      Afghan War is excuse for Pakistan not deploying to Gaza as part of Trumps board of peace. Asim Munir is going to say they are tied up in war…lol

      > Pakistani authorities said that dozens of Afghan refugees in the Torkham border area had been relocated to safer places.

      > In his post, Asif also said Pakistan had played a positive role over the past five decades, hosting about five million Afghan refugees. He added that millions of Afghans are still earning their livelihoods in the country.

      > But Pakistan launched a sweeping crackdown in October 2023 to expel migrants without documents, urging those in the country to leave of their own accord to avoid arrest and forcible deportation and forcibly expelling others. Iran also began a crackdown on migrants around the same time.

      > Since then, millions have streamed across the border into Afghanistan, including people who were born in Pakistan decades ago and had built lives and created businesses there.

      > Last year alone, 2.9 million people returned to Afghanistan, the United Nations refugee agency has said, with nearly 80,000 having returned so far this year.

      I don’t understand who needs this war. Definately not Pakistan.

      After they sold some ammunition to Ukraine, my oppinion about them improved.

      Ayo Trump here’s another war for you to stop. Maybe you can save Sharif’s life again, he’d really owe you after this one.

      Maybe Pakistan should have refrained from doing everything everything remotely possible to sabotage the coalitions efforts in Afghanistan back when the taliban were hiding in caves

      The Taliban won’t win. The Pakistan government won’t win. But the civilians in both countries will lose.

      An attack? On Ramadan? Unbelievable, I am sure the media will be sure to point that this is Islamophobic and hate-filled.

      Pakistan is probably doing a strategic blunder which gives short term gains and long term trouble.

      So is Pakistan just going to flatten the major cities and leave? Unlike US/USSR I doubt they are going to bother conquering the country, so guerilla tactics the Taliban does don’t really matter.

      Is the defense pact with Saudi Arabia helping them or are they fighting alone?

    14. Aggravating_Bus655 on

      Got it.

      So basically – chest thump on public tv, circulate stupid AI videos and video game cutscenes on social media, make (rather disturbing) claims of capturing imaginary enemy women pilots, make up shit about destroying the entire enemy airforce and then declare victory with a dedicated victory holiday every year.

      And then beg the IMF and asslick the US for funding a month later.

      I thought Afghanistan would know forever peace after US left…

      How Pakistan will bankrupt itself in this war

      – Pakistan carried out airstrikes (F-16s & JF-17s) on militant targets across the border in Afghanistan, bombing groups it historically supported/created.

      – The country is drowning in debt: >$134 billion external debt, interest payments exploding (+84% to $3.5B in recent years), 2.6 trillion PKR circular debt in power sector alone.

      – Modern air ops are insanely expensive: $25–30k per flight hour + munitions vs. Taliban mud-brick compounds costing ~$500 to rebuild.

      – Ground ops would be even worse: armored columns, supply convoys, helicopters (AH-1 Cobra, Mi-17), rapid wear in rough terrain.

      – Every soldier killed costs the state huge „shahada packages“ (10–20 million PKR + lifelong benefits per family), creating multibillion-rupee holes.

      – TTP retaliation keeps bleeding the military while foreign investment flees due to instability.

      – Meanwhile, domestic spending prioritizes mass surveillance and online censorship over basic services; citizens get crushed by taxes (e.g. 200k+ PKR activation tax on iPhones).

      – Historical parallels: Soviets bled dry in Afghanistan (15B rubles/year → economic collapse), US/NATO spent ~$8 trillion for nothing.

      – Taliban advantages: Pashtunwali code, porous 2,640 km border, ideological overlap with TTP, guerrilla resilience. Pakistan can’t just leave like superpowers did.

      – Bottom line: An endless, unaffordable attrition war against self-created enemies + corruption + inflation = path to state bankruptcy.

      It couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch.

      Especially after their 20 years of providing support and shelter for the Taliban and Al-Qaeda.

    20. CompanyLow8329 on

      From being the biggest enabler and supporter of the Taliban, to being at war with them. What an absolute ridiculous mess.

      Pakistan thought the Taliban would be difficult for India to control, that the Taliban would suppress the Pashtuns, and that the shared Islamic nationalism would unify them.

      All of this is just blowing up in their face, when they could have worked on a far better solution with the coalition.
