Interesting.
You talk about them being puppets, but do you think that the other Pashtuns (not from Kabul, but loyal to the Taliban) want to become puppets of Pakistan?
Because, although the Taliban is pro-Pakistan, the power dynamic has changed since the 90's.
So, how do you think the relationship between Pakistan and Afghanistan will be?
You might say that they will be friends because of the common history, but one can also argue that they will start off as friends but end up as enemies because of the common (recent) history.
Also, Pakistan will need to use a lot of money and manpower to keep the TaIiban happy. Historical bonds will not be enough for them.
Do you think that the Pakistani public will support that?
Because here on PDF there are many Pakistanis who only want the Afghans to go back to Afghanistan and stay there. They do not want the Pakistani government to spend any money on them.
Afghans and Pakistan have a relationship based on mutual respect and common values, history, race, and culture.
They are not our puppets, but allies and friends.
Taliban follow and gain guidance from religious scholars in Pakistan like Sami ul Haq and Mufti Taqi Usmani in fiqh matters.
It is not a relationship built on money or power, but on common faith and values.
I think mostly the influence will be on Pakistan, because it will push our society to adopt successful Afghan models of governance (i.e. jirga, qazi system)as the British system in Pakistan has failed us.
As far as Pakistani society, you have to remember it is very conservative and Islam is very important. Some liberals in the media and politics may resist, but they are being dealt with by Imran Khan and the army.
I remember that in 2001, Pakistanis were so loyal to the Afghan cause that almost half our people emigrated out of the US due to their war on Afghanistan. We are naturally disposed to having good opinions and friendship with fellow Muslims.
Afghans have started reciprocating our help of their country for 40 years and hosting almost 5 million Afghans in peace and security.
Future is looking good for both countries.
