I think it is time we start asking this thing from our political leaders. What have they done to improve the security and stability? Pakistan Armed Forces have done enough already. His perspective is correct from Defence point of view and Indians desperately want us out of Afghanistan......and you want this introward approach to florish?

Every terrorist in this world , whether Afghan, Arab, Chechen, Chinese, Somalian, Egyptian, Uzbek etc is present in Pakistan in large numbers have even have pockets of the country ceded to them by the Establishment. Pakistani awam has suffered tremendously due to foolish policies of khakis and Afghans or any other foreign govt will be foolish to trust these khakis.

Hiding OBL and Mullah Omar while arming the Taliban are unlikely tactics to achieve what the general claims to want.

It is strange that Afghan Defence Minister General Bismillah Khan Mohammadi meets the Army Chief General Ashfaq Pervez Kayani and not the Defence Minister of Pakistan. Is it simply a question of War and Piece where only the Army is concerned.
I wonder why there is a Defence Minister in Pakistan?

Was the Indian army chief's furious reaction connected to the Afghan, Pakistan military cooperation. Doesn't look coincidental to me.
