Today's Dawn.com has a Wiki Leak ticker about how a few Gulf Arab states' rich people sponsor 'charity' and certain a brand of Islam (Deobandi/Wahabbi). It is said in that report that southern Punjab (Bahalpur etc) have madrassahs were there is some kind of tiered system to recruit young people for various causes. One of the causes is for sacrifice for Islam. The going rate is Rs. 500,000 to be paid to the parents of the young deads; that's less than $20k PPP adjusted. No much for any foreign or local agencies to pay.
And that has been happening in broad day light. And happening in the heartland of Pakistan.
Any investigative journalist can get to the bottom of this and prove it as truth or lies.
Blame foreigners all we want but it is our own tolerance of the jihadi factories which makes it possible for such attacks like in Karachi. I am pretty sure foreign agencies don't recruit agents from their own countries to do suicide bombings on routine.
Pakistan really needs to make peace with India. That is the bottom line if we want Pakistan to survive. Even 500 more free JF-17 will be destroyed if there is internal support/tolerance for these religious fundamentalist.
I can understand that Pakistani security agencies are truly over-stretched. They can't open all the fronts at the same time. They are indeed giving great sacrifices. But the Parliament of Pakistan is not over-stretched and the Parliament needs to radically redirect changes in foreign policy.
