It is heartening to note that Pakistan and Afghanistan have joined hands to fight terrorism. Unfortunately, former Afghan President Hamid Karzai only relied on criticizing his allies and neighbors and miserably failed in taking any concrete measures for it country. The current Afghan president appears to be a person with a vision. The Afghan authorities should realize that Kabul and Islamabad are faced with the same threat. They have a common enemy. In such a situation, it is wise to use all our efforts to fight the enemy. The United States should try to cooperate with these two countries in their struggle against terrorism by not taking unnecessary step without taking the two sides into confidence as it might hamper the ongoing operations.
