#2 Amid bitter, ~~yes bitter, did I mention bitter?~~ ......recriminatory exchanges

Meaningless ~~coordinated~~ token jesture designed for media consumption. Probably getting ready to rotate back to the States anyway to receive awards and 'one time cash bonus' for exceptional performance. Next please.

#3 It's a bit more than that, I think. The ISI and CIA have been in a pretty deadly contest which has been heating up for a while - c.f. Raymond Davis but also a series of outings/attacks on people who were identified to the Pakistani government as CIA-affiliated. The ISI has an advantage in that it has only one objective: get the US out of the country.

#4 I agree - time for some ISI deaths. How many ISAF deaths are blood on ISI hands, even if indirectly?

#6 IMO the worst-case scenarios as per a total US-PAK breakdown in relations would be ...

> PAK covertly giving advanced NUKE-WMDS MILTECHS to the MilTerrs Groups for use in TerrOps.
> PAK UNILATER INITIATES REGIONAL NUCLEAR? WAR AGZ INDIA, which will involve Pak's "big brother" = Ally + BFF CHINA.

To wit,

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > PAKISTAN TROOPS ALONG LOC PUT ON HIGH ALERT. Face-off agz INDIA.

India = Indjuh has repor NOT responded in kind vee putting its LOC forces on alert.

* SAME > PAKISTAN DARES INDIA TO BREACH BORDERS.

* SAME > WW3, IRAN, PAKISTAN, + NUCLEAR TERRORISM.

* SAME > PAKISTAN SEEKS SOLACE IN THE KREMLIN. Zardari to visit Dimitri [Vlad?] in Moscow.

ARTIC = Moscow would benefit from closer RUSSO-PAK RELATIONS via having an "inside track" to US [ + in lessor China's] goings-on in AFPAK, RUSSIA WOULD LIKE TAIJIKISTAN TO ALLOW IT TO PLACE 3000 ARMED BORDER GUARDS ON TAIJIK'S BORDERS WID AFGHANISTAN.

* SAME > BIN LADEN RAID: ARMED PAK ARMY UNITS REACHED ABBOTTABAD COMPOUND 15 MINUTES AFTER US SEALS DEPARTED.
