Assessment is overall to the point. Pakistan as some say is 52nd state of US. And US policy is still very much continuation of cold-war. It is not clear whether US policy now with Pakistan is a compulsion or continuation of cold war.
As some say, US support of Israel in Middle East is to keep check on Arab. They support Pakis to keep Indians in check.
Current Iran's covert support to Balouch freedom struggle and now world Commies are openly supporting Balouch struggle, definitely reminds 1972. It seems like repetition of those old good days. But which part of Pakistan will separate this time. I think NWFP or Gilgit.
Jihadi support for survival for Mushy is dangerous bet. As it will make rest of world insecure and especially India will go into deep crisis.
