Pakistan's border maneouvres anger Afghans!
Read this At the end of the day if Pakistan want to fence and mine their border it's their own business and no-one else's!(I wish we'd do the same in Britain!)Let's not forget that in the last two years the Pakistan Army has lost more than 3000 soldiers killed in action fighting against the Taliban and Al-Qaeda on their border and many more wounded!-By creating a permanent,fenced border it might force the insurgents to stand and fight in Afghanistan instead of fleeing across the border into the relative safety of Pakistan's mountain towns and villages after every battle!Also it will hopefully disrupt if not totally break their supply lines and starve them of equipment and ammunition.The conflict on the border has been bloody and long,our history books are full of graphic accounts of battles in the Hindu Kush and surrounding mountains,let's hope that this new border fence will work and end the bloodshed along that infamous landmark for good!
