As Pakistanis we must also accept the blame of interfering in Afghan affairs and supporting our puppets instead of coalition government in 1992. In hindsight, Ahmad Shah Massoud would have been a better leader of Afghanistan and nearly 4 million Afghan lives would not have been lost duet to civil wars, US invasion and occupation. On April 24, 1992, the leaders in Peshawar agreed on and signed the Peshawar Accord, establishing the post-communist Islamic State of Afghanistan – which was a stillborn 'state' with a paralyzed 'government' right from its inception, until its final succumbing in September 1996. Under the 1992 Peshawar Accord, the Defense Ministry was given to Massoud while the Prime Ministership was given to Hekmatyar. Hekmatyar refused to sign. With the exception of Hekmatyar's Hezb-e Islami, all of the other Peshawar resistance parties were unified under this peace and power-sharing accord in April 1992. Although repeatedly offered the position of prime minister, Gulbuddin Hekmatyar refused to recognize the peace and power-sharing agreement. His Hezb-e Islami militia initiated a massive bombardment campaign against the Islamic State and the capital city Kabul. Gulbuddin Hekmatyar received operational, financial and military support from neighboring Pakistan. Then we found another puppet Talibans and started another bloodbath in Afghanistan.
Invade Pakistan in 64 --- Blame Pakistan
Support Baloch insurgents and Pashtoonistan --- Blame Pakistan
Start civil war --- Blame Pakistan
Soviet intervention --- Blame Pakistan
Soviet invasion --- Blame Pakistan
Civil war --- Blame Pakistan
Taliban takeover --- Blame Pakistan
US invasion --- Blame Pakistan
Taliban beating them --- Blame Pakistan
The day they grow a pair to blame the USSR for killing a million of them or the US for eliminating so many civilians or their own government for being corrupt and incompetent will be the day I will think about giving a fck or two about them blaming Pakistan.
Blaming Pakistan sure is a convenient way out from accepting responsibility for own failures.
And anyone who thinks that Hekmetyar, Taliban or any other Afghan who are known to be stubborn as a mule are Pakistan's "puppets" is deluding himself. Ask yourself why these "puppets" didn't obey us after 9/11.
Then we found another puppet Talibans and started another bloodbath in Afghanistan.
Taliban ended the bloodbath.
Restored law and order and made sure that the rule of strongmen who killed, raped and plundered with impunity ended. (The Pakistan bashers are usually the kith and kin of these warlords---sure they are hurt as the Taliban didn't allow them to have them their way with the peasants)
Except a pocket of Panjsher entire Afghanistan was stabilized. And your president Rabbani was at one point asking for Taliban's help in uprooting Hekmetyar's positions around Kabul.
