Yaar, did you have a bad day at work or wife is angry?

I don’t support Taliban either and you can see that I have railed against imran Khan for that. You never even answered my post. Why does Afghanistan contest Pakistan’s border on false premises? Was it Pakistan that didn’t recognize Afghanistan in 1947?

My point is that it is easy to rail against Pakistan in America, but logically Afghanistan has to give something in return. Seriously with the current state of afghan forces, Afghanistan itself is a base of Taliban. Aside from zakaria, no other american analysts of any worth are blaming Pakistan for kunduz loss. It doesn’t even border Pakistan, so you should tone it down.

As far as ghani, Pakistan helped with negotiations. You can’t have border control if Pakistanis army is fired upon at the border. The other part is about afghan Indian trade and do you think it would happen with modi in power?

sarkar why upset with me…matlab digya khotay tuu tay ghussa kumhar tay

i absolutely answered your post 200%…you did not answer my post :). i categorically said that our problems with afghanistan like the ones you are listing (border issues, sending refugees to pakistan, insurgency etc) does not mean that we start creating, nurturing and unleashing these animals called taliban on afghan people instead of improving relationship with them via foreign policy routes. every neighbor has problems with each other but to solve those problems, why did Pakistan create taliban in early 90s and unleashed them on afghanistan? i am not sure you agree with that approach or not.

You keep on repeating what Afghanistan did wrong and i understand that. My question is something else though. my question is is our strategy to address those problems via taliban a right strategy or not? and if we are not supporting those afghan taliban, why are they always found in Pakistan. our own press now reporting that mullah omaar died in krachi and his predecessor mullah mansoor has safe haven in quetta..and while osama bin alden was not a taliban, we all knew, where was he found? why? just a coincidence?

anyway, no point of going in circles. thx for your input.
