yes! napak fauj could be clean by pak taliban and impose a shariet of hanging gardens, long beards,no education,no school ,minar of heads for sake of their soaring islam.
In Qurran Allah says that these people says that we are doing ISLAH,and doing FISAD for this sake.
Did RASOOL ALLAH(SAWW) impose that kind of shariet in MECCA???

The so called "deal" is not a political decision, instead it is a military strategy concocted by napak fouj. When napak fouj started invading citizens of pakistan and started destroying their property and killing their children, the military strategists of the citizens against rogue army decided to stretch the napak fouj, which is a very typical move of guerella warfare. Initially napak fouj was concentrated only around waziristan, but when citizens of pakistan implemented their strategy, it made the fouj stretch from chamman to chitral. It made napak fouji sitting ducks being ambushed by citizens at their will. By isolating the swat from the conflict through this "peace" deal, napak fouj has managed to reduce its stretch. But this arrangement is artificial and extremely fragile., because the burai ki jar - amrika - is still sitting next door. As military startegists say "peace is the interim period between two wars" - the citizens are also fortifying their positions for upcoming final conflict. It doesn't end here; it starts from here.
