That's the reason the Afghan population will accept to be pro-anything but not Pakistan.
I am also pro-India, but that doesn't mean I am against Pakistan. It's like having 2 neighbors, one friendly and other pain in the a**.
You're right. Afghans have always had a problem with Pakistan
since its creation. And they are far too foolish to see what's good for them. Take Pakistan away, take away NATO, and India... all that will happen is, you Afghans will end up throttling each other, too much internal bickering and too many cowboys turned leaders/politicians.
You were the one of the only countries to vote against our admission into the UN in 1947. Never recognized the international boundary. Have been playing games to
destabilize Pakistan for well before this era of hostilities.
If you do so hate us, I consider it may be a blessing, please build a moat about the durand line, most Pakistanis will find that very agreeable.
I still have fool's hope that relations might become good one day. I don't see it happening yet though.
If you consider 80's strategy a disaster, what do you suggers Pakistan should have done to mitigate Soviet presence in afghanistan. The same soviets who helped india in breaking Pakistan into two in 71 and once again was supporting Baloch and pashtun communist elements. Remember the Pashtunistan movement of late 70's'? and the Baloch rebellion ?
We stuck our necks out a bit too far, let some of our efforts and external war efforts go unchecked. Our intervention was entirely justified, and we did the right thing in intervening. I am certain of this fact, however, taking in millions of refugees, unchecked, importing all sorts of cultures and using them for war efforts, radicalising sections of our society for war efforts, this is something that we can now look back and see a strong case for it having gone wrong. We also went about some aspects of our intervention wrong, we backed certain factions over others and caused hatred on to ourselves where they could and should rightly hve been gracious for our involvement.
However, without hind sight, it would be hard to have seen it coming, had we have had to do it all over again, I don't see how it could've gone any differently.
