After the Soviet Afghan war ended , pakistan decided to use Strategic Depth on it's western neighbour and Unconventional Warfare on it's Eastern neighbour . You Reap what you Sow
-
Pakistan is lucky to have wise and honest military people. They have safely invested Pakistani money in Papa John's pizza franchise, real estate in Canada, London, Dubai, and an island near Australia. Long live the Pakistani Establishment.

I corrected my several historical facts through this podcast. A gem of a podcast. And it's too revealing that Faqir of happi that corporated insurgencies in Pakistan have a road after his name..

To correct you, the budget is not in trillion dollars it's in billion dollars. Wesy , Bhai you are doing amazing work. I watch your program like people watch Money heist with full of Zeist.

These two made lt clear that things can never be normal between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Correction. The Afghan war didn't create Pakistan's deep state. Pakistan military state was present at the creation in 1947. The war fortified the military state. This is a Jihadi state within a state. The Jihadi state is a state of its own with its own economic sector. Military generals ensure that soldiers of Punjab are well-fed. They are paid by the American tax-payers via lenders from the I.M.F. They are not accountable to anyone except to the Americans. If push comes to shove, all the military generals defeated in all wars could be obliterated via drone strikes. Thanks to Artificial Intelligence. Hope lies with the A.I. Not in the Junkyard created for the degenerates now dwelling in Punjab.
