Punjab doesn't want that.

Why?

Why?

The Taliban, if I may say so, is just another face of Pashtun nationalism. Islamic albeit. But majorly Pashtun. The Taliban were the Pashtun faction of the Mujahideen.

I see so many Pakistanis here trolling , the same people cry on other threads that radicalized mullahs are the ones not letting Pakistan progress , you guys should learn!

The irony is that it was the Tajiks, under the hero Ahmad Shah Massoud, who were the most effective in fighting the Soviets and forcing them to retreat. Yet Massoud and his boys were totally neglected by Pakistan, which diverted the lion's share of the funding and weapons to the corrupt Pashtuns like Hekmatyar and Rabbani. Why? I suspect because of the Pashtun influence within Pakistan, they were partial to their own ethnic group across the border. Pakistan military has a big Pashtun component, going back to the days of that moron Ayyub Khan.
Don't forget Massoud, the Lion of Panjsher, was assassinated by AQ as a gift to the Taliban, literally two days before 9/11.

Still why this should bother Punjabi populace? I thought Pakistani establishment sees Taliban as its extended and some (Pashtun nationalists) may even see it as extended arm of Punjabi dominance.

You're right, the Taliban is like an antidote to Pashtun nationalism which easily descends into an anti-Pakistan, anti-Punjabi prejudice. It's totally in our interest for Taliban to takeover Afghanistan. Ironically, the US just realized the same thing, albeit quite late. Taliban will never cozy up with Iran, unlike the current government. Taliban are not totally against the idea of the US having some permanent military presence in that country, perhaps some permanent military base, which is needed to checkmate Russia, China and Iran, due to Afghanistan's central location.

Punjab population is indifferent to it. But now many are against it because of the wreckage Taliban wreaked.

The Pakistani establishment did see the Taliban as its extended wing in the 90s and 2000s. But now it has realized that a broad-based multi-ethnic government in Afghanistan is the way to go.

This I 100% agree with you on.

That was what I was trying to get at but didn't have the energy to type.

Massoud and the non Pashtuns were a much more smart choice for Pakistan to support. A non Pashtun based Pakistan allied government in Afghanistan would have kept the Pashtuns in check from meddling in Pakistan.

And I strongly suspect it wasn't the Punjab component (except Hameed Gul and his jihadi folks) but the Pashtun component of the establishment who went for Rocketyar and his crony group.

Thank you for saying this. This is something none of the bootlickers on PDF realize.
