For all those who laughed at our analysis of 2014:
BBC News - Afghanistan Taliban 'confident of victory' over Nato
Truth is bitter.
Ah....Sir Ranger,
Afghanistan has nothing to loose.As I have stated earlier that question isn't here as if Americans have lost war against Afghanistan, for due to the past observation of Russian scenario...many things were obvious.The right question here is as if Americans have succeed in damaging Pakistan or not?
I tell you,Americans didn't arrived to wage war and take over Afghanistan.Americans have arrived to damage us,as Afghanistan is not a nuclear state nor it's currency was equal to Indian currency in past years.It was Pakistan,it was all about us!
Look at us now,how much we are damaged..our economical infrastructure,our major loss of lives,one dependency upon IMF.Our image is tarnished and our tourism sector is almost dead,just because of supporting 'Operation Enduring Freedom',we are facing TTP now.Our army is deployed upon Afghan border thus our pressure has reduced on Indo-Pak border.I don't blame Americans for this completely as they simply took benefit of our uncapablities to sustain pressure and our pseudo policies.We would have failed them if our infrastructure and co-ordination was strong and smooth with one another.
Thus,the best solution here is that Pakistan must seal her borders and review her policy in case of Afghanistan.We cannot afford to engage ourselves with Afghanistan,we must try to sustain our relationship at every level ie we must approach towards those elements which can help us to communicate with tribal lords and other tribes/groups as well as our government must continue to sustain relationship with Afghan regime.Mark my words that if we succeed in replenishing/reviving our lobby in Afghanistan then Afghan regime's attitude will be changed drastically.I also agree with your point that is why I am suggesting this.
I also agree with Mr.Farhan's point of view to some extent,we need to deal with Afghan refugees and consider visa policy as well.Stable Afghanistan with strong influence of Pakistani lobby inside it will not only support our back,but it will also effect positively upon Pak-Iran relationships as our border with Iran will not be affected by these terrorist,and for this our Intel and counter terrorism policy and cross border security must be strong.
-Regards
