#2 Could this signal a green light for the Pakistani Army to eliminate rogue elements like the TTP and BLA to secure the CPEC? Meanwhile, India takes small steps toward joining the BRI through a warming of relations with Afghanistan?

#4 As Pakistan faces pressure from this new emerging axis of evil, will the proud Punjabi concede and relinquish his sovereignty? Or will the blood of Maharaja Ranjit Singh coursing through his veins prompt him to take a dangerous yet righteous stand?

#3 India's feting of Taliban is driven not by rational self-interest but by a desire to create trouble and terrorism within Pakistan. In this dangerous environment decisions Pakistan will make, will determine the course of human history.
