Re: Taliban announced one month long cease fire..
Retrospectively speaking, Pakistan had won the war on the TTP the day General Kiyani walked out of the GHQ and General Rahil Shrif stepped in. Imagine the two generals and see the difference in their body language. General Sharif has brought with him a no-nonsense military philosophy of not missing any chance of retaliation. Just like the one quoted above. General Kiyani in that situation might have called out Haroon-ur-Rashid and had a 5-hour session of intense smoking.
When Chudhry Aslam was hit by the TTP in Karachi, I had said that the military should have an action plan ready whereby it could take out TTP targets in a matter of hours if the militants act against the state. That’s what precisely happening now. Now they will surely think twice before leaving their dens to actualize their villainous plans.
