Re: Taliban's demands

The timing of COAS's visit to Saudi Arabia is very significant. I personally don't like the idea of holding Peace Talks with Taliban while the Army Chief is out of the country.

Re: Taliban’s demands

Let’s see how the authorities respond to these, however. :hypo: Most of these demands are expectedly preposterous.

Re: Taliban’s demands

Some of them can be done, like development of FATA etc. If its a give and take, then a middle ground can be struck somewhere

Only these two are valid the rest is all garbage not even worth mentioning

Re: Taliban’s demands

Agreed. Tough decisions ahead, this much is certain.

Having said that, it does feel that these economic type of demands are just pad up to the real deals of freeing prisoners, dropping all charges against TTP and all that.

Re: Taliban’s demands

Interesting discussion here. I agree with Moeed Pirzada. This is not a constitutional, legal or religious issue. **This is playing politics in the name of religion **or political brinkmanship

TTP’s sharia slogan is just a rhetoric. yeh Islam ki jang nahin balke "Islam ki ‘tashreeh’ (for political gain) ki jang hai" much like Zia’s sham islamization drive. This is about political power or regional (FATA +/- beyond) control

What a paradox. Why don't they apply shariah to themselves first and accept the punishment proposed in Islamic law for those who spread 'fassad' and kill indiscriminately. Point 2 and 4 and of course in contrast to each other.
