#1 We have some leverage over the Pakistanis and that is all the billions of dollars we send them every year. We don't seem to be using it very well.

#2 Recently there was some speculation here about what the Paks were up to by nailing one of their Pakiban buddies. Considered in the context of this article, it may be they're trying to buy some street cred with the US so State will warn India off....

#4 Subjectively speaking, IMO AFPAK IS SYMBOLIC OF THE LARGER OR GREATER US-VS.-ISLAMISTS BATTLE FOR EURASIA, espec ANTI-RADICALIST/EXTREMIST CONTROL OF ASIA'S NUKES + OTHER ADVANCED WEAPONS [NBC-CBRNE, etc.].

Iff you can't dev your own Nukes, andor the lead time to do so is costs-, time-inhibitive vee other vital priorities or agendums, NEXT BEST THING PRAGMATICALLY FOR THE MILTERRS = TANGOS IS TO FORCIBLY TAKE OVER SOMEONE ELSE'S [Russia-China-Indjuh, etc].

Again, Year 2010-2020/2025 > LT ECON TRUBLED + GEOPOL TRUBLED USA VERSUS NEWLY NUKULAAR RADICAL ISLAM, ETAL. MILTERR GROUPS.

E.g. GUAM-WESTPAC > IOW ECON TRUBLED GEOPOL "DECLINING"? USA VS. "RISING CHINA" VS. RISING NUCLEAR ISLAMISM???
