BREAKING! Kandahar has been captured!

[Patriot forever]

Seeing that bastard zaidi makes any Pakistanis blood boil. Son of a wh**e did everything he could against the state of Pakistan. Skin this dog alive and throw his body in the sea, such a vile corpse will pollute our land.

Pakistan's road to superpower status is solely linked to Afghanistan due to Stragetic depth.. Pakistan's interest in Afghanistan can't be underlined it is so great to the extent it becomes more important than any city in Pakistan. Pakistan needs a sole stragetic depth and Afghanistan provides the best stragetic depth anyone could ask for in the form of unpregnetable mountains which provides a fortress. The key here is for Pakistan to make a lasting deal with the IEA government and as you may know in any deal there is give and take.

IEA gives you 8 installations inside Afghanistan stragetic locations outside of civilian population centers to build 8 bases and installations preferably into the mountains. You deploy 1 mechanized division in these 8 bases and installations grouped into 8 battlions. This provides Pakistan with not only second strike capabilities but 100 times strike capabilities these peaks and mountain ranges have proven to be solid.

What you must give IEA in return is nuclear umbrella protection as your interest converge here plus assistance in rebuilding the IEA with lastest technology fighter jets, drones, tanks, and other military equipment. One thing you can trust is that the IEA never break their words once you reach an agreement with them. This is also pashtun traditions and this people keep their word to the last minute it is easy to work with someone like that. This provides Pakistan an unpregnetable incredible deterence to the point that nothing will be able to undo Pakistan elevating Pakistan into superpower status.

There has been some conspiracy theories of people murmuring about an attempt on Pakistan's sovereignty thru out the past years this will put to bed all these silly thoughts and drain it down the toilet.. Flushed out once and for all

We are seeing a different strategy the Taliban is employing at this moment. Before these guys would butcher those surrendering in mass and let's not forget those warlords who were much more vile and being dealt with leniency. They learned diplomacy? I feel @Meengla and @313ghazi are correct in their assessment these are a learned bunch they aren't the mindless types as before.

I am just thinking out loud here what IF when Taliban is close to secure major cities including Kabul they will be attacked via sustained airstrikes in which they sustain huge jaani nuqsaan what will they do then...? You know at present they do not have air cover ... and after that sustained air strikes campaign the UN suddenly jump in the middle and put orders of a peace keeping force or a political reconciliation effort including all the players in Afghanistan, by then Taliban badly hurt and with reduced influence in cities where they were bombed will agree to the terms of their opposition... do you foresee such a scenario happening? and if NOT why...?

 

[GumNaam]

Regardless the Taliban never would have been able to do this without help from Pakistan. Their leadership is in Pakistan. They took sanctuary in Pakistan. Their manpower, supplies, weapons. You think it comes from thin air ? They started off with 50,000 militants. You think they eat dust ? or work a part time job ? LOL

if it's true, then frankly america should just tip its hat and step aside bowing out to Pakistan, cuz they aren't the real super powers, WE ARE!

China and Pakistan will veto anything relating to that. China is prepared to recognize an IEA government

Don't you think by then it will be too late already since Taliban themselves have reduced influence and backing to support their case...i.e. after getting battered by airstrikes ... because to back ANY argument in their favor they have to show that yes they have control over that region in the Country and or they control the major Cities...

 

[Titanium100]

so, I know of an afghan at our local mosque who is from Mazar-i-Sharif and as per him, his family members there have said that Mazar-i-Sharif has basically fallen to the Taliban, the ghani regime officials are still there but the ana & police officials have basically surrendered to the Taliban and are letting them call the shots. it's only a matter of time before Mazar-i-Sharif is also declared as being under Taliban control. but as I said, an afghan from Mazar-i-Sharif told me that so it's coming through the grape vine, take it with a grain of salt for now.

This wouldn't surprise me and if many other cities have accepted the same condition. The Afghan people are experienced and understand the ground realities that Taliban has a fuel to go on for another 100 years. The Afghan people fully understand there is no upside this war.. Negotiating with Taliban was the only way to avoiding this if you don't die today, next week, next year than you will surely die within the next decade but death is certainty when their is such never ending approach

Just wondering if there were any real soldiers in ANA.. Seems like these soldiers were just for the monthly salary. Even the gangs in Mumbai or Karachi would have put up a better fight.

If they offered up some young boys as prizes, they would have fought like tigers.

On a serious point most half decent armies are led by NCO's and junior officers, and the afgoons had neither.

What airstrikes you talking about bro? The US will take out their people from Kabul. It is over pretty much. They have even stopped carrying out airstrikes because they know everything is lost hence it is pointless and airstrikes won't do much if it didn't change anything in 20 years. Afghanistan is mountainouns regions. Nothing is capable to deter taliban except a large invaasion close to 200-300k incursion and even they will be out again in few years and depleted rinse and repeat.. They have good landscape for war and mountains terrain very difficult for that army to bring their hardware to high altitude and no roads up there it is on foot from there.. This is why the whole campagin has failed to begin with and same reason a previous Soviet campaign failed

 

[M. Sarmad]

Misleading Title

Kandahar has not been captured but decolonized, LIBERATED and reclaimed

More power to Afghan Freedom Fighters

 

[Rafi]

The talis are not 10 foot tall super soldiers, yes they would have eventually advanced with much bloodshed, but the ANA just surrendered and ran away.

You don't understand this but would have only understood this if you were in the Afghan's shoes. You have two choices fight an eternal war that you will lose regardless or live for another day and don't waste your life in an pointless effort you don't have the stamina for nor the longevity for it. The decision becames easy and this is a song all the Afghan's have heard it before and they know how this song is gonna be playing forever beat by beat.. It's like a deja vu. When lives are on the line the brain always tends to defeat illogical thoughts and goes with the sound judgement
