It's only a matter of time. Slight negligence in any of our military, intelligence or border forces and the entire rhetoric of Taliban terrorism will again fall in the lap of Pakistan.

There are already stories on Indian media about Afghan infiltration into Pakistan, which Pakistan denies. But how long can this last?

Looks like the days of ''convincing the world that Pakistan is safe'' are re-starting after a brief period of positivity and growth.
 
Given this is the age of social media where even Taliban has direct communication line with rest of the world, I highly doubt the rhetoric can be built without any substance.

We all know Indians have most active social media users and their messaging on Pakistani news is mostly negative and propaganda driven. However, to pass their propaganda as a narrative they would need any substantive evidence else the world would not be convinced. This isn't 90s where a handful of media outlets would cover the news and the words they would say would become truth as the other party never had access to public communication.

Having said that Pakistan should take this opportunity and promote its ongoing developments and peace/prosperity videos on news outlets. For example, many diplomatic people are currently being evacuated out of Kabul by Pakistan authorities (such as members of Danish embassy) but the world does not know about such stories. Its time Pakistan promotes and highlights their positive work so that such narratives or rhetoric are never built by any western or Indian media.

Don't listen to Indian media. Passing through a fenced, heavily guarded border is no joke. Moreover, it makes no sense for Taliban to cross over into Pakistan just when they have taken control of Kabul.
 
Pak was fine when the Taliban was ruling Afghanistan prior to 9/11. There is no reason for the Taliban to attack Pak if we leave them alone. The Indian media does not know the difference between the RAW backed Pakistani Taliban and the freedom fighters Afghan Taliban who have liberated their country from the American's. Has the India media ever reported anything good about Pakistan?? There is your answer.
 
Think a lot of chest-beating etc happening at the moment.

An openly hostile Govt to Pakistan in Kabul has been shown the door so we should be happy.
 
Please read this without usual hate with us
I see lot of people rejoicing in victory of Taliban, but biggest cost will be Probably paid by Pakistan with huge refugee crisis.
With bad economical situation can be made worst, with not having west in your sode
I think it's very important to have proper balance iwith relations with both parties, as role of Pakistan is very important
Unfortunately can Pakistan believe that Taliban will forgive them for being biggest supporters of west with war on them.
From indian point of view this is going to affect all the countries in region one way or other.

Can the Taliban forgive India for siding against them too? As I said there will be no massive influx of refugee's in Pak. When the Taliban were last ruling Afghanistan nothing like this happened. All the refugee's came after the Russian and American invasions. Obviously, you want the worst for Pakistan despite acting as a peace lover.

So you are telling me that having Taliban in the neighborhood and being best pals with them is more beneficial for Pakistan in its current situation?

I mean if you seriously believe that then obviously no point reasoning.

Best of a bad bunch scenario as they say.

At the very least they are less hostile than the hindu taliban next door.

Obviously Pakistan would much rather be bothered by Canada and Mexico but it needs to play the cards its dealt.
 
Hindu Taliban !
Ask how many non Hindus wants to migrate to other countries? In fear of so called hindu Talibans
In india yes there are some idiots do behave like that, and so does in other countries as well.

There are 100,000s of illegal immigrants to the west who are fearful of a futre in India.

The whole of Kashmir has suffered to an extent they want to secede.

Hindu Taliban recently bombed some trees in Pakistan too and their leader is constantly threating to isolate Pakistan on the international stage.

Now from a Pakistani pov who would you prefer as a neighbour? The whole of the subcontinent is a mess, there is no point pretending that we are europe and the Taliban is some aberation.

I feel some are hoping that this would happen.

My feeling is that it will happen but not to the extent that happened when India's friend invaded Afghanistan in the 80s and we should be able to deal with it.

Yes of course. The Taliban are far better for Pak then the Ghani government. The Taliban will not allow Indian terrorism in Afghanistan to attack Pak from their soil. You know nothing about the Taliban other then what the world and your own media reports. They will be much more of a danger to India then Pakistan which is why your media is screaming like madmen.

Much to India's disappointment there has been no massive influx of refugee's in to Pakistan. If anything Afghan refugee's in Pak are returning to Afghanistan. Now you tell me why do you fear and hate the Taliban so much when they have thus far never harmed India?
