Why Pakistan will fall

Pakistan will one day cease to exist for one very good reason. It serves no globally useful purpose. Heck even the Taliban agree it s a useless construct. It produces nothing that can't be made better elsewhere. It is backward and incestuous. It has no real allies, no country would come to fight on Pakistan's behalf were it to be invaded by India on a massive scale.

Israel will flourish however, because it is overwhelmingly useful to the world. It gives us technology, medical advances, agricultural innovation. It produces things that are useful to the world. Even the Muslims who hate Israel need Isreal. Without Israel, where would they go? What would they do? The only sourde of agreement among the Arabs and Persians would be gone, and a full-scale Middle Eastern war would ensue, which would ultimately destroy Mecca.

Israel - useful, necessary. Pakistan - useless, dangerous. At least me and the Taliban agree on something.
