Afghan Taliban says sending fighters to Iraq-TV

A senior Taliban commander said in remarks broadcast on Friday that the Afghan Islamist group was sending fighters to Iraq to support anti-U.S. insurgents.

“Whenever there is a chance the (Afghanistan-based holy fighters) mujahideen travel to Iraq and the opposite is also true,” Mullah Dadullah told Al Jazeera television in an interview.

“We have very strong relations with the mujahideen in Iraq. The mujahideen stay in Iraq for a month for example then they come here,” he added in remarks dubbed in Arabic. “We also share intelligence.”

“Travel from and to Iraq is at a peak currently ... if any mujahid wants to carry out an operation in Iraq he can travel.”

Several Sunni Muslim groups including a wing of al Qaeda, which is allied to the Taliban, have been fighting U.S.-led and Iraqi government forces in Iraq.

“We also share intelligence.”

So many brains; so little intelligence; naturally they have to share it.
