Hosla rakh bhai its not that black & white. TTP will be hunted and continues to be hunted as do BLA. Remember the whining by bla about so called victims being captured by Taliban.
Taliban though not perfect will still be a thousand times better than that harami Asharf Ghani and Saleh along with uts entire cabinet.

Afghan Mujahideen have been fighting a war over the last 40-50 years, nearly non-stop. They just got their country back and people expect with a wave of a magic wand, they will stop TTP from attacking Pakistan?

What planet do such people live on?

Afghan Mujahideen are establishing writ of governance, combating ISIS, combating the remnants of Northern Alliance, trying to get the West to unfreeze the country's wealth and you think that the Afghan Mujahideen will storm through the gates and annihilate all TTP goons?

Give it a rest will ya!

Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran ought to be working toward establishing peace, but before they could even work toward that, they need to learn to trust one another and work with each other. This gesture by Pakistan is the correct move in attempting to establish a friendly, brotherly and trusting relationship with our Afghan neighbors. The same approach needs to be toward Iran as well. We must break through the bickering and divide between the Muslims.

What happens when the Taliban inevitably are forced to get aid from those who wish to harm Pakistan using Afghan territory? These 5 billion rupees and any more we spend would be give far greater dividends for a long time.

Pakistan knows it cannot afford to waste money and this is anything but wastage. It's a very smart investment.

I understand where you are coming from and I feel your sentiments. I do not want to indulge in a religious discussion but try to recall "Brotherhood Established Between Migrants and the Ansar", those people were not billionaires yet they shared.

Secondly, even from a strategic point of view, any humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan will only affect Pakistan, more migrants, more TTP, more terrorism, more chaos.

This is a shrewd contribution for altruistic, strategic, geopolitical, and economic reasons. One can say Pakistanis are generous to a fault, but it does not apply in this case. This is a calculated monetary intervention that will pay dividends in terms of cost avoidance (i.e. burden of refugees, increased crime, greater defence costs and border management costs).
