I doubt whether Pakistan can afford to the repeat the mistake. This time Pakistan would have to face consequences that would be severe. Pakistan would loose even the little sympathy and solidarity that it is enjoying in the comity of nations. This would be for Pakistan a blunder both financially and strategically
Financially it costs us little to nothing, sine most of these groups have their own fund-raising apparatus.
Just look at the number of schools, clinics, hospitals and charitable works the LeT (and later the JuD, after it split off from the LeT) was able to run.
Strategically, well, that will depend on how the US effort in Afghanistan is proceeding, and how long the US presence in Afghanistan will be of a substantial size.
