the whole military needs to do the ISSB test all over again, but this time very strictly.

How will the ISSB test illustrate anything?

People are not going around with labels stating they are extremist sympathisers - you can only catch them if there is a massive monitoring and vetting program in place throughout their careers. Given that we are looking at over 1.5 million active and reserve military members, plus millions more retired/dismissed individuals, plus the civilian staff employed in various defence organizations, can you imagine the resources and manpower required to monitor all of these people?

He was court martialed, which suggests system had taken action against such people already. But is not psychological test part of tests you need to go through to be commando?

He was court martialled for fighting with a superior or something like that.

Point is the sensible ones said on day 1 that such attack is not possible without inside help, but the other few.... still people are posting threads here on PDF discussing if Ajmal Kasab is a pakistani!!!

I thought ISSB included psychological test as well? Maybe no?

And Agnostic Muslim, I think any step should be taken to ensure the safety of Pakistanis. If part of our own Military/Intelligence Agency are Taliban sympathizers, what it to us then?

Only officers go through ISSB not ncos.

Also he was court martialed and was sent to CMH as a mental patient.

SSG-N, this could explain the tactics used by the terrorists.

Mind telling us how those "Religious fanatics" get funded??.. now don't come up with "Saudi Arabia" as your excuse.. SA doesn't gain any strategic or geoPolitical benefit from destabilizing Pakistan, rather on the contrary..

So mind telling us how this "huge" network of "internal religious fanatics" is being funded??

I disagree, KSA is the biggest exporter of Voilent Wahabi Ideology in the world. The Saudi Petro Dollars have unleashed huge miseries on the muslim world in the last 60 years. The house of Faisal made a deal with the Zealots of Wahabism where as they can export their ideology to the rest of muslim world leaving the royals alone. KSA is funding terrorism in Pakistan, its purpose is not to defeat Pakistan but keep those fanatics engaged so they forget about unleashing their wrath on KSA. Besides Wahabis have deeply penetrated the armed forces and intelligence apparatus of Pakistan thus further reducing our ability.
Having said that KSA is not the only patron of these extremists. When every god damn intelligence agency is present in a region, you can not tell things apart.
Asia Times Saleem Shahzad did make some grim and dangerous revelations about the status of militant penetration in NAVY. As a result he is missing since sunday. Pakistan must come to terms with itself and develop a comprehensive strategy to counter current threat.

Pakistan Army denies it vigorously but his 313 Brigade had its foot print all over PNS Mehran attack. It seems as if the militants have inside help all along.
