Hope there is further split in the Taliban Ranks.
Hope brave Afghan Pashtuns realise that food for family and education are more important than guns, bullets, RPGs and roadside bombs and Pakistan has been using Afghanistan's reliance on the Khyber pass as part of a money making scheme.

Former Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) director general (DG) Lt Gen (r) Hamid Gul, was died on Saturday night due to brain haemorrhage as a result of low blood pressure in Murree, was laid to rest on Sunday.The funeral prayer was attended by a large number of people and important personalities including Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Raheel Sharif.
According to a Reuters report, tributes that poured in on Sunday for Gul after his death are expected to infuriate Pakistan’s neighbours after a career spent promoting Islamic militancy in India and Afghanistan.
“(Prime Minister) Nawaz Sharif has expressed his heartfelt condolences over the sad demise of Hamid Gul,” the ruling party’s media office said on Twitter. “The prime minister prayed eternal peace for the departed soul and said that may God bless the deceased.”
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) legislator Arif Alvi tweeted that Gul had died on Saturday night of a brain haemorrhage at age 79 and called him “a great man”.
The tributes will irk Afghanistan and India, who saw Gul as Pakistan’s most senior and vocal proponent of militancy in their territory.
Gul worked closely with US and Saudi officials to strengthen Afghan fighters against the Soviet military when he headed the feared military intelligence agency, ISI, from 1987 to 1989. Some of those fighters later joined the Taliban insurgency.
Towards the end of his posting, officials began diverting men and guns from the Afghan war towards budding militant groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba, founded in 1990 as a separatist movement in Kashmir.
After Gul retired, he frequently went on television to defend the Taliban and Kashmiri militants and blame a Jewish conspiracy for the September 11, 2001, attacks on the United States.
His death has already elicited harsh responses from Afghan officials, with the former deputy foreign minister tweeting that the “real” Mullah Omar has died, a reference to his role in the creation of the Taliban.
