Pakistan and Taliban might have agreed on letting Afghan soil being used against Pakistan but clearly that is yet to happen
Both BLA and TTP are still using Afghan soil against Pakistan for now
Current regime in Afghanistan was always bound to fail. Imran Khan or General Bajwa didn't do anything special. Everyone knew even when Nawaz Sharif was PM that Ashraf Ghani government would fall as soon as Americans would leave which they had to sooner or later. There is nothing current establishment has done. It isn't like Taliban were failing before General Bajwa and Imran Khan and then suddenly started winning against ANA due to some policy change by Imran Khan or Bajwa
My concern is that out of all the withdrawal and all that what exactly Pakistan is getting out of it? Where are the Pakistan's interests? Why Pakistan's enemies are still enjoying refuge in Afghanistan instead of getting killed or running away? And since you mentioned PTM, it is another gift of current establishment. There was no PTM under PML(N). I am not PML(N) fan but questions needed to be asked by current establishment that where exactly we are going and why our soldiers are getting killed again and again and again
Are you for real bro. That kabul regime is still in power.
The peace process had nothing to do with Pakistan?
PTM was created during plmn tenure after they marched to Islamabad unabated and aggressively campaigned by plmn social media team, do you have amnesia or something, they have always been an NDS project to challange durand line from inside Pakistan. Now adays plmn is using ptm and the likes of achakzai to blackmail pakistan army. Who do you think supports a specific group of judges who let the terrorist free?
I think your gripe lies elsewhere, FC had more casualties during previous tenure. Heck we had 62 american drone attacks on our soil.
The last phase of this war is about to start. It is going to be bloody. If we develop a solid understanding with whoever governs Afghanistan (most likely taliban with different other players integrated) after the choas, than only we will succeed. Afghan taliban are not our puppies, they are a formidable and balanced force with proper hierchy and organization. We all know our engagement with them and their understanding of not allowing Afghanistan land to be used against us.
Their is a factory operating in Afghanistan with ample supply of cannon fadder and unlimited resources. You destroy one another will replace it, are you going to do cross border counter attacks for eternity. We dont have the manpower or resources to guard both our borders like loc.
Whatever we were doing previously, operations and what not was to subdue the symptoms, regain territory, there is no other way of securing our western front without suffocating the enemy of room to operate from Afghanistan soil. The main reason for this be it bla or ttp or ptm is to open multiple fronts for pakistan army, and to destabilize Pakistan. There are different phases in war.
