Pakistani commandos rescued 42 hostages on 10/11, who were held by militants inside the nation’s military headquarters. Pakistani military headquarters were attacked and taken over by the Taliban. The attack was the third by Taliban militants in Pakistan in a week, and it is ashamed for the Pakistani Army. It is more embarrassing for the Pakistani Army to lose their headquarter. It also proves that the Taliban is really growing stronger at a fast rate.
American military officials said that they were astonished that the militants could penetrate the high-security installation to the extent that they did. They are not aware of the growing Taliban, which they should. Americans are trapped inside the image that they had defeated Taliban with the help of NATO around 2001. However, they care less for Taliban until recent. The Taliban is today classified by security analysts as an "alternative government" in Afghanistan and many other regions in Middle East. They are equipped with strong weapons.
We should be alarmed.

ReplyDeleteYes, the world had underestimated the power and intelligence of the militants and insurgents, thous, we must pay the price.
This reminds me of the Vietcong taking over the US embassy in Saigon.
