Either US buckling to Pak pressure or US has new plans against Pakistan...

Another one??

I think it would be foolish to believe that all of this is happening randomly. Surely there has been some major understanding between Pak and US ( including Afghanistan). The only terror organization that has conducted multiple attacks over last one year was TTP, its elimination means one of the major Pakistani concern has been addressed in the region.

US killing commanders of own proxies simply mean that a new plan is being rolled out, we should be ready for new adventure,speed up fencing and mining of western border and must send Afghan refugee back.

 

[Imran Khan]

Some of you Pakistanis NEED to believe the US created/funds TTP. why? Because it distracts from the alternative truth, which is the internal support and help they have and get.

I guess Iraq also had WMDs, Saddam also supported Al Qaeda? Not to mention Pakistan must be supporting Taliban?

Bro,

CIA did not create TTP. In-fact, US recognize TTP as a terrorist organization and is helping Pakistan in defeating it.

Looks like Pak and US riding the same wave now.
