PAF needed a morale boost after getting thrashed by the Indian Air Force. Who better than the Taliban? As long as they don't make the mistake of invading Afghanistan, they should be fine. Doubt any 23mm are going to take down F16s

What do you mean "start"?
Biden was planning ahead when he left all that military equipment behind in 2021.
3-D Chess my friends. Sharp as a tack.

Saudi announced they would add their air force to strikes on the Taliban if Pakistan requested help under their mutual-defense pact.

Will make for an interesting theater of operations.



We have Paki-Saudi on one side vs. Israel-India-Taliban on the other.

Once the Pakis destroy the Afghan air force, then Trump can make a friendly offer to buy the Bagram Airfield.

Listening to the comments from them, India is to Pakistan as Israel is to Many Western countries. Gotta have someone to blame for everything.

And to think the Pakistani ISS secretly propped up and sheltered Taliban leadership for a long stretch of the Global War on Terror.

I suppose they thought they could be a bulwark against worse options like ISIS.




Pakistan encouraged the Tabliban as a bulwark to India, and to build their "strategic depth". (Link)
Terrible, self destructive strategy.


Yes, Pakistan created Taliban to fight against India.
Now Taliban and India are friends and the Taliban hates Pakistan.

What a weird world politics is.

Coincidentally, I had an outing with some Indian-American clients earlier this month. Great guys. From Mississippi if you believe that. Big MAGA types. So funny to hear them go off on Pakis, Afghans, Russians, etc.




I am surprised to hear Indians saying anything negative against the Russians. There is an old camaraderie there. Maybe they were telling you what you wanted to hear. Same with Afghans. Indians and Afghans are in generally very friendly. Indians don't like the Chinese and Bangladeshis.

Pakis, no one likes them.

Odds Pakistan nukes the Taliban?

Would Afghanistan look any different after Armageddon? It might smell better I guess.

It would be better for sure, the culture is a cancer. The only way to start over is to erase it.

Any possibility this situation could be used as political cover to allow America to fly over Saudi airspace? I'm very skeptical about all of this blowing up at the same time

Maybe the Paki's can destroy some of that US equipment that Biden left behind. Win-Win situation all the way around.

well then why are parking so much stuff in Israel? But this could get interesting when everyone also starts launching drones every which way

Saudis are not with Pakis. They are somewhat neutral. Pakis claim Saudis are with them because they are cultural slaves of the Arabs. Saudis have great relations with India.

The Afghans and the Pakistanis have been increasingly fighting over the last few months. Reports are that they're now in a full-scare war with the Taliban launching an "offensive" into Pakistan. Will be interesting to see if they're able to use our equipment successfully against the US-equipped Pakistanis.



Chickens coming home to roost for Pakistan!
