Answer 2

Which one. The 19th century one or this one?

If you mean this one it started in 2004 when the Pakistani army entered Waziristan to flush out Taliban and Al Qaeda. The Pashtuns turned on the Pakistani army and allied with the Talibs.

The 19th century one was Britain trying to conquer the North West Frontier.
