Some reports emanating from Washington suggest that due to the recent verbal spat of karzai with them , they are contemplating a complete withdrawal from Afghanistan. If that happens, there’s a very strong likelihood that the country could again face a civil war situation. Like Shamraz has mentioned I believe Pakistan should stay neutral and guard its borders. We are not in a position to take in more refugees, the country should in that case ask UN to look after them.

Americans will not leave the place just because they are angry over a spat. They would rather prefer to remove Karzai from the scene if he does not fit in their scheme of things. The US will be fool to withdraw completely from Afghanistan without putting in place a workable and sustainable peace plan that involves Taliban and Pakistan. Everything depends on how stable Washington wants to see Afghanistan once it’s gone from the battlefield.
