2007-10-20 18:39  Pakistan-ekstremister - en stat i staten
Benazir Bhutto kommer sent - kanskje for sent til å redde et minimum av legalt politisk liv i Pakistan. Salafistene utgjør allerede en stat i staten flere steder. De driver selvjustis og har sine folk innen politi og hær. Bhutto antydet at det v ar disse som sørget for at lyset gikk langs ruten hennes kolonne fulgte torsdag kveld, og telefonen også falt ut. "In the Pakistani (secret) agencies and in the army there are so many people who are not secular, who are fundamentalists and will help a su …

2007-10-19 22:14  A history of trouble in the NW Frontier
By Graham Stewart (THE TIMES, 20/10/07): Events in Pakistan have taken yet another dreadful turn for the worse with the suicide bomb attacks on Benazir Bhutto s homecoming rally. Ms Bhutto has been quick to accuse supporters of the late military ruler Mohammad Zia ul-Haq of complicity. Others suspect al-Qaeda. For any Pakistani politician the equation seems unappealingly simple. Attacking the terror fastnesses in Waziristan and the other border regions along the old North West Frontier courts pe …

Tanken är väl som Asia Times artikel nedan säger att organisera ett fredligt maktövertagande till en civil väst-vänlig regering i Pakistan. Och förhoppningsvis förhindra att landet kollapsar eller faller ner i ett inbördeskrig. Något som verkar ganska avlägset just nu. Bhutto: Faderns bödlar bakom blodbad Benazirs Bhuttos återkomst till Pakistan väntas förändra det politiska landskapet i Pakistan. Envisa rykten gör gällande att Bhutto ska få dela makten efter parlamentsvalet med Musharraf som st …

Cross-posted on Registan.net. It is no secret that there really is no substitute for "boots on the ground." Indeed, one of the primary tenets of 4GW is that there is a keen necessity for culturally sensitive warriors who can properly mingle with and interpret local society which is one of the primary reasons I'm such a big fan of the Army's Human Terrain System, or HTS. More to the point, drawing lessons from the "surge" in Baghdad, we can see the critical importance of having enough troops to h …
