Amrullah Saleh was an interpreter for an NGO in Pakistan when the war broke out in 2001. His knowledge of the United States and his impeccable English, made him a perfect choice for CIA operators coming into the country and Saleh quickly found himself a new high-paying job, going from $400 a month, to $200 a day. When the war wound down, Saleh, found himself with lots of contacts, dual citizenship (he had lived in the US), and political ambition. In 2003, the FBI, hot to break into the Afghan counter-terrorist ops club, started setting up shop in Kabul by throwing around lots of money. They aligned with Amrullah, used their State Department contacts to get Engineer Araf (a Massoud man and high-ranking member of the Northern Alliance) fired. Karzai, with the help of the FBI, now had control of the country’s intelligence service, and that meant he could decrease Panshir power and protect his Pashtun “former” Taliban appointees. In February of 2004, Amrullah Saleh, already a senior NDS intelligence official, replaced Panjshiri Mohammed Sarif Sarwari, as the new head of NDS (National Directorate of Security) aka NSD (National Security Directorate).
