One thing is for sure.
Once the yanks start leaving, lungi wala bhaiya will run faster and quicker than anyone else out of Afghanistan, so fast that his legs will be in delhi while the safron lungi will still be in karzais office in kabul.
At the end of the day the Afghan issue will only be sorted by the afghans. Pakistan will always be involved one way or the other, simply due to large amounts of afghans in pakistan, religious, cultural and border ties. The vast majority, which is the pashtuns have always stood behind pakistan and vice versa when it came as support against the soviets.
India should simply stop trying to flex it,s malnourished muscles off the back of the USA in afghanistan. All this bogus b.s about india being a lead player when the US leaves is absolute comical. If the entire allied forces can,t manage the talibs with all their weapons and technology, bharat mata with her arjuns and LCA,s won,t last a month.
Lungi walay bhaiya, this is the graveyard of empires and super powers and not some cheesy bollywood flick.
