I think Pakistani members should write letters to Pakistani intellectuals and media persons to raise the Afghan issue at the national level.
Here is a letter I wrote to Hina Blauch who recently penned the article for Dawn titled: "Afghans and Pakistanis; friends turned foes?"

Ms. Blauch,
I read your article on Dawn titled: "Afghans and Pakistanis; friends turned foes" with great interest.
I feel you have done great justice to the topic, especially by weaving, in your narrative, both empirical evidence and anecdotal accounts.
Further, I think, you, as an intellectual are well poised to seed this discussion, on the Afghan topic at the national level.
I think it is the need of the hour that the Afghan topic, gets its fair share of the national cognitive capital. Pakistanis need to debate and decide on how they are going to deal with Afghans and Afghanistan.
I would appeal to you to lobby your colleagues in academia and the media to further this discussion.
Once again thank your for your scholarship on the subject.
