My Way News - Pakistan warns Afghanistan after pact with India
My Way News reports: "The strategic partnership signed by Afghan President Hamid Karzai on a visit to India on Tuesday added to concerns in Islamabad that New Delhi was increasing its influence on Pakistan's western flank. The deal came at a sensitive time for Islamabad, which is facing renewed accusations by U.S. and Afghan officials of collusion with militants in attacks on Afghan soil."
My Way News - Afghans rally in Kabul, demand NATO troops leave
My Way News reports: "Hundreds of people marched through the streets of the Afghan capital on Thursday, demanding the immediate withdrawal of international military forces ahead of the 10th anniversary of the U.S. invasion."
Comment: So what will really happen when the U.S. pulls out? Afghanistan will be destabilized by a proxy war between dueling militias. Scary stuff when you consider that both India and Pakistan have nuclear weapons and it wouldn't take much for them to start fighting each other again. And then there's the question of what Iran will do once the U.S. pulls out. The U.S. may soon go, but that does not mean that there will be peace in Afghanistan.
