Cut Taliban with Taliban

By Irfan Waheed • Dec 1st, 2009 • Category: Politics • 4 Comments

Whether anyone admit or understand it or not, there are good and bad Taliban. Every nation has its full right to assert and protect its own interest. We have done plenty of interest-serving to the Americans and now enough is enough and now its time that we should also look towards our own interests.

Due to rallying for the US interests, we have harmed ourselves a lot. Our soldiers and citizens are dying and our economy is in shambles and the US papers and the leaders are still apprehensive of Pakistani efforts and they are always hell bent upon asking Pakistan to do more.

The United States moved into Afghanistan in 2001 in pursuit of Al-Qaeda. It is eight years since and in spite of American dollars, soldiers and NATO forces they have not made any headway. They now want Pakistan to do their dirty work, but already Pakistan has done enough and now Pakistanis areas of FATA and PATA are on fire.

Thugs, criminals, kidnappers, drug peddlers, smugglers, fanatics, and mercenaries are at work in the FATA. Pakistan should engage the Taliban of Afghanistan to cut off the supply lines of these terrorists in the FATA. This would be the greatest blow to the terrorism in this region and would save Pakistan lots of hassle too. The US is surreptitiously seeking Saudi help to negotiate with the ‘good’ Taliban in Afghanistan for its own interest, and so we should also serve our own interest, and we don’t need KSA for that purpose.

Pakistan is not a ghost state or banana republic and we must discourage the US hire-purchase policy.

  1. Few days ago, Pakistan’s President Mr. Asif Ali Zardari said that Pakistan’s stability based on to promote the agenda of America. Follow the U.S policy are one of the challenge for Pakistan, but I think there are many other challenges. Besides, U.S policies are functioning to destablize Pakistan. There is very difficult to analyze the situation and make policy what should we have to do.

  2. Pakistan is facing all kinds of problems, challenges and issues in the world. We all know about them. Extremism is the one that we all need to focus on. We have to finish extremism from our country as soon as it can be. At the same time we have to praise the Pakistan army to have ran a successful operation in South Wazirstan especially. A lot of militants have been defeated in this area and their plans have been ruined as peace prevails in our country for a few past days.

  3. The factor that is de stabilizing Pakistan is extremism. I believe till the time the elements of extremism exist Pakistan will not be able to grow. The excess of anything is dangerous and affects in a bad way. We should be able to realize and understand that. We have to fight extremism before we think about making policies.

  4. Pakistan has become ghost state.Examples are obvious
    Who killed Benazir?
    who allowed the clear way to Musharraf who is behind all this mess in our state on the name of cooperation of war on terror?
    Who brought zardari into most top position from the house of darkness?
    Who is taking responsibility of abnormal war in swat which had displaced 5 million people and scattered them in whole country?Ghosts of Taliban had got full opportunity to disguise under these IDPs.
    Who brought NRO team into critical state positions by wiping off their international crimes.
    For the last 6 years almost 1000 suicidal attacks had been made by ghosts of talibans and still going on and we are unable to stop them.
    Ghosts come and eat our all sugar, flour and other food items.
    Ghosts can switched our power whenever they desire.
    So what proofs more we are looking for in this ghost town.
