I certainly hope so. Rest of the world can say what they want but fact is Afghanistan and Pakistan are conjoined twins. Yeh sometimes we can hate each other but our geographic, ethnic and historical legacy will never be erased. I like to see the relationship with Britain and Ireland as analogous...
Some news for the people who keep bringing up the good, bad and the ugly. Pakistani media is reporting Sohail Shaheen has made it clear Taliban will not accept any TTP or Pakistan Taliban operating from their soil. So Pakistan can sigh a relief. TTP had sanctuaries in Afgh., but ANA took no...
India is one of the top countries on earth where the girl child is murdered in the culture which wants boys. The girl is then washed down the drain in a sickening habit to just have sons. This has been done in India on such a scale that your gender pyramid has become distorted. Should we get...
There is direct correlation between refugees waves that wash on distant shore and these military interventions howsoever framed. I live in UK and every wave we have had here will have military thumbprint on it. Before 1990 I had never met a Iraqi in my life.

I think you know me as uber-secularist. So my views are not emphaticaly driven by any reasons relating to faith - rather based on reason and logic. The figures you cite actually validate my position.
Your argumant is premised on USA continuing to occupy Afghanistan and the war contrinues to...
You know my views about religion, secularism and medievalism going as Islam. But I think your being overly pessimistic. Afghanistan was never going to turn in Luxembourg anytime soon and least of all at point of US invaders guns. We have to accept each society where it is on the evolution...
It's about time members accepted this reality. Taliban is Afghanistan. Of all the groups and factions in the country including the one USA built up Taliban had the widest and deepest support. Thus they are the face of Afghanistan.
Ultimately this was the reason they trounced ANA - aforce...
I think it's about time you changed your twitter feeds because their credibility is even less then Ashraf Ghani's right now. Until just a few days ago you guys were pasting tweets which lauded the mighty ANA and Special Forces. How the Indian trained Afghan airforce in combination with ANA had...
Sometimes the she child does not even get to be born and have a life. They are effectively culled and a invisible burqa placed on their would be existence. Notice the two blues.
At times on the Torkham border between Pakistan and Afghanistan things would get tense and even both sides opening fire and people being killed. With ANA gone to holiday to Varanasi this is what the border checkpoint looks like now. Pakistani FC troopers and Taliban border guards 'chillin'.
