Thread Name: BS: Pakistan and the Taliban
Subject: RE: BS: Pakistan and the Taliban
Musharraf may or may not be a dictator. Whether he is or not, he is not in complete control. Pakistan is a Muslim country, a rather orthodox one. In the western tribal lands (Waziristan) the government writ is often ignored. When the Afghan war started, there were some serious doubts about the loyalty of some Pakistani security agencies. Is that enough?
