Missing the point

Normally you'd expect the CounterTerrorism blog to have a good amount of common-sense and dispense with a) bias and b) ridiculous conclusions, but apparently not.

In an article bordering on the ludicrous, here's a post on the CT blog (link), saying, I-kid-you-not, that peace in Kashmir will help stabilize Pakistan :

Pakistani-Indian rapprochement could be a tremendous aid to the Pakistani leadership in their efforts to stabilize their deteriorating country. If the Mumbai attacks have made that impossible, then the Mumbai terror attacks may prove to be one of the most consequential terrorist attacks in history.

Stabilizing Pakistan requires action on the Kashmir front, in terms of peace? Well, here's news for the chaps at CT, Kashmir is peaceful, by a massive scale as compared to Pakistan - and compared to itself way back in the tumultous 1990s. Its Pakistan that has all those bomb-attacks, Sharia-law and Pakistani army and government ceding space to the Taliban (maybe not the army, but.)

There is one thing, and one thing only which can stabilize Pakistan - and that is sustained, comprehensive action against the LeT, JeM, Taliban, former ISI employees who are training fundamentalist and the Al Qaeda (note the order).
