziristan Accord, which is supposed to be an agreement between the Pakistani government and local tribal leaders to curb the power of the Taliban. In the latest violation of the agreement, the Taliban has imposed a "tax" in the North Waziristan town of Miramshah. Dawn reports flyers announcing the tax were distributed as well as pasted on the walls in Miramshah and the surrounding areas."
