Haqqanis and Gul Bahadur are the only taliban factions based enitrely out of Pakistan,which causes rivalvry between haqqanis and local taliban commanders.
That's a Pakistani Wet dream.
IDF saw 21 suicides in 2011.
So for a force with a strength of 180k this means 11.6 suicides per 100,000.
Indian Armed forces saw 119 suicides which mean 9 suicides per 100,000.
Canadian Armed forces saw 20 Suicides per 100,00 troops.
AS for Turkey:
Turkish DM says 965 suicides among soldiers...
We always wanted Afghan peace talks to be Afghan led,which what is happening as US recently accepted Karzai's demands after he threatened to stop the talks.
BTW Taliban was forced to remove the 'Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan from signboard' much to Pakistan's displeasure.
Looks like your local madrassa didn't teach you Maths
Time for a small lesson:
1500 suicides from 2001-2012 means 1500 suicides in 12 years
277 suicides from 2007-June 2013 means 277 suicides in 6.5 years.
BTW IA has lower suicide rate than US army,British Army,French Army and is at par with IDF.
India never listed/declared Taliban as a banned or terrorist organisation.
It is actually GoP which lost it's eggs as it ants to talk to TTP despite banning it.:)
Even 1500 Suicides in 12 years or 300 Suicides in 6 years is a low figure.
US military saw 349 suicides in 2012 alone:
2012 US military suicides hit record high of 349 | Fox News
But as Pakistanis claims India has 700000 Security personnel in J&K even 300 suicides in 6 years would mean mere 7 suicides per 100,000 troops.
1028 Suicides in 10 years for a 1.2 million army is quite low.

PAKISTAN STUMBLING FROM SECTARIANISM TO SHIA GENOCIDE (By A Z)
The Taliban: Exporting Extremism, by Ahmed Rashid, 11/99
@Pak-one unlike TTP the Afghan Taliban is not highly sectarian(atleast after 2001).
The bombing of a Shia mosque in Afg which killed 80 was carried out by Pak's LEJ.
Pakistanis must ponder why Indian consulates in Kandahar and Herat have never been targeted despite the building hosting them being large and prominent landmarks.
