I have no idea what they are thinking but there are many things that we can't change.
1)Afghanistan(Taliban or no Taliban) will remain hostile towards Pakistan.
2) Taliban in power means total destruction of Pakistan. What we did with the soviets is exactly what we did with Americans but with different results.
3) Problem is deep. radicalization. System of the madrassa, funded by Saudi directly. We have to destroy this system but it will take decades.
4) War against Taliban. Even if we try today, we can't win. we can bomb them but we can't stop cross-border attacks. Pakistan had the golden chance to reduce the size of Afghanistan during the American left invasion but we did nothing.
5) War against TTP, Taliban, and radicalized individuals might take decades as well. There is no short-term solution.
6) Pakistan must survive. Mounting pressure on Pakistan means military action on Pakistani soil. India did that. Nuclear blackmail finally fails. The chances of Indian invasion increase day by day.
7)Current economic situation needs to be addressed asap. Taliban also wants parts of Pakistan which is no hidden secret.
8) Finally destruction of Afghanistan. either military action(Which could take 15 years) or nuclear attack. I prefer a nuclear attack on Afghanistan's main cities especially on Kabul.
9) Joint military operations of Pakistan with India, America, etc, on pak Afghan border areas and inside Afghanistan. A nuclear attack on Quetta. Elimination of Haqqani network etc.
10) Pakistan must declare Taliban and all associate proxies as terrorists.
Also, I would like to edit further. If the current situation continues and if TTP, and BLa continue to attack than we might run out of soldiers within 10 years so either nuke them or nuke ourselves. Do we have the balls to nuke Afghanistan? No.
What is the point of all these shiny weapons?
New Wing long drones, new bayraktar drones, new CH4 drones, new Burraq drones… and we all here jump up and down.
New Jf17B3s new J10Cs… and once again we jump up and down like a bunch of clowns.
We dont need any more new weapons, what are they useful for except military parades and a sense of false ego….
Honestly I feel beyond shameful as a pakistani. Even if tomorrow we get 5th generation jets I literally dont give a crap. Useless weapons with useless generals at the helm.
Honestly nations such as Ethiopia, Syria, and Myanmar who dont even have 1% the firepower our military has have more self respect in my eyes…
