Why are the Taliban and Al-Qaeda hiding in the tribal areas of Pakistan?
There are three main reasons why Al-Qaeda and the Taliban are hiding in Pakistan:1) Local Support: In numerous areas where Al-Qaeda and the Taliban operate, they are seen as rightly-guided individuals. Their ideologies and views, while separate to the mainstream have legitimacy since they advocate religious views that many Pakistanis in the Waziristan region agree with. They also are fighting the Americans, which is something that gains them some support as well. No local leader has ever repudiated the Taliban or Al-Qaeda.2) Protection by Pakistani Politics: Pakistan has number of internal concerns which "take precedence" over reclaiming territory from the militants. Its army, while powerful, is not equipped to maintain a long term guerrilla warfare against the Taliban. However, they have no interest in allowing foreign armies invade to solve the problem since that would be a violation of Pakistani sovereignty. In this way, without actually supporting them, the Pakistani government has allowed these Islamist Terrorist/Paramilitary organizations to remain in Waziristan.3) Difficulty of the Terrain: The terrain in the Waziristan region is very mountainous and difficult to travel, this makes hiding and resisting much easier than it would be on an open plain.
