Hardly.
This was orchestrated by the very people who killed the wife of the Pakistani president.
Impetus is on both sides to cooperate against a common enemy, terrorist Islamism.
Yes, and they haven’t done anything about bringing the assassins for justice because there’s a clear divide between the civilian government on one side and the army, the ISI and the Islamists/terrorists on the other. The government controls nothing in Pakistan - it is but a facade behind which everyone else does what they want.
It will be easier for all concerned if Zardari privately tells Condoleeza Rice that he has no control over Pakistan and can do nothing about it. He should also have no problems if the US and India decide to do the Pakistani government’s job of reigning in the military and the ISI for the Pakistani government.
In other words, the Pakistani government surrenders control of the military and the ISI to the Americans. It is the only option for a “future” Pakistan. If not, and if they continue to take this stance that “we are in charge, and our military are good people who have no hand in these attacks and are completely capable of defending Pakistan” then the argument would be “where were these military and ISI when the attacks were being planned? if they can protect Pakistan from India, are they unable to or unwilling to protect it from the islamist outfits?”
Either the government will surrender its military and the ISI, or the government will take Pakistan and its military and its ISI and all its terrorists and all its civilians down with it.
You do realize that in this climate no lender will be willing to lend Pakistan any money. That in itself will sink Pakistan in a matter of months.
