The World Is Not Flat : outlookindia.com: "Pakistan is home to 14 million Pashtoons and draws more than a fifth of its army from among them. It can't afford to become part of a generalised onslaught upon them. It is the failure of the US and NATO to eliminate the Taliban and pacify Afghanistan that has forced Musharraf to back off from the campaign against the Taliban and opt for a policy of containment.

In an apparent reference to India's agreement with the IAEA and the consensus that is to be obtained at the Nuclear Suppliers Group, Einhorn said there were indeed other elements of the deal that will have to fall in place before the accord fully fructifies."
