I more than agree but solely blaming the west for what ails Pakistan now is what I find hard to accept. After all creation of a new Pakhtoonistan is not something the west cares one way or the other but you definately need to. Anyway by carrying out the flawed agreement with the SWAT TTP further you are actually reducing the chances further of bringing them into the main stream.

It is ONLy the West that have to be blamed for all this mess.
Let me write it down in an chronolgical order for your better assimilation:
The Soviets want access to warm waters.
It does the following three things:
1. Attempted to take over afganistan!
2.To make it easier it unfolded the following actions:
-Fueled the concepts of Phuktoonistan (which already was a thorny issue between Pakistan and afghanistan)
-. Supported insurgency in balochistan.
Ofcourse it never wanted to get stuck in afghanistan due to pakistan after it took over the former.
So it had to get the balochs independent (with the concept of Greater Balochistan) and the NWFP to be under the afgan contraol(via Phuktoonistan isue)
The US counter the virus of Cummunism
How can the US kept quite at this. Oh thanks to the Cold War.
The US don't and should not fight the Soviest face to face ..so what does it do...it comes to us.
We get money, F-16s, stingers, support against india and Talibs are born.
We trained them with your money, your dollars and assitance.
We agree to sort the soviets out with your help. The slogan of JIHAD is raised, this JIHAD becomes HOLY as it has the US patronage!! People volunteer in flocks. Relgious organizations are funded to provide fuel in terms of men and material.
In turn what do we get....3 million rafugees, free flow of drugs, unchecked influx of illegal weapons and militancy.
And YOU...you did as you alweays had..the day the last Soviet crossed the border back into USSR you showed us the a** and ducked back.
Sensible people try to explain you that still there is lot to be done inside afghanistan..it has to be rehabilitated, those childern who have only seen war since the day they have borns needs to go to schools, those millions laying as refugees needs shelter and the right direction, but who cared.!!
They marry here, had childern, had their families on sides of the porous borders and then you come again , beating the drum of WOT!!!
You again flush them and all the f!lth comes inside Pakistan. The reasons, where should they go, under the ground or to the space?? And what about the older connections, both blood and tribal(thanks to your proxy war)
It was mentioned in the planning stages that kicking the talibs inside afganistan would fuel the insurgencies inside pakistan...bnut you gave a damn. We were told that we would be bombed to the Stone Age!!
And now when after throwing all the f!lth inside our land you again dare to balme us!! daring indeed!!
We have been fighting in Kashmir since the last 60 years but ever heard a sucide attack teher...generation of generations have been killed by the indian forces, but no sucide attacks! Why??
i'll tell you why..because it is not what a Muslim do!!period.
Now what next..gwadar.. oh ya gwadar..it pnches you..how can you let it bloom. How can you let China counter you heagmony??
So you again play there..thnks again.
And meanwhile thnks to india it wanted to reciprocat what was doen to it in kashmir and also wants to counter our strat depth by turning afghanistan agaisnst us.
And then you chose india as a counter-weight to china..what bad it could bring to you if india also fits in your larger game....
