@Sohaib

it is quite simple. Currently all gung-ho strategy is not working and leadership in KPK (as well as federal) needs to think outside the box.

and it does not mean taliban is our friends all of a sudden. They will be isolated through tribal leaders.

We have negotiated with them in the past (re: Swat) and they decided to expand to buner against the stated agreement since they poo poo the pakistani constitution and society.

And what tribal leaders? Many have been killed by taliban and any that are left probably don’t have the appetite to risk their lives. If PTI really cares for FATA, then they should go for repealing FCR and have local bodies there as malik system has collapsed and failed to contain the taliban.
