TTP : The Hamas of Pakistan

Lt Gen Satish Dua ( R) and I had a very interesting discussion on how TTP is slowly but steadily becoming the Hamas of Pakistan. Already there are clear indications that the Pakistan Army is not fully in control of the area and it is suffering casualties on a daily basis. The Pashtun areas are largely out of the grip of the Pakistan government. The end result will be a jelly state of Pakistan with an unstable western border and a hard eastern border.
