Kunduz is home to a large number of Pashtun , it was always a strong hold for the taliban. Infact , it was the last taliban province to fall after the 2001 US invasion. If you look at afghan history ,you will find that ethnic tensions have infact featured consistently and till this day , the...

I am sorry but what does pulling troops out of Kunar or Nuristan have to do with South Waziristan . Kunar and Nuristan are adjacent to Bajaur and Dir agency. Pulling out troops there would have no affect as during op -south waziristan TTP either fled to NorthWaziristan or to Zabul Province in...

I thinks its a normal reaction , remember back in the days of hakeemullah mehsud , Pakistanis would often blame U.S of all countries ,of arming TTP. When infact , US was conducting drone attacks every day against TTP and TTP claimed the chapman attack killing CIA operatives. Its much easier to...

Well guys calm down , Ignore the afghan twitter rants about pakistan ,they dont matter .They are just pissed off . If you see the Kunduz attack news coverage of BBC ,CNN , NBC even Fox News there is no mention of Pakistan. Infact they are bashing ANSF for its lackluster performance on the...

Other rumours suggest taliban have entered Kunduz airport. Claim to operate 8 Tanks, 40 Ranger vehicles, 15 other military vehicles . They have also blocked Baghlan to prevent convoys of Afghan security forces from reaching Kunduz Taliban also denying the death of Mullah abdul salam akhund

Wrong .ANSF was present in Kunduz prior to the assault . Just a couple of days ago the police chief of Kunduz along with the army general and governor took pictures in the city center. ANSF were also present in Qalaizal district .This is further proved by the fact that the taliban showed images...

Post 2008 ,TTP were driven out of NWFP( now KPK) and were never able to take back Swat or Dir , they have no presence in kpk anymore. They maintained presence in parts of FATA , mainly in NW ,SW and khyber-bajaur areas. But that too has changed after op ZEA and Khyber1 and 2 .Forget cities...

Unfortunately , Ghani saab is too busy in NewYork demonizing Pakistan and his ministers are too busy championing their imaginary claim on durand line , they fail to see that they just lost the 5th largest afghan city to the taliban and that too in the northern regions. Whats the plan here ?, is...

:coffee: Lol , What rock have you been living under. Go look at a map sonny, kunduz is at least 400km from the Pak-Afghan border . If you believe that militants from pakistan somehow crossed the border , bypassed kabul then mazar sharif and traveled hundreds of kms up towards the tajik border...

Kunduz is up in the north near Tajikistan. It's no where near the durand line thus disproving the theory that the taliban insurgency is a Pak-afghan border phenomena and somehow its the pakistani based groups that are wreaking havoc on afghanistan and that without Pak support they would...

What are you smoking man ?. Just because someone pays ministry of hajj for arrangements doesn't mean they can hold them accountable for the natural disasters and mistakes made by the pilgrims themselves. They aren't puppeteers are they ,they cant control the actions of every individual. Have you...

What on earth is wrong with you ? These were accidents and they can happen anywhere. Stampedes are mostly caused by pilgrims not following instructions , trying to go the wrong way. I remember when i was 13 at hajj , a stampede was caused by pakistanis who were carrying luggage on top of their...

They say this is the battle of wits but unfortunately ,we have to many dim-wits like you running around posting uneducated ,ignorant and to be very frank totally insensitive BS. Please get this through your thick skull .Those assailants weren't yahoos as you call them .These were not your...

I beg to differ. Just a year ago, TTP controlled almost 5000 sq.km of land in Northwaziristan alone .Not to mention , major tribal population centers like miranshah and mirali , where they were running their terror economy. All that land has been taken away from them and with khyber1&2 so has...

Its unfortunate to see some deluded members nitpicking an incident that led to the loss of precious lives .We are in a state of war and will be for some time. There has been a substantial improvement in the overall security situation , there is no doubt about that .A couple of years ago , we saw...

No, the afghans and Iraqis have already payed for that with a couple of hundreds thousands lives.

Delays ,extended deadlines , corruption , probes and commissions . These are the only developments we get in the power sector these days . So far the government performance has been abysmal in solving the energy crisis. List of debacles 1. Nandipur power project Scam Nandipur power project...
