Terrorism will not end until we do operation on illegal Afghans living in the country who have links with Taliban in Afghanistan.

Spot on my friend. I have been saying this all along the way but it seems that many members either don't agree or not comfortable saying this openly. Terrorism has a lot to do with the Afghans illegally living in Pakistan for its them who primarily introduced drugs and lethal arms and tons of black money in this country. In order to win this war, we need to kick these thankless Afghans out of Pakistan and guard (I know sealing is not possible) the border. I even think that it wont be a bad idea to raise an entire corp, to be stationed on Pak-Afghan border, with primary responsibility to prevent any intrusion from Afghan border.

Some might argue that we don't have money to raise a corp. My answer to that is, Pakistan loses billions (not millions) of dollars each year purely due to the stupid Afghanistan Transit Trade Agreement (ATTA), which is the biggest reason behind the smuggling and a parallel economy in Pakistan. Only if we could break ourselves out of this, we would be left with money not only to raise and maintain a corp but to do many other things. I wish we never had Afghanistan as a neighbor, I wish.

Army says 910 “terrorists”, 82 soldiers killed in North Waziristan
By Dawn.com

File photo
ISLAMABAD: A statement issued by the military on Wednesday put the official number of “terrorists” killed in Operation Zarb-i-Azb at 910 and added that 82 Pakistani soldiers had also lost their lives during the North Waziristan offensive.
The death tolls and their breakdowns could not be independently verified as journalists have limited access to the restive tribal region.
The statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) added that 27 explosives and arms making factories have also been destroyed and the operation in North Waziristan was on track and going according to plan.
The army says it has taken over complete control of major towns of Miramshah, Mirali, Dattakhel, Boya and Degan, which were previously considered militant strongholds.
The statement said the 88-kilometre-long Khajuri-Mirali-Miranshah-Dattakhel road and the Ghariom-Jhallar road have been cleared.
"Huge caches of arms and ammunition, communication equipment, and other logistics facilities used by terrorists have been destroyed; uprooting their ability to attack as a coherent force," the ISPR said.
"A total of 2,274 intelligence-led coordinated operations across the country have been carried out to avert any blowback of the operation and 42 terrorists have been killed and 114 hardcore terrorists detained in these operations." It further said that since the start of the operation 82 Pakistani soldiers have lost their lives and 269 were injured.
The ISPR said relief operations for those “temporarily dislocated” due to Zarb-i-Azb were continuing, adding that so far 19,376 tonnes of rations had been distributed among 97,570 displaced families at six relief delivery points in Bannu, Dera Ismail khan and Tank.
Military operation Zarb-i-Azb was launched on June 15 following a brazen militant attack on Karachi's international airport and the failure of peace talks between the government and Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) negotiators.
Nearly a million people have fled the offensive in North Waziristan and taken shelter at camps for the displaced.
