Militants Overtake India as Top Threat, Says Pakistan's ISI

I would not put too much in what US says - as far as US and Pakistani interests are concerned, "Things Change" has been the US line - it will continue like that because Pakistan relations with the US have no foundational basis.


If it is true that there is now a institutional realization that India is not the primary concern - it is a good thing - but note that the statement does not say that Islamist motivations for extremist terrorism is now the primary threat - it only says "terrorism" is now a primary threat.

This statement will only serve to confuse people and leave the ISI open to charges that it is hedging it's bets -- I mean after all, what are the motivations of the "terorists"? What kind of IDEOLOGY is motivating them? Who is funding them (look at the chanda boxes outside the masajid) ? Who is allowing the propagandists to spread this ideology? What legal mechanisms have been crafted to prevent the spread of this idology, attitudes and behaviour?


I think too much is being made of this statement -- and it is a set up, one the ISI and the Fauj will soon come to regret,as the Majlis will not and the Judiciary will not (not mention the MEDIA), support the logic behind this statement.

Agree with you. Don't know what is the intention behind this exactly. However, the world has taken it as an attempt to reduce image deficit to get aid.

Pata nahi yeh government or kitna giryegi humien. Inki har government mien Pakistan neechay he gaya hai.

Yeah, it can be clearly seen when a fire cracker goes off anywhere inside in India, within first 30 secs, the finger is pointed towards Pakistan. That happens not due to Pakistan obsession, but just for fun.

Agreed India has no plans for attacking Pakistan for now, but still its majority of armed forces are stationed at Pak-Indo borders and within striking distance at a very short notice, thus Pakistan has no right to think India as a threat or as an enemy.

Pakistan has obsession with Kashmir not India.

Only if you had a feudal system and a party called PPP.

Unfortunately, 47, 71 and 2002 speaks otherwise. Most unfortunate fact is that these dates are not centuries old so that we may think that India has changed.

Thank You PPP, enemies of Pakistan appreciate you.

the world has taken it as an attempt to reduce image deficit to get aid.

Thank you PPP - soon the world will ask, and is one hundred percentr right to ask, for the substance of this policy - you watch, PPP will bring up the canard of "interference in internal affairs" -- then under greater pressure to produce, a crisis with the FAUJ will MANUFACTURED, it will be claimed that "Ci vilains" are not being allowed to play "their role" - the world will point fingers at ISI and FAUJ.


Americans own one set of "politicians", Saudi and English run the other set (Nawaz) - the people of Pakistan look on in bewilderment, while Islamist motivated terror enables the balkanization of Pakistan -thank you, PPP and it's unique understanding of "democracy" (vote for us, we rob you better than anyone else).

They both are the same.

 

[khurasaan1]

But ISI should be expert on home country so who is top threat to Pakistan ?

stillINDIA

 

[rafay321]

They both are the same.

Not for us or the rest of the world. It is disputed territory. divided by LOc not an international border.

 

[mughaljee]

according to this article,
what we should do now.?

 

[rafay321]

^^ Think India as a friend and wait till they attack us.

even 1999, 2001, 2008 speak otherwise, these dates are also not centuries old, so we conclude that even pakistan has not changed

No body is asking you to think otherwise. If it comes to Kashmir, Pakistan has not and will not change.

India has always been in favor of peace, we were the first to invite Pakistan for talks on ceasefire, today huge number of Pakistani soldiers are fighting Taliban in the interior of Pakistan, only because India has assured them of no aggression also the number of troops positioned at LoC has fallen by significant numbers in the recent years, about the blasts, everybody knows that terrorists from Pakistan were involved in majority of attacks in India not to forget mumbai,WHEN WE RESTRAINED OURSELVES EVEN AFTER PARLIAMENT ATTACKS, AND MUMBAI ATTACKS, WHEN THE WHOLE WORLD WAS COAXING US TO ATTACK PAKISTAN, SO WHATS THE POINT OF THINKING THAT INDIA WOULD SOMEDAY ATTACK PAKISTAN

Sorry, can't buy the idea of India always wanting peace, its the opposite.

Pakistan is fighting the taliban as per its own rules and flexibility and India is not doing any aggression to just give us some room, rather it is not doing it due to its own economic reasons as well as due to uncle sam and for now there is no bone of contention, if something arises, within days we can move those troops stationed in FATA towards the Indian border.

There has been no troops reductions at LOC, there has been troop reductions from the occupational forces inside Kashmir not LOC. Troops level at LOC is same or increased.

If Pakistan has been involved in bomb blasts in India, then India has not been a saint either, it has done the same also. Plus, get your self updated, as per the recent Indian investigations about the bomb attacks in recent years in India, majority of the bomb attacks blamed on Pakistan, LeT & other Kashmiri groups now has been linked to Hindu extremist terrorist groups. Check Indian Defence section, you may find the thread discussing the same.

Parliament attacks was made up, as India wanted to use the opportunity created by 9/11. How can Pakistanis go from all the way from Pakistan, into India upto Dehli, get weapons, reach the Indian parliament in the Indian Capital which should be highly guarded especially after 9/11 and carry out their attack. Absurd claim.

And as for Mumbai, don't want to get into argument, but its also fulled with many ambiguities, black holes which needs to be filled to get a clear picture of who did it and why.

As for India not attacking, as said, it had its own reasons, internal & external, had India attacked, we would have responded as required.

Well you never know about future, who will attack who, but since India will be having superiority in future, it would likely try to subdue Pakistan for its hegemonic ambitions, it even may involve militarily steps.
