"..With the Taleban having opened so many fronts, it will soon be impossible for the army to respond to the multiple threats it faces.

The army's rationale for doing nothing appears deeply irrational to many Pakistanis. 

The army still insists that India remains the major threat, so 80% of its forces are still aligned on the Indian border instead of defending the country against Taleban expansion. 

The army has also refused to respond to US and Nato demands to oust the Afghan Taleban leadership living on its soil."
