There is no power on earth that can undo Pakistan🇵🇰🇵🇰 ☝☝☝...

[@mzulqarnainshah6890]

he is spot on . its actually happening right now in 2020 exactly as he said

[@kiingAli]

Fascinating isn't it, he spoke for a very long time but concluded that the best course of action would be for the west to pull out and negotiate a form of government with the talibans with the help of pakistan. But, not once he mentioned that going into Afghanistan was a mistake in the first place. You can laugh at his stupidity all you want but i'm not going to blame him. Because if he accepts that it was a mistake, which he does but rather in-explicitly because explicitly accepting it would mean that all those dead people at the end of this 17 years of war is the doing of west. And thats no good if you intend to have a good nights sleep.

[@motivationultra01]

Well his suggestion proved right and they exact same thing has occured now after decades long war. Juet 2 years ago US pulled out, with help of Pakistan the taliban formed a government and are looking to develop thier country.

[@Insights-SocioLegal]

Imagine Afghanistan as neighbor to your developed country and then imagine what is at stake for Pakistan ...

[@saadkhanzada9962]

You are misguidedly bro, Afghanistan is a neighbour to China, but China is a rising superpower, all the problems linked to Afghanistan were created by our own dictators and rulers.

[@Insights-SocioLegal]

@@saadkhanzada9962 China did not face burnt. Terrain doesn't connect them. Look at us same people on the both side of borders. So they have relations and communications.

[@saadkhanzada9962]

@@Insights-SocioLegal well, you have to agree that our establishment was responsible for all our 80000 people killed on a foreign war on terror, had Musharaf not given USA air bases, there would be no suicide attacks, its a cold statement, but is true, we simply reaped what we sowed , we gave USA bases to kill Afghans, and we went numerous steps further we allowed USA strikes in our tribal areas and our tribal men turned against us, and became know as TTP.

[@Insights-SocioLegal]

@@saadkhanzada9962 there was no way out. Secondly as a neighbor we would have bore the brunt at any cost.

[@saadkhanzada9962]

@@Insights-SocioLegal if there was no way out, then the casualties we suffered were also absolutely justified.

after the big victory of afghan taliban with the help of the army of the hard country, lol. i m waiting for the second eddition with the tittle of "pakistan the hardest and mysterious country"

[@ravishingravi]

After the surrender to TLP and TTP, maybe we need third edition - Pakistan a failed state.

[@ayubsherani402]

I watch your seminar for learning english

[@hadihassan372]

He was right on the money in 2013

[@ramdharisinghdinkar1069]

According to his analysis, overthrow of government and hijacking of state of Pakistan can happen now because TLP which weaponizes barelavi ideology ( which is majority in Pakistan) has been given permission to contest elections officially. If they gain majority even in Punjab they would be in a position to fullfill all three requirements; 1) insurgency , 2) mass movement on the street, 3) army mutiny.

[@maquacr7014]

@Your Uncle's Mailmam Pakistan has two main factions of Sunnism - Barelvis and Deo-Bandis. Followers of Ahmed Raza Khan Barelvi are known as Barelvis.

[@maquacr7014]

@Your Uncle's Mailmam Lol. You probably asked burgers from DHA. They don't know this religious stuff. Pashtuns and half of Punjab is Deo-Bandi while Sindh and half of Punjab is Barelvi. Pakistan also has sizeable minority of Shias.

[@maquacr7014]

Also, each and every faction in Pakistan is a puppet of GHQ. Those which aren't are puppets of foreign intelligence agencies.
