Afghans First time Protest For Kashmiris

Good thought but they should first help the progressives in Afghanistan in removing the Taliban from A'stan.

By murdering 30% of the Pakhtun population? Fact check. Taliban enjoy widespread support amongst Pashtuns in Afghanistan. Or else Taliban would have have managed to sustain the fight for 17 years against a superpower and the meanest fighting machine on earth - the NATO.

Just because a sizable percentage supports the Taliban, it doesn't mean that the Taliban are good for A'stan. By that logic, the Solidarity Party of Afghanistan ( a socialist movement ) has sizable support among the educated and enlightened Afghans and therefore the SPA should be in government.

A lot of NATO, especially the American bit, is mostly about air power and missiles. During the 2003 Iraq invasion the defending Iraqis fought back the invaders fiercely.

The point here to keep in mind is Taliban have widespread support. Let's not just find excuse in "evil ISI". That they are good/bad is not for outsiders to impose. Would you like if what is good [according to Trump] being imposed on India? Bottom line. Taliban were removed by foreign imposition and the post 2001 Afghan government is a puppet kept in power by USA. Once US leaves the 'forced imposition' will make space for native reality of Afghanistan to take root. Thus some form of status quo ante US intervention will come in play again. What you see in Afghanistan post 2001 was abberation of the natural order in that country.

How so? Taliban have significant traction among the population. SPA is a fringe of a fringe. How can that entitle it to rule Afghanistan?
