US accepts Pakistan Demand "Do more in Afghanistan" against terrorists.

Warmonger republicans and Pakistan are natural allies.

Except they never provide us the necessary helicopters and choppers or F16 when we request it

Days of Obama are over. Pakistan just need 10 minutes to convince Trump. Obama couldn't have dropped this bomb no matter how many times Pakistan asked them to take out ISIS/talies etc who cross over to attack Pakistan.

Chinese president only needed 10 minutes to convince him on North Korea.

After listening for 10 minutes, I realized it’s not so easy,” the president told the Journal. “I felt pretty strongly that they had a tremendous power [over] North Korea. ... But it’s not what you would think.”

Pakistan with some effort can convince Trump to provide more military toys for terrorism, F-16 to start with. This will be tremendous for Pakistan security.

Definitely, but if this is confirmed to be true, I think we should discuss the risks and benefits for Pakistan.
Just heard Musharraf speaking at the university in USA and he said the biggest mistake of USA was not to include Pakhtoons in the democratic process of Afghanistan. I have been watching Afghan Media for long they have been reporting against Pakistan but today it was a different tone for us. I think ISIS just gave them a wake up call by attacking the presidential palace few days back. I also posted the thread about those attacks.

Its a sin to compare India with Pakistan


I agree.

It is indeed a sin to compare Pakistan with India considering India is a state sponsor of terrorism. The target of Kulbhushan Yadav, the Indian spy on death row in Pakistan, was average Pakistani civilian and it leaves no doubt that India promotes terrorism in Asia. And then there is the case of India's Taliban, LTTE.

WASHINGTON (Pajhwok): The United States committed a blunder in post 9/11 Afghanistan ‘by not giving enough representation to the majority Pashtuns’, former Pakistani military ruler Pervez Musharraf alleged Thursday.

Musharraf told a Washington audience the mistake resulted in resurgence and re-emergence of Taliban and Al Qaeda, which is responsible for the current situation in Afghanistan.

“After 9/11 the Taliban and Al Qaeda were defeated in Afghanistan. This was military victory. This military victory was to be converted into a political one,” he said in his key note address to a conference on Pakistan organized by the School of Advanced International Studies of the Johns Hopkins University.

“The military victory (over Taliban and Al Qaeda post 9/11) created a vacuum in Afghanistan for one and half long years,” he said.

The retired general said the requirement after the defeat of the Taliban “was to convert the military victory into a political victory.”

“In Afghanistan, in Kabul there ought to have been an ethnically balanced government,” he said, ruing that the Pashtuns who were in majority were not given a proportional say in the new government.

“This was one of the greatest blunders, which has impact even now,” Musharraf said, adding the vacuum in Afghanistan should have been utilized to transform the military victory into a political victory. “This resulted in resurgence and emergence of the Taliban and Al Qaeda,” he added.

As far as ARY news is concern, thread title is being adjusted with the same.

Rest about N-NB attack by US, the same was also necessary and need of hour per US strategy especially since Russian advancing diplomacy to gather much support for action against ISIS in Afghanistan.

I think he makes a good point there.

I have been watching Afghan Media for long they have been reporting against Pakistan but today it was a different tone for us.
Could you please evidence any change in tone of the Afghan media?

TTP's hideouts are in Afghanistan's Nuristan and Nangarhar provinces so any significant US action there should be welcome by us.
