#1 It's not surprising. I was in the 'Stain recently. Everything is for sale right now. More so than was six years ago, when I last visited. You could buy a mullah to deliver a generic fatwa then. Now, you can buy a bloody suicide bomber.

It's cheaper too. An AK 47 for $70, an IED for a little more than twice that. And it's like a garage sale of bureaucrats and cops. Judges are somehow the only upstanding citizens right now. Maybe they're being watched closely. Imran cannot control anything right now; people are really wondering how it's running at all. The Baloch rebels and others are tearing them new ones, and they're actually begging Turkey to send some guys over. Our guess is, the ISIS will try to come in through that route.

I predict, in the coming decade the disintegration of the 'Stain is imminent.

#3 I can't presume so much. Beyond the creation of 3-4 separate states and intense muslim calvinball I can't say. But their military-theocracy combine was the only thing keeping things together. It's failing now, thanks to foreign pressure and the need to act mature for their several sugar daddies. We're doing our best too.

#4 Scratch that last. We can do much better.

#5 Is there such a thing as quarantine for entire nations?

#6 Totally separate - before I forget, and should I depart this video of tears before my fingertips can reach my keyboard, here's a link to something I think you'll enjoy and derive much benefit from - an amazing Dante expert at Columbia who delivers the best explication I've ever seen of the Divine Comedy. (I wanted to link to it a couple of months ago when it was a propos if things you said at the time, but I missed my chance and the window closed).

Enjoy.
Best,
L.
