American deterrence has collapsed. Despite sending two carrier strike groups, Hezbollah/Yemenis/Iraqis show them the middle finger and increase their attacks.

Wait a second. I thought the Taliban are heroes and pro-Pakistanis who will defeat TTP. But now Pakistan is their main threat? Strange.

Every country is progressing and building their economies and infrastructure while Pak is still getting bullied by ragtag tribal militias after decades. Not even the Taliban are facing any insurgencies anymore. Pakistan is now Somalia with nukes, but at least Somalia is taking the fight to...

There's no infrastructure for tracking fertiliser sales. What's stopping someone from smuggling bomb-making material from Afghanistan? The border guards are corrupt so they'll allow them through and the guys at the top make billions from it so they have no incentive to stop it either. You'll...

When they release the CCTV footage, I can bet 100% that it's gonna be some guy with baggy clothing walking around like he's taking a walk in the park, just like the Peshawar police explosion.

Not really. Terror attacks were steadily increasing during IK's tenure, as the shackle breakers took over Afghanistan. Now we have dozens of TTP camps in Afghanistan and an open-border policy just means attacks are inevitable.

A lot of Taliban family members were killed during the ANDSF counter offensives/air strikes back in 2021. I think they're purposely putting their family members in harm's way so they can have an infinite amount of recruits due to the outrage of inevitable civilian deaths.

But remember, don't worry, everything will be okay!

Peter Zeihan has been constantly wrong lol. Does anybody take him seriously? He said that China would collapse in 2005, https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/stories/2005/02/21/newscolumn1.html, and then in 2010 said they would collapse in 10 years.

Why would the Talibs remove TTP when they can be used against Pakistan as proxies? The Talibs also said they wouldn't allow Al-Qaeda but they lied about that too. Every single Afghan government becomes anti-Pakistan eventually, whether it's the Communists, Monarchists, Nationalists or Islamists.

But what's stopping IK from being deposed next time on a whim, if it's happened dozens of times before?

I don't even think it's possible now. Where will the money come from especially considering Pak will have to fight the Afghan Taliban too in such a scenario? The best chance was when Ghani fell and no one was on the border. Pak state completely powerless against TTP (haven't managed to bring...

Military should obviously be blamed. But IK lobbied for their handlers internationally. IK also promoted Pak-Afghan bhai bhai BS and sent millions in aid to them. Also used propaganda on Pak citizens to make them more sympathetic towards TTP and other terrorists by using religion in politics.

The solution is a permanent Turkish-style occupation of Eastern Afghanistan and the solidifying of the Pak-Afghan border. Long term goals should be the creation of Khorasan and containment of Afghan tribalists.

Can Taiwan even shoot Chinese missiles down? So far, they haven't downed any despite flying over/into their airspace.

These guys seriously want round 2?
