The international community is in agreement to bring peace in Afghanistan
by creating a “win win” situation for all stakeholders. While Pakistan has
already conveyed its possible role in post-Afghanistan war scenario, it is not
preparing itself to address the onslaught of extremism likely to re-emerge in
the country. While the earlier rulers have not done well in containing
extremism, the present regime too does not merit appreciation. Pakistan may
win the current phase of the ongoing war being a member of a global team,
but the second phase in the post-Afghanistan war scenario sometime after
2015 would be more intense and challenging because of the emerging nexus
between Punjab-based terrorist groups Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP),
criminal gangs including drugs mafia and al Qaeda. If the current trends of
governance continue over the next two to three years, the country could face
anarchy. Pakistan, therefore, should put its house in order by making and
implementing comprehensive domestic and foreign policies. It was time the
practice of delayed plans and delayed responses was abandoned. Meanwhile,
the international community should also realize that without its long term
economic support to cash strapped Pakistan and Afghanistan, the ongoing
war on terror would be fruitless.
