Interesting footage from the 1965 War. Didn't know Desmond Hayde led a parade through a conquered Pakistani town. Perhaps @Joe Shearer can share more?

Pakistan is working its own interest. As far as Pak is concerned, anyone not remotely associated with India is good - and the alternate to Karzai an now Ghani Govt. is Taliban. But Pak's ability to commit harakiri in foreign policy and military policy is legendary - a false sense of "security...

When I read new road brings Tibetans hope, I assumed the CCP had built a road straight to the Indian border outpost where the Chinese citizens could ask for refuge so they don't have to trudge across mountainous terrain in search of hope.

Top LeT commander among 2 terrorists killed in J&K's Shopian encounter Two terrorists, including a top Lashkar-e-Taiba commander, were killed in an encounter with security forces in Jammu and Kashmir's Shopian on early Monday morning...

India and China will keep engaging in a game of one upmanship. The countries whom they court will happily milk both. And why not?

Why are you tagging me here? When I have said otherwise?

First time I've seen a Pak General talk strategy. Usually it's all tactics and bluster. This guy seems to have a more holistic view and is pragmatic and brutally honest. How come he didn't become Army Chief?

So is the source Indian or Pakistani? Is it available in English?

I would state just before the Soviet invasion.

Why just Asia - borders are pretty arbitrary all over the world. There will always be some cultural overlap between border areas - NY/Ontario, Alsace & Lorraine and German-speaking Northern Italy come to mind. Point here is not the borders drawn but the ACCEPTANCE of the borders in question...

And however spirited the debate and the bad blood, let's stick to the topic at hand - Afghanistan. There are enough Indo -Pak threads where these debates can take place.

Ad hominen attacks are against forum rules. Stick to the topic. And of course India shares a border with Afghanistan - it's just currently illegally occupied by Pakistan and is known as PoK.

Americans have always ordered the Pakistanis around. And Pakistan meekly complies. This won't be different.

I think there are too many possibilities to predict what will happen. All these analyses are based on the Taliban being one entity. I doubt it. There must be fissures based on tribes and regions even within the Taliban. They aren't even very good fighters considered over the last couple hundred...

Reminds me of the story from Charlie Wilson's War There lived an old farmer who had worked in his fields for many, many years. One day, his horse bolted away. His neighbors dropped in to commiserate with him. “What awful luck,” they tut-tutted sympathetically, to which the farmer only replied...

Lol. That's as absurd as the Germans celebrating the Dunkirk evacuation as a German victory and then making a movie on it.

It really defies logic.

You followed me here as well?

Ah, it's so heartbreaking to see West Pakistanis wistfully reminisce about the hand pulled rickshaws of erstwhile East Pakistan.
