December 26, 2008: Pakistan has moved two brigades to the Line of Control (which divides Pakistani and Indian portions of Kashmir). No reason given, although the Pakistanis may want to help keep the Islamic terrorists from crossing into India. That would be nice.

The Pakistanis continue military operations against the Taliban along the Afghan border, but things have slowed down because of the Winter weather. Pro-Taliban tribal gangs continue to threaten U.S./NATO truck routes into Afghanistan. This is seen more as an extortion scam, than an attempt to cut NATO supplies lines. The groups attacking the truck traffic are asking for more money to stop the attacks. Doesn't sound like, as some pundits have speculated, that the attacks are retaliation for the many successful missile attacks on terrorist leaders recently.

The Pakistani government continues its crackdown on illegal banking. These operations are used to finance terrorist groups, but in this case, the Pakistanis are more interested in the illegal movement of billions of dollars out of the country. This occurred as the Pakistani economy got hit with the effects (smaller export orders) of the current world-wide recession. The illegal movement of such large amounts of foreign currency makes it more difficult for the government to finance imports, and get foreign aid. On the other hand, the wealthy families that own the exported billions are getting a higher rate of return overseas, and avoid the risk of any of their money being seized (for unpaid taxes or criminal activity.) The endemic corruption in Pakistan makes it difficult to run a business, or an economy, efficiently.

Pakistan has sent counter-terror officials to Saudi Arabia and Sri Lanka, to see if successful counter-terror methods used there could be useful against the Taliban and al Qaeda in Pakistan. There may be some useful techniques that can be borrowed, but Pakistans situation is quite different from that in Saudi Arabia or Sri Lanka. Pakistan, for example, has a weaker and more divided government, and is faced with a much larger and aggressive terrorist threat. Despite the Mumbai attacks and the Islamic terrorism along the Afghan border (and occasional attacks in non-tribal areas) the government refuses to shut down all the "charities" and other organizations that belong to the terrorist groups. The Pakistanis get away with this because most of them believe that their nuclear arsenal stops India from attacking, or doing anything, to coerce a real crackdown on the Pakistani terrorists groups

there is no such thing as islamic terrorists
that is an oxymoron
and pakistan is doing whatever it can to end terrorism in pakistan and india has still not provided any evidence for the mumbai attacks so it cannot take any action on that
hope india would have dealt with the situation more maturely [that might never happen]
some people believe pakistan supports terrorism although they are forgetting how many terrorists have surrendered and how many terrorists are being abolished in the tribal areas everyday.
plz know your facts before u post something like this

Useless thread period. Look at the title of the thread and look what have you posted starting from movement of Pakistani troops to financial scam to situation in FATA to threat to NATO supply lines...........blah blah. This seems to written by someone suffering from some acute attention disorder where the individual can't concentrate on something for more than a while (I dont remember the exact name of the disorder). To put it succinctly....... absolute rubbish....... :blah: :crazy:

Moscow, you and other indian members never fail to disappoint. You guys show promise at the start for being balanced and reasonable but after a while, you give in to your compulsive tempatation to bash and denigrate Pakistan......... One more propagandist added to the list.........great going by changing gears from subtle innuendo to crude bashing.....:lol:
