Yes. Now start the real picture of TTP/govt dialogues, Now that elections in Afghanistan are over in a peaceful manner, they will settle down to real business of setting their country on path to progress. All the splinter groups of TTP, Al Qaeda etc., will be driven out of Torkham to play their own power games in Pakistan.. Nawaz Sharif is just buying time to get some respite from the tight schedule of priority jobs . If the talks fail, he has many excuses including the in fighting of splinter groups. If the talks are successful, he will blow the trumpet for next four years and will use this for next general elections( which chances are remote) The infighting of TTP splinter groups will not be confined to N. Waziristan or tribal areas but it will spill over to many cities in Pakistan where there are many Pakistan based political parties with a soft corner in their hearts for these militants.

No one is trust worthy in the black market. It is not for the first or the last time and will continue till the last man commits suicide. It is no one but Allah punishing the sinners.

Why does it need to stop? Do you belong to one of the groups. I say, "Keep killing, Boys. Allah is eagerly waiting to deal with you when you see him."
