Re: Sharbat Bibi - The Nat-Geo gril got CNIC
There are two problems here.
1: In time of crunch, will they be loyal to Pakistan or Afghanistan.
2: If Pakistan gives citizenship to all Afghan refugees than why not to whole Afghanistan population, and that can be done by annexing Afghanistan with Pakistan. At least in that way, Pakistan can benefit too.
Afghanistan is an artificial country, that depends on Pakistan for more or less everything … food, job and trade.
I think that Pakistan should ask for referendum in Afghanistan that if they would like to join Pakistan and become province of Pakistan (actually, there could be 3 to 4 Pakistani provinces in area that is Afghanistan) or not. They should be encouraged to vote yes, and if they say no than Pakistan should deport all Afghans in Pakistan to Afghanistan. But if they say yes to become part of Pakistan, than Pakistan can use armed force and make all tribes in Afghanistan unarmed, bring law and order there, and make them live as equal Pakistani citizen.
Doing that would have many advantages, It would be easy to do trade with central Asia and since Afghanistan is resource rich, after developing the resources, it would enrich both Pakistan and Afghanistan.
