[Peace-discuss] The war between the U.S. & Pakistan

[David Green]

The events surrounding Mr. Baradar's arrest have been the subject of debate 
inside military and intelligence circles for months. Some details are still 
murky - and others vigorously denied by some American intelligence officials in 
Washington. But the account offered in Islamabad highlights Pakistan's policy in 
Afghanistan: retaining decisive influence over the Taliban, thwarting archenemy 
India, and putting Pakistan in a position to shape Afghanistan's postwar 
political order.
