I completely disagree with this draft paper submitted by Muhammad Taimur. From my experience interacting with Pakistanis and Afghans emailing me via Ariane Brito News and Afghanistan UK Bridge Magazine, is that there are groups in Pakistan like the Muslim Brotherhood, who have assisted local groups in Afghanistan and India ( namely when India blocked the butchering of cows and mostly Indian Muslims got hit)with a different agenda.
These interests are monopolised by groups wanted in India, Pakistan and Afghanistan, and these are historical interests that led to many Pakistani joining the incipient Al Qaeda and conducting terrorist attacks in India and Pakistan prior to the 9/11.
These groups actions have conditioned Pakistan military intervention in Afghanistan and is not beneficial to the healing of the Afghan people . The nation itself needs healing and Pakistan support to the Afghan conflict has been historically conditioned by the problems Pakistan has at the borders between the two countries and in his own territory.
I feel that the Afghan war has not impacted in Pakistan so much as the Pakistan intervention , affiliated to border tribalism, has affected the Afghan conflict. The matter of the refugees is of concern because in the case of Somali refugees in Pakistan , many when arriving in London were already radicalised, so I am wondering if the radicalisation of refugees is not being made at ultra sonic speed.
Perhaps other perspective I would point is that Pakistan is not strange to conflict, Kashmir disputed conflict with India is a perfect example, so how neutral has been Pakistan and India in their intervention in Afghanistan and if we can say , not neutral at all, then how negative was this?
I feel that the Afghan conflict proved to be a profitable market to Pakistan and India military industry and profit was made by these countries and by China as well , so these countries should be kept away from Afghanistan.
Amnesty International also has reported extensively on Pakistan, India and American troops illegal detentions, arrests and torture of innocent citizens, of their lack of support to farmers who are forced to join armed groups like Indians joined ISIS and Afghans joined Iraq terrorist groups, so again , how can we say that Pakistan and India Governments really care about the people and the war in Afghanistan had an impact on them when there were no humanitarian interests only profitable military armament interests and ambition to achieve an international protagonist status of a higher order?
