Is the U.S heading for defeat in Afghanistan?

Well, the reason the Pakistanis helped them get into power in the first place was so that the Afghans couldnt be used by the Indians. There is genuine and very really fear that India will try to surround Pak on both sides.
Another reason is that the Taliban were the only friendly govt ever to rule in Afghanistan. All others were constantly trying to undermine Pakistan by supporting Indians, and trying to start a Pashtun uprising in the Frontier.

If the Taliban came back, Pakistan would again have a buffer against Indians in the East. Also, the FATA situation would be resolved on its own.

Ofcourse, im not saying having Taliban back would be ideal in the long run, but it wouldnt be a disaster for PAK either.

So what you are saying that it is better for Pakistan to have a Taliban dictatorship that is pro-Pakistan rather than a democracy that is pro-India…

India has other things to worry about than Pakistan.

India’s economy is growing, its competing on the world stage, its leaders get invited to G-8 meetings. India’s competitor is China and not Pakistan.

Pakistanis needs to realize that India has moved on to compete with China and after 9/11 the world is not going to allow this double game that Pakistan is playing of using Afghanistan to launch attacks in Kashmir.

Pakistan will never get Kashmir back.

Its time to destroy Islamic militancy in Pakistan and build what we have inside Pakistan rather than waste resources on a pointless struggle.
