Results are only viewable after voting.
It has never been clearer than now that Afghanistan has become the hub of terrorist activities inside Pakistan. This has been not only acknowledged by the highest level of the military leadership rather the COAS has unambiguously stated that in his recent addresses in CHOD conference in Kabul and in Munich. Pakistan has cleared all the terrorist spots / sanctuaries from its territory and the remaining fragments are being combed and removed through intel based ops. However, terrorists are operating from Afghanistan. They enter Pakistan through the porous border which has not been fenced completely yet, mix with Afghan refugees and get support from some of them and then launch attack on various targets inside Pakistan.

The situations is even more complicated due to fact that the Kabul regime is very week and unstable and according to US reports, 70% of Afghan area has no writ of the Kabul govts. Furthermore, there is undeniable evidence that NDS actively supports terrorist activities inside Pakistan as a policy

Another more horrifying aspect is the formation of IS Afghanistan based on the remnants of ISIS in levant after being thrashed by Russia and Assad. They are being equipped and supported by hostile agencies. With time it will grow stronger and a menace bigger than TTP both in terms of numbers and quality. Thus Pakistan must act proactively and perform complete surgery along the Durand line and wherever necessary.

Please express your opinion and vote according to what you think should be course of action for Pakistan. We should keep the example of Turkey in our mind.

Use three-pronged strategy:

1) Send in spec-ops to neutralize any enemy units

2) Deploy drones for reconnaissance and strikes

3) Continue to fortify border with barriers

And people in PDF always ridicule opinion from few Indian's as Bollywood dream. Now I know, we will only get the second price, the Lollywood dream is far better I guess. LOL :lol::lol::lol::lol:

More than strikes you need a better foreign office. A better foreign office doing diplomacy is a far more important because Pakistan is being pushed back by bad diplomacy.

Then down the lines come intervention in afghanistan!

How long can we do that? and what is the guarantee it will eliminate all terrorist activities? Because someone with a bigger briefcase would come and them more. I don't think we are the richest guys in this block.
See, no war, no arm sale. No arm sale no international leaches. No international leaches no mess. If we somehow manage to stop the war for more than 10 years, many people will be capable of war, no more. You see, delaying tactics may work for us.

:D which 15% do you disagree with.
Yaar I don't want to wait until we have a good foreign minister in office. PA is doing both the strikes and the diplomacy so we should keep doing that until we get a better FM but not wait.

Sure, but be careful. I don't want any innocent Afghans dying. Use whatever is most precise.

I am 100% for a Mini 1-2 Month war to Occupy this region

  • Test our Leathal force to destroy Terrorist strong hold
  • Occupy the Region 100% all Cities and Airports
  • Launch a RAD-UL Shaytan operation inide it and clean it out
  • Then easy travel for all peceful folks

The extra land would be great for Pakitan's growing population
We have population of 200 Million people

Adding afghan region , we will "DOUBLE" our size for square mile


Resident of new 2-3 provinces can form political parties and participate in Pakistani Election after 10 year wait

Their should be the occasional strike against any miscreants who are lobbing mortars at our positions, the strikes should be of similar nature to those we conduct on LOC, if the need arises ie HVT is spotted perhaps a team from SSG needs to go over and neutralize that HVT, I personally prefer much more covert action, use our assets in Afghanistan to do our bidding.Kudos bro
At the same time the local media narrative needs to be forged in favor of this policy right now they are ignoring this issue

Pakistan will grow no doubt thats why NATO were quick to act. This will play out for 100 years so relax not in our lifetime.

I would say it will prove to be very difficult to control the region in the longer run.. Instead, we can do remote strikes.. but that too with extreme precision, in which innocent afghans aren't harmed in anyway..

India is by the way waiting for such an opportunity so that it may start a proxy war against Pakistan inside Afghanistan.. Pakistan will bleed more.. Right now, situation in Pakistan is quite under control. We just have to complete the fencing on afghan border so that only authorized individuals are allowed to enter through specific entry points..
