Disputed border

This source and the fact that Afghanistan not recognizing the Durand Line as its international border with Pakistan is enough to mention "disputed border".

There are Islamist insurgents on both sides of the porous and disputed border...[1]

We report things in Wikipedia as they are. If Pakistan feels that Durand Line is legitimate that doesn't mean it is no longer a disputed border.--Mirwais Hotak (talk) 22:02, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

durand line

the controversy over the Durand Line is much older but unfortunately no third party has had a look into it. whether it is a frontier or border between the two neighboring countries or it has no value after the collapse of British colonial rule. some questions rise in our minds which may kindly be answered: i)were the people of Afghanistan taken in confidence when the agreement was signed with British rulers? ii)was this agreement provisional or permanent? iii)what is the total area of land which was included in British India after the agreement? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 182.183.175.17 (talk) 06:18, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
