Pak is a failed State and we will pay the price

The Islamic Republic of Pakistan was formed under the hypothesis that it would be a home land for all Muslims. More than 50 years of its existence and after losing E Bengal what has Jinnah’s dream turned into?• A complete sham of a political and administrative establishment• An on going battle in Kashmir• A stamp of a rouge nation• Kindergarten for all terror groups and drug lords• A near to collapse economy• An army which has it’s own mind and acts with its own whims and fancies• A broken state - North West Frontier Province, Balochistan and the Muhajir seem not very interested in joining the mainstream.• Human rights of minorities and women abysmally low• No infrastructure • No clear leadership - Its leaders today can garner a national consensus only on two issues – Kashmir and Democracy. The latter they did achieve but still trying to find its roots; we just hope it thrives, because a prosperous Pakistan is good for everyone especially India.• And to top it all religious fundamentalism In the above scenario the survival of Pakistan is hugely depended on the fight for Kashmir and creating as much instability in India as possible. The day they declare Kashmir to be a part of India, the original theory of an Islamic state crashes and all mayhem breaks lose. Fortunately for Pakistan, in recent times a handful of Indian Muslims have been sympathetic to their beliefs for various reasons. Also the concept of brotherhood rather than nation hood seems to have a hypnotic effect on young misguided Muslims.To add to the nexus we have Al-Qaeda or any of its sister organisation ready to execute the will of the ISI in return for funds and safe heaven.The strikes in Bombay may or may not have the blessing of the state of Pakistan. Both are equally dangerous, but a terror movement from the soil of Pakistan on who the state (political establishment) has no control is a much dangerous scenario.In both cases the army or specifically the ISI must have had some control, and they have every reason (instability in India and its allies) to support such low cost ops to attain max damage to enemy life, property, economy and world wide publicity.In coming days and with India’s economic power increasing, so will its influence in the world around. This would make Pakistani establishments more and more uneasy since neither diplomatic or a conventional warfare will attain there goal.The only warfare left out is covert ops like these executed, by well organised and trained youth who wont spill the beans and still sacrifice their life’s. The point is that the battle has to be fought also on the psychologically front along with military deterrence. Wining the hearts and minds of the coming generations of Muslims is vital. Alienating them as a community won’t work in any ones favour. Also we need moderate Muslim voices to be heard not only condemning such acts but also giving their community a clear direction to the future ahead and more important to be tolerant to other beliefs and faiths. Since there is no doubt that nations like India, Israel, US, UK, Canada, Russia, France, Germany and even China will always be on the Islamic terror list, the only way ahead for these nations (militarily) is better sharing of intelligence and resources to fight this global penance. End of the day a failed Pakistan is a public nuisance to everyone in the world
