Re: Another suicide bomb blast kills 20 Pakistan commando forces
Well the soft approach clearly isnt working. You seem to suggest we just hand over the keys. Much of the institutions of state seem aligned with Islamist forces. Pakistan is the biggest terrorist concern in the world. That is the sad reality.
No one is talking about handing over anything. What is the core reason why the extremists have stepped up attacks against Pakistani people/military? Pakistan's alliance with the US on this war on terror. Before 2001, suicide bombings were never as common as you see them in the news these days. Islamabad was never under this threat.
US WILL vacate Afghanistan and it WILL turn its back on Pakistan. What will be left is an isolated Pakistan that cannot even think of allying with its religious guerrilla forces that had served as the cannon fodder of the many grand schemes of the GHQ.
Go ahead and use force and the blowback will be worse than the US has faced. The only difference will be the ability to return. America can pull its forces out of the Mideast, will Pakistan cede FATA, NWFP + Baluchistan? Absolutely brilliant.
