They are doing okay to protect their country. Extremists should be finished.
Extreme elements just want to part away into religious boundaries and want Muslims not to have any kind of good relation-ship with other people belonging to different religions.
Yep, like with the Christians, and with the Hindus in India, and the Kashmir issue will still remain unresolved. I don't see massacres and abuse between Hindus and Muslims helping anyone.
A Pakistan with Taliban ties now would serve only to inflame relations with India and China (which is already giving hints it wants to lessen its involvement in the country), and because of US involvement in Afghanistan spread into open conflict between Pakistan and the US, and make the causalities from drone strikes look like a pin prick. Economically such a conflict would drive out investment and tourism from Pakistan (investors and tourists are already scared enough with the hotel attacks and the like).
