Bro, this is simply incorrect. Repeating same lines over and over again won't make it a reality. This is not even historical event that we could forgot so quickly. The Taliban were our closest allies. Even after the soviet withdrawal and till 9/11, there was complete peace, there was not a single attack, there was not a single terrorism, whole Paf-Afghan border was of no concern, Pakistan never posted any military over there as long as Taliban was in control throughout the 90's.
Just take out the assumptions from your mind once and forever. If you want to persist in saying no no taliban are enemy then tell me why on earth they were our close allies in the 90's and why there was no terrorism back then? You need to find that answer. I am telling you with statistics and not just saying my opinion. Those are the facts. So, I will once again try to explain you what happened after 9/11.
We jumped in War on Terror that was not our war, Taliban or any other group never had attacked Pakistan, but still military establishment jumped in without setting any red lines. Taliban was removed by American sponsored Northern alliance. That government was staunch enemy of Taliban and even more bigger enemy of Pakistan. India invested a lot in northern alliance government of Kabul, RAW & NDS colluded, the TTP became strongest during their time, TTP had all the fundings and supply chain it could have imagined, TTP reached till Swat. As soon as Taliban started to become stronger and increased its attacks against Kabul government similarly, the TTP started to become weak. BTW, TTP got local support from Pakistan because it was Pakistan that allowed US to bomb our own population, We let americans bomb funeral processions and gathering of tribesmen. Whatever mess is created is our own doing.
Perhaps you have ZERO idea of previous Pro-indian Kabul government. Just listen to the speeches of their president and vice president Amrullah Saleh. Google the name, and watch his speeches or interviews against Pakistan, Watch NDS (isi eqivalent of previous Afghan govt) cheif statements against Pakistan. They used to openly abuse Pakistan, calling Pakistan as Sl*t and what not. The indian military trained previous Afghan military. So its your choice you want those Norther alliance guys back who hate your existance or you want Taliban with whom you never had problem before you became US puppets (before 9/11)
Taliban will become our strongest ally again and we will not require to bother about our western border once Pakistan & GHQ once Pakistani military regime stop behaving as US puppets. Taliban has only stopped collaborating with us AFTER witnessing our military establishment working like CIA agents, allowing drones, doing regime change for US interests, etc. Its not just Taliban which lost trust in Pakistan. China and Russia has also lost trust in Pakistan.
Only a fool would want to annoy Taliban and bulldoze any relations & trust that is left. Because making enemy out of two longest borders means quick death and nothing else. Its so obvious but still I have to explain that jumping in deep well will kill you but you and few others are persistent that no we should jump. No technology and amount of military power can stop border infiltration when border is as complex and as long as AF-Pak border. Vast mountains, valleys, caves, rivers all goes through these borders, try to invoke your imagination. You need to wish for peace & properity in Afghanistan and not war. Its for Pakistan's benefit.
@Bleek &
@Goritoes,
Don't make it an ego issue and don't give arguments for the sake of arguments. I am trying not to win an argument. I am just trying to put some sanity.
Before giving any further arguments, Just answer me Is it correct:
Was there no terrorism in Pakistan before 9/11?.
Was Afghanistan under Taliban most peaceful for Pakistan ?
Was Af-Pakistan border (under Taliban - 90's) most peaceful that we didn't even bothered to post military over there?
For anyone who is 40,50 years old, the answer is YES, YES and YES for all three of above questions. So your whole crap of arguements has no value at all that Taliban are bad for Pakistan and bla bla bla.
Now let's see What type of Kabul government Taliban overthrow. Which govt was Pro-indians and collaborating with RAW ? Was the previous Kabul govt OR Taliban govt ?
Its a clear cut answer, the previous govt was totally in bed with indians.
Whatever ideaology and whatever false concepts that you guys have built in your minds are too far from reality. Its time you guys think with logic and check facts.
What's the solution in Your minds?
By the way, I means its too hilarious reading your comments but I am genuinely intrigued that What is the solution in your minds? For a moment I believe you that okay We need to declare Taliban as enemies then what? How do you plan for Pakistan's survival between two monster size enemies then ? That too with no money and so much internal problems, so huge debt, empty pockets, food and power insecurity and all sort of problems and you guys go ahead and annoy the neighbor that shares 2700 border with you. I have explained time and again that even 100 KM border cannot be sealed, the kind of terrain and the size of this border makes it impossible to seal. Even trillion dollar budget cannot do it. I am no fan of Afghans or Taliban but I am not insane that I will make Taliban our enemy, I want to see Pakistan's survival. But anyways, let's see what is the solution in your minds that you are persistent in your thinking for so long.
