It does not make sense either way. US and Pakistan should talk but since US is a world power its arrogance prevents it from listening to genuine concerns of Pakistan.
We dont believe USA is in Afghanistan to leave. If it stays, it creates a lot more problems than imagined. All this talk of fighting terror from USA is bulls*it. If it was sincere, a handful of Taliban and other groups could have been easily eliminated. Look at Russia. It liberated couple of Syrian cities from ISIS and Al Qaeda type terror groups. Russian campaign also unraveled clandestine links between Americans and these extremists groups. USA is still in Syria purportedly fighting ISIS. But its real reason is to give support to extremists in Syria to force a regime change in Damascus.
Granted Pakistan cant fight USA. But at this moment, US needs Pakistan. But looking at ground situation and US track record of deceit and lies, Taliban should hold their territory and be a force to chip away at American power in Afghanistan. USA has to go if South Asia wants to see peace. Else it will keep creating mischief in Iran, Pakistan, Russia and China. All neighbors of Afghanistan and all on wrong side of American interests in the region.
