Trying to annex Afghan territory is a bad idea for multiple reasons.
1) The military cost will be not worth the hassel
2) If you want a uniting factor in Afghanistan its this, invade their territory and they have perfect excuse to wage war. 20+ years of Nato bombing didnt change their ways what do you think will change here.
What should be done is establish a red line, if you host terrorists and they attack us we hold you responsible and will retaliate accordingly. In the meantime seal off the Afghan border, it will cost lots of $ but its better to start soon than keep watching terrorism grow. Ask your allues in Europe and the US to fund it, PDM 2.0 are after all the answer to all of Paks problems.
Also strong alliances need to be established with factions in Afghanistan, it must be mutual respectful and trust worthy to grow economic ties and improve on the human suffering on both sides. Its important to start a process of literacy and education so the next generation want to pick up the pen rather than the AK47 to fight.
It may also necessary to move some forces from the eastern border to the western to beef up security.
Problem with politicians is they want quick results, these things are seldom quick to resolve they can take decades if the right focus and posture is established.
