Mr. Qazi, after the Afghan war with the Soviets, the US left Afghanistan and did not even bother about it. People like you complained that the US had abandoned Afghanistan. This time, the US has not abandoned Afghanistan and you are still complaining.

Should US leave Afghanistan and let it be run over by Taliban again? Is that your request in your article? Of course, it would be very convenient for Pakistan since it will be able to reacquire its strategic depth. Paksitan`s ruling of Afghanistan by proxy doesnt matter to you, but if the US rules Afghanistan by proxy, it brings out your selective outrage.

Re: # 1

Mr. Ranjit! US is leaving Afghanistan and leaving NATO forces to clean up the mess left by them. Though I agree with you on the front that I dont see what Mr. Qazi is trying to say in this article.

India has been traning Afghan students in India itself.

Even is your outlandish claim were true, the world would think India trains them in IT (Information Technology), and not IT (International Terrorism). That honor is entirely yours, and for once, no one in India would mind that.

Uncle Taliban aayeingey or tum logoan ka game bajayein gey.

Fortunately, the kind among which the Taliban would thrive separated from us almost 60 years back. This statement rings true in Pakistan, considering the way the Taliban have taken over some parts of Waziristan and are running an Islamic state there.
