I). There is no need to have such an indepth research for this issue only for CSS.
ii). Taliban are not the only persons who are manipulating the religion, most of the time many people do so..

iii). Ideology is not too same, the things may go back to takfiri doctrine who was being propagated by Syed Qutb and followed by Abdullah Azzam, Osama etc however, there are lot of variations from this doctrine.

iv). No, there is not only the demographic differences, their objectives and end requirement are not the same as well as their relations with Pakistan cannot be same. The Afghan Talibans are having interests and stakes at Afghanistan and they are not a sort of nuisance for us, but those in our country are having direct links with Pakistan and having varied issues with our government.

v). Yes there was some discussions on amnesty linked to amnesty proposed by Afghan Government to Taliban. .... It is debatable if they are our ally or not, further dear there is no need to mix Afghan Talibans and Pakistani Talibans, it will not be prudent to out rightly term them our allies.

vi). Watchful control! A wishful thinking, Pakistan originated, developed and nurtured Afghan Talibans but at the end of day they were out of Pakistan's control, so it is out of question to say that there can be some watchful control over them.

Deterrence, Dialogue and Development….
At first, we should deter the threat posed by the anti-Pakistan Taliban with stern hands by establishing the writ of Government in tribal areas
Second step, engage the Taliban who are willing to have a dialogue process and convince them to go in a right way instead of having unconstitutional means for implementation of their ideology
Third step, As these areas are lacking in infrastructure development, ie hospitals, schools, road, job opportunities, Rozs, Inclusion of these frustrated groups in mainstream politics…
Only way to establish long term peace can be established by winning hearts and minds of the local people.
This is the way how we must establish our ideas…

vii). To some extent, these points are valid to be taken in the examination paper.
