It's not always what it seems, so beware. The ongoing conflict with the Taliban on our Western front presents an excellent opportunity for those who have suffered significant losses in the past two years. Who lost the most public trust? Who is trying to regain what has been lost? The Taliban was created to be dependent on the Pakistani establishment from its inception. So why are both parties suddenly so hostile towards each other? They started disturbances immediately after the overthrow of Imran Khan but were relatively quiet when he was the Prime Minister.
On the other hand, the 'establishment' lost a lot of public trust over their handling of the last election. Therefore, it is essential to think analytically and ask ourselves, who stands to gain from this conflict with the Taliban? This conflict is a golden opportunity for all the visible and invisible parties to divert people's attention from the last election and make gains from the outcome. As always, there are collateral damages. Who are those likely collateral damages? Keep your fingers crossed.
