    They are launching attacks in Pakistan because the taliban, being essentially a pashtun supremacy group, wants the all the land that are majority pashtun ie the land in northern Pakistan where the most pashtuns live. The current border between Pakistan and Afghanistan was made by the British in 1893 and is quite literally a line drawn on a map
