ISI may see a vital Pakistani interest in getting the U.S. and NATO out of Afghanistan, and restoring the status quo ante of a Pakistani protectorate.

How's that again? Status quo ante what? The ISI doesn't control the Pashtuns and never did - rather the reverse, IMHO.

The whole thing is silly. If the SOB lives to be 120 I'd still want his sorry, wrinkled ass dragged out of his hole and his brains scattered on the rocks with a .45. If anyone breathing air on this earth thinks we're going to give up before that happens they know nothing of Americans.
