I agree that his comments may not please you.
Let's leave out PM for now. Leave out India from the picture.
Do you think Pakistan is capable of taking action against terror? Fully and with no holds barred? Don't you have many vested interterest who won't let Pakistan do that? Institutional support (whether official or not) that helps these people survive and carry on?
So I know it would not be appreciated coming from an Indian but I guess you would find many Pakistani writers (and highly respected ones) who also write along the same lines. People like Irafan Hussain.
I think Pakistan is indeed capable of taking action against the Taliban inside her own country.
It needs the right support, it's as simple as that.
How can you possibly say with certainty that foreign intervention in Pakistans fight against these militants will prove helpful?
Shouldn't you be looking at the overall picture, what would be feasible or managable? Shouldn't Pakistan be stable and economically strong in order for the Taliban on her side to crumble?
How will unjustified and unauthorized strikes inside Pakistan help Pakistan as a whole against the Taliban?
Pranab should be ashamed and receive a smack on the head for saying that Pakistan is incapable of action against these terrorists.
Thousands of Pakistani soldiers have died, hundreds and hundreds of civilians have died, including women and children, thousands and thousands more have been wounded.
Still, the Pakistani Army is as determined as ever to fight off any insurgency, the whole nation of Pakistan, with the exception of a few, wants to get ridd of these radical mullahs who think they possess the power to act as some sort of government institute.
Pakistan can use all the help, but help means in a "helpful" way, something that really adds a PUNCH to Pakistans abilities to eliminate the terrorists.
Wars are not won in one day, and especially these kinds of wars, they are never to be won in a short span of time, the right decisions, the correct aid, the strong determination and the full support of the people will eventually lead to dismantling these taliban pigs who have been a pain in the *** for our beautiful nation, however, with comments from Pranab or others who tend to undermine Pakistans dedication towards fightning terror, it won't help ONE bit, it's just completely useless, just like Pranabs threats against Pakistan.
It's just not helpful, I would instead like Pranab to say that he is fully committed on helping Pakistan get ridd of this evil or join forces with Pakistan and ensure a "terror-free" South East Asia?
But that's just wishful thinking, this warmongerer has seriously done his best in trying to destroy the progress both nations have made so far in terms of trustworthy relationships.
