Let’s recall our memories of a speech of a senior Pak Army official that he delivered as the chief guest at a military educational institution in Rawalpindi on India’s Republic Day in 2014, asserting that India poses no greater threat to Pakistan but extremism/terrorism does.
The reasons of split between Rawalpindi and Banigala, leading to Imran Khan’s ouster from power remain a mystery to many while it is an established fact that Rawalpindi and Aabpara, jointly, paved Imran Khan’s way to the power in the first place.

While many will disagree with us, we have spent months discussing the situation in Afghanistan, and these statements don’t track with the on-ground reality. We’ve also clearly said that the force that would replace the Taliban in Afghanistan will be more brutal than any terror group the world has seen thus far.

We fully believe those that are advocating for the creation of such an area are either misinformed, lack the proper knowledge or are conspiring to ceded Pakistani territory to terrorists.
The Insiders host, Syed Khalid Muhammad, takes a few moments to discuss what is happening on the Pak-Afghan border and the situation in Afghanistan. Khalid speaks in relative detail about the reasons for the Taliban is unable to remove or restrain the Tehreek-e-Taliban (TTP) cross-border attacks against Pakistan, sharing insight on what would happen if the TTP were expelled and what the potential next moves are for the Islamic State – Khorasan Province.
