TTP and HG have a pact to not take up arms against each other so no you are wrong about this. Like I said, their control over Nanganhar and the areas adjacent to Pakistan is one of the reasons why cross border incursions are fewer recently as they do not allow TTP training camps in their areas, however they do not fight them.On the contrary, haqqani network is the likeliest option. Haqqani network is the most well trained and well connected faction of afghan taliban. They are controlling the negotiations with US as well as ground forces. They have also been the main opponents to daesh and TTP joining daesh might have given the reason enough to eliminate them. They also have the strongest intelligence network in Afghanistan and specialise in high profile assassinations.
Haqqanis did not fight TTP as long as they were not allied with daesh. Are u not aware that most of TTP have joined daesh. On the other hand haqqanis have been fighting daesh since the beginning. Now that ttp and daesh are allies, haqqanis are taking them out. There are rifts within ranks of ttp as well.TTP and HG have a pact to not take up arms against each other so no you are wrong about this.

I am not sure of the presence and assets it has in Afg to want to actively engage but in way their assets(likely “common” free market agents) may have the advantage of slipping through the net kept for agents of PK.
Look in deep on recent senate seat selling and look at those 20 faces, you ll get the answer.I would like someone to shed some light on the role of Gen. Musharraf at the primary phase when TTP was just unfolding.
