Secret Pakistan is a two part documentary by the Wikipedia:BBC first aired on 26 October 2011.[1] It included claims by mid-ranking Taliban commanders that they had been taught bomb-making by Pakistan's intelligence agency Wikipedia:Inter-Services Intelligence, and suggestions that the ISI had tipped off high-ranking Wikipedia:Al-Qaeda figures about imminent American attacks.[2] The series generated controversy after Pakistan blocked BBC World News claiming it contained “anti-Pakistan†content and that the program was one sided.[3]
However, the documentary utterly failed to note the close connection between the ISI and CIA, which is one of the foundations of the 9/11 conspiracy theories.
