When Karzai becomes a Maliki, it's very unlikely that he would accept American prescriptions on the Durand line. Now is the time for America to bear down on the Afghans, to accept the Durand line, for it would also bestow on America the benefit of mollifying the Pakistanis & nudge them into yanking support for Taliban.
The lands to the east of the Durand line will remain under Pakistani control no matter what. Afghanistan can only benefit from removing Pakistani suspicions regarding the sanctity of the Durand line.
My 2 cents.
