I draw no comfort in words in support of Talibaan; our sacrifices for them, willingly by the establishment and imposed upon tens of millions of Pakistanis, has not won us any friends in the entire first world whereas we have gained the ire of many. Having sacrificed tens of thousands in lives and many billions of USD in finances and yet we read about the Talibaan forcing us to stop erecting fences and rejecting the Durand Line. And all while we are begging the world repeatedly to save the Afghans from cold and starvation, sending them billions of rupees of aid and having sent hundreds of millions of USD through free movement of Afghans to and from Pakistan.
This is a one way traffic and it has been this way for a very very long time. I do not understand what the establishment gets out of it but the Pakistani people have only gained klashnikov, drugs and prostitution initially and lately lots and lots of terrorism, all of it with roots to Afghanistan. We are too damned unlucky with such a neighbor and perhaps we need to get our priorities straight and align our interests to the benefits of the US in a way which is profitable for us in the long run!
