Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Terrorism Watch

All my life extremists like his have been allowed to operate freely in Pakistan.
Because the provincial police force is ill-equipped to keep the peace, and the writ of the KP and Baloch governments is non-existent in the frontier regions.

This all boils down to poor governance.

Of course that doesn't get you votes, so the provincial governments blame the army because that's a popular narrative and Pakistanis are retarded so they lap it up.

Bombing happens, LEA personnel die, people blame the army, rinse and repeat.

Army is blamed because it created the whole environment and infrastructure that trained all these militants. Army then proved incapable of controlling them. Hence army is held rightfully responsible for this whole mess.

You are conveniently ignoring the part where Army itself is the reason that Jihadi groups exist in Pakistan.

The Army worked with the US and other foreign powers to train and arm the 'Mujahideen' and later on other groups.

The provincial governments while incompetent had no say in this.

Fake bugti only appears in the airport in Quetta and DHA quetta compared to that clown KPK police and Provincial Government are 10000 times competent it is because of their round the clock ops that close to 400 namak harams of TTP in one group while other smaller groups have fled to Balochistan of course KPK police can do better but they can only do so much against enemy which have thermal sight M16 M249 and NATO military grade Marksmen/Sniper rifle while KPK police only now gets drones in decent quantity but their firearms are still either bulky ancient G3/old Type 56 handmedowns from the Army/FC and Dragunov Sniper (Chinese Old ver) while only select units have M4 rifles

AI summary from this article : https://tribune.com.pk/story/1471971/youm-e-shuhada-sacrifices-slain-k-p-cops-hailed

The Peshawar and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) police have borne the brunt of the region's fight against terrorism. Between 1970 and 2025, 2,330 KP police personnel laid down their lives, with 1,961 of these fallen heroes making the ultimate sacrifice after 2007. [1, 2]
In recent years, the toll on the force has been devastating. Between 2023 and mid-2026, over 580 officers were martyred across the province. [1]
    • The 2023 Police Lines Tragedy: A catastrophic suicide bombing on January 30, 2023, targeted the Police Lines mosque in Peshawar, resulting in 84 deaths—primarily police officers—and over 200 injuries. [1, 2]
    • High-Ranking Casualties: The fallen include senior officials, among them SSPs, SPs, and DSPs, alongside a staggering number of frontline constables. [1]
    • Recent Incidents: Officers continue to face grave threats in and around the city, including casualties from Improvised Explosive Device (IED) attacks, targeted shootings, and explosives disposal operations. [1, 2]
The provincial government observes August 4 as Police Martyrs' Day (Youm-e-Shuhada) to honor the sacrifices of these officers. [1]

What's the difference between a jehadi militia and the pashtun militias that attacked Pakistan in the 1940s, 50s and 60s
Here is the difference for jahils like you :

Before 1980​

Peshawar, historically the capital of the North-West Frontier region, saw very little of what would today be classified as "terrorism" in the modern insurgent/militant sense.

  • 1930 – Qissa Khwani Bazaar massacre: The most notable violent incident often referenced from this era, though it's categorized differently — it was British colonial troops firing on unarmed Pashtun freedom fighters/protesters, not a militant terrorist attack in the contemporary sense.
  • Through the 1950s–1970s, Peshawar was largely peaceful by regional standards, functioning as a provincial administrative and trading hub near the Afghan border. There is no substantial record of organized terrorist campaigns targeting the city in this period.

Turning point: 1979–1980​

The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan (December 1979) fundamentally changed Peshawar's security situation. The city became a frontline hub for Afghan refugees, mujahideen logistics, and CIA/ISI-backed arms pipelines — introducing large flows of weapons and armed groups into the region for the first time.

After 1980 — by broad period​

1980s–1990s: Peshawar functioned mainly as a staging ground rather than a target — sporadic violence linked to Afghan factional rivalries and refugee-camp tensions, but not yet a systematic domestic terrorism campaign.

2000s (post-2001): Terrorism in Pakistan is believed to have started intensifying around 2000, with the Pakistan military launching offensives against terrorist groups in the tribal areas after 2001. Notable Peshawar-area incidents include:

  • December 21, 2007: A suicide bomber killed at least 50 people in a mosque near Peshawar.
  • 2009: Blasts in Lahore and Peshawar killed 58 and wounded more than 150. A market bombing in 2009 killed at least 117 people. Wikipedia
2010s — peak period: Pakistan experienced its largest number of terrorist attacks in 2010, according to the National Counter Terrorism Authority. Peshawar was hit repeatedly:

  • May 13 & 20, 2011: Two suicide bombers killed 80 paramilitary trainees near Peshawar, and a suicide bomber attacked a US Consulate vehicle in Peshawar, killing one and wounding 10, both claimed by the TTP.
  • 2013: An attack on a Shia mosque killed at least 14 people, and a suicide bombing of a church killed at least 75. Wikipedia
  • December 16, 2014 — Army Public School massacre: Six TTP-affiliated gunmen attacked the Army Public School in Peshawar, killing 149 people including 132 schoolchildren, making it one of the world's deadliest school massacres. This remains the single deadliest attack in the city's modern history and triggered Pakistan's National Action Plan against extremism. Wikipedia
  • 2015: Another attack on a Shia mosque occurred in Peshawar. Wikipedia
Mid-2010s decline: Terrorist attacks in Pakistan significantly declined from 2014 onward, largely attributed to Operation Zarb-e-Azb, a major military offensive launched in June 2014 against the TTP and allied groups, which is described as a turning point in Pakistan's war on terrorism. Peshawar saw a relative lull through the late 2010s.

2020s — resurgence: Violence rose again after the Taliban's 2021 return to power in Afghanistan.

  • March 4, 2022: Islamic State–Khorasan Province attacked a Shia mosque in Qissa Khwani Bazaar, Peshawar, killing at least 63 people and injuring 196 — the deadliest attack in Pakistan since 2018 at that point.
  • January 30, 2023: A suicide bomber, disguised as a police officer, detonated inside a mosque within a high-security police compound in Peshawar, killing 84 people (mostly police officers) and injuring 217 — one of the deadliest attacks on Pakistani security forces in years.
  • Since 2023, Peshawar has continued seeing frequent smaller-scale attacks — bombings on police checkpoints, convoys, and security compounds — as documented in ongoing incident trackers.
  • 2025: A prominent local militant leader, Munir Shakir (founder of Lashkar-e-Islam), was killed in a bomb attack in Peshawar in March, and multiple bomb attacks continued targeting police vehicles and security complexes in the city through the year.
Hence the people correctly blame the army for turning their neighborhoods, villages and cities into a war-zone. No-one in KP asked or voted for this.

The army is blamed because they prop up fanatic Mullahs who they now that once he will get a decent number of followers will become rogue but they keep repeating it cause force of habit The last mullah they propped of was Saad Rizvi of TLP who they had to put down themselves after he straight up threatend to seize Islamabad to kick out the "infidel French and US ambassador" and seize the Embassy as Maal E Ghanimat

Yeahhhhhhhh


During the 1940s–1980s, Afghan attacks against Pakistan were primarily driven by disputes over the Durand Line and Kabul's support for Pashtunistan separatists. This era involved cross-border incursions, covert funding of tribal uprisings, and retaliatory state actions rather than full-scale conventional wars.

Early Border Skirmishes & Pashtunistan (1940s–1950s)1947: Following the partition of British India, Afghanistan became the only UN member to vote against Pakistan's admission, laying claim to the Pashtun-majority areas along the Durand Line.

September 1950: Pakistan repelled an attack 30 miles northeast of Chaman in Balochistan, where Pakistan claimed regular Afghan troops and Pashtun tribesmen crossed the border. Afghanistan denied state involvement, claiming it was only local tribes advocating for an independent Pashtunistan.

Diplomatic Severance & Proxy Conflicts (1960s)1960–1961: Afghanistan escalated its proxy campaign by actively arming and supporting Pashtun separatists within Pakistan to disrupt the border region.

1961: Heavy skirmishes broke out between the two countries, resulting in Pakistan closing its consulate in Kandahar, severing diplomatic relations, and temporarily cutting off Afghan transit trade routes through the port of Karachi.Daoud Khan's Resurgence

(1973–1978)1973: After Mohammed Daoud Khan seized power in Afghanistan, he aggressively revived the "Pashtunistan" issue. Backed by Soviet influence, his administration provided safe havens and weaponry to militants and armed separatists staging cross-border attacks against the Pakistani state.Soviet Invasion & Mujahideen Era

(1979–1980s)1979–1980: Following the December 1979 Soviet invasion, the nature of cross-border violence shifted completely. Attacks transitioned into a guerrilla war fought primarily by the Afghan Mujahideen operating out of safe bases in Pakistan against the Soviet-backed Afghan government.A detailed historical breakdown of the political and military origins of these border conflicts is available on the Yale Journal of International Affairs. Historical timelines of the broader Soviet-Afghan conflict that defined the late 1970s and 1980s can be tracked via the PBS News archive.
 
I grew up in Karachi as the fanatic bloodlust and carnage of Lashkar E Jhangvi which was spawned from Sipah E Sahaba which itself was propped up by once again by the one and only Lumber 1
LEJ slaughtered so many people in my homecity just because they were of another sect or had a different belief/Custom many of its terrorists eventually wound up and joined either the TTP or Al Qaeda

Maybe you can ask the AI to teach you the difference between a few border skirmishes versus fifty years of mass terrorism post-1980 that has taken the lives of tens of thousands of Pakistanis and caused hundreds of billions worth of economic damage. And all self-inflicted.
