There are Pakistanis who have no love for the Taliban, including 4 brigades who are itching to jump into that fight. However, I can understand from their perspective that would start a bigger war than they could handle. I happen to disagree with that but that is their country and that is their decision on just how much they want to fight.

It is their civilians who are under constant threat from the Taliban, not ours in the West. So, they want to end that threat one way or the other. They have a chosen a way that I happen to disagree with but then soldiers only know one way to peace from war - through victory.
