If Pakistan 'splinters' | Indian Defense Review

[SQ8]

Anyone will agree to anything after "intense interrogation"

Touche, I guess the same could be said about particular militants out of Shopian.
The simple fact is, India wants payback for Kashmir..the Mayor of Kabul is willing to help out.

And he still doesnt know how to save his own backside first before lending help to potential Indian state terrorism

He wont survive post 2014 very long. The best that might be done is that Kabul will remain a state city with expanded strongholds depending upon American presence.. while the Taliban will slowly move into ANA areas and just remain there as presence not actually allowing the ANA to hold any position whatsoever. Desertions might happen has well in the outlying towns and areas.

Sure, it may not end up as the 90's Afghanistan with all things scattered.. but it will not be a "stable" state. Rather much like Sri Lanka with large sections under Taliban control. In that mix, the Indians may continue to try and assist the ANA in creating trouble for Pakistan but as such their effectiveness(and safety.. as an Indian stands out among Afghans) will be much weaker compared to with the Americans presence.

Actually he is trying to get a bigger role for himself by lobbying for his selection as national leader as he cant become Prez for third time as per constitution.

I see more mess ahead as all the 11 presidential candidates are having pukhtun ethnic background who will succeed him .

But again the wrangling based on ethnicity coupled with anti- coalition forces still powerful there indeed, an unstable Afghanistan ahead. And as you said in between Indians with help of ANA will spread terrorism in Pakistan
