Afghan govt may accept this, people wont.

 

[nangyale]

Afghan govt may accept this, people wont.

Very true.
I would say no self-respecting nation will accept a surrender document like this.

 

[dawn_news]

Afghan govt may accept this, people wont.

Well 90% of Afghan budget is western aid. They don't have anyother option, surrender document will be signed this year.

 

[Pakistanisage]

This is a sell out of Afghan Sovereignty. Let us see how the new administration of likely presidential Candidate Mr. Abdullah Abdullah deals with this issue.

Yes indeed , as if we haven't destroyed our country enough till now by participating unnecessarily in the Afghan Jihad with the Ummat's monetary help and assistance and training from the People of the Book that we would need more trouble from the other side of the Durand Line , which when crossed makes a person travel back in time .

Looks like pakistans relationship with American drones will continue, a pleasure for Afghanistan.
Viva loy Afghanistan.

Looks like your country will be further digging the hole you are in and crawling inside . There's no restriction on day dreaming and fantasy stuff here , continue with pleasure . But remember , so thought Zahir Shah and so thought Daoud , so thought Amin and so thought Karmal , none of whose ' thinking ' or actions were of any use . The Durand Line , to put it simply , is an irreversible action and a done deal , a fait accompli as the French would say . Not even your old friends sitting in New Delhi and the Govt of the Presidential palace can do anything about it , heck you couldn't do anything with the full blessing of the Kremlin back then , what Heroin induced hopes do you have now ?

Chairman Saheb!
Leave this Afghan jihad, ummah, and other associated bla bla's for time being and tell me would it be in our national interest or beneficial to leave Afghanistan alone?

Remember , there are always lessons to be learnt from past , not to remain stuck in it but to make sure that the same mistakes aren't repeated in the future . Unfortunately , this country and its people do not appear to have learnt anything from the 80's debacle and the aftereffects . Not a choice to leave it alone now , but nothing more than minimal interference to ensure a friendly Govt in Kabul would be beneficial for my country . I am not therefore not suggesting abandon but an end to this obsession with Afghan brothers and Afghanistan .

And people wonder why Iranian call the USA "Great Satan" ... the document reminds me Capitulation in Iran back 1964.
