To surge or not to Surge- in Afghanistan:-5

The seventh thing to do is to convey in certain terms to the Government and the Armed forces of Pakistan that any plan or attack on the United States and its allies with links to them will be dealt with accordingly. We all know that Pakistan is concerned about Indian Infiltration in Afghanistan affairs and Pakistan does not like the fact that they have become marginalized in that country due to the support of India and America to the Northern alliance but Afghanistan is nobody’s fiefdom and it should be made clear that support of Taliban factions by various Pakistan entities is not welcome.

If Pakistan wants to be player in Afghanistan or if it is waiting that as soon as the NATO and American forces leave that country, they will be able to bring back the Taliban Government in Afghanistan, then they should be told that the games have now changed and they will have to play by the new rules, lest they want to jeopardize the American Aid.

Irrespective of how much Anti-American there is prevailing in Pakistan, it should not be a substitute of blanket American Support. Pakistan instead of playing favorites in Afghanistan should deal with its own Baluchistan and the Taliban faction that is trying to derail the government there and also the rampant corruption (not acknowledged by government officials) and the provision of necessities of its own people.

Here I would like to emphasize that Pakistan and its people have been too much obsessed with India since independence and there whole concentration is on India even if it can’t provide food and other necessities to its people. If the people don’t want to see what they really need in their lives, then it is their problem, but they should not be allowed to destabilize other countries.
