You're supposed to be a think tank and you're saying "why we are hell bent on creating enemies"??
Bro do you not realise Afghanistan was an enemy that allied with India since day 1? It was never a friend and now the TTP has extended influence into large parts of Pakistan. (TTP is the brother of TTA, the Afghan Taliban)
Brother read history ... TTA was promoted by Pakistani agencies in order to get a Pakistan friendly regime in Afghanistan in comparison to indian oriented regime back in 1990s.
We then ditched them and sided with USA to the level that against all international laws we arrested Afghani diplomat and handed them over to Americans ... Even after that TTA keep a warm relationship with us when we supported them in exit of USA but then what happened why they turned against us ?
Do you remember news of killing of Ahmed Al Zawahiri ? There was a news attached with it which was never denied by Pakistani authorities ... Al Zawahiri was killed in a drone strike alleged to be from Pakistani air space ,,, this was never denied by us ... At the same time, our foreign office delegation visited Afghanistan but contrary to norms of Afghani culture not only foreign minister was absent but also hina rabbani khar was sent ... even a ten year old kid knows that talibans do not consider women to be good in position of power but out of dozens of visits by our foreign office delegation visit to a singly country was led by Hina rabbani khar without bilawal and that was Afghanistan ...
So first we were part of an attacked on Afghanistan then we insulted them ...
It is very easy at Afghanistan Pakistan border to start cross border firing and raids by some random individuals. ANy international agency can get it done by paying few hundred thousand dollars but rather than work with TTA to eliminate such threats togather we warn them of attacking them ...
If we keep on pushing them what option do they have. Place yourself in shoes of afghani ... We attacked them, we insulted them and then we threaten them of strike and now if they are responding then again we are blaming them ...
These type of strikes do also happened at Pak Iran border with a lesser frequency but we never threaten to attack Iran ... why ? they are stronger nation then afghanis? if this is the case then afghani has right to respond in the area they excel ...
Whats the solution ?
Solution is to use diplomacy and try to amke inroads within Afghani power groups make friends and take joint action against those who are attacking us ... From a logical point it is not in favor of TTA to had bad realtionship with Pakistan and this is vice versa as well so work on a win win situation ... Our enemies want us to fight with our neighbor as they cnt attack us directly thanks to nuclear missiles so they want us to bleed to death ...
War is not the solution , solution is to create an environment where there is no need of war but you still maintain an upper hand and your enemy are afraid of it . war is easy to start but difficult to manage and end and its a costly business ... with a much lesser but efficient resources we can get much better results ...
