Pakistan finally wakes up on its own insurgency

WSJ story on how Pakistan now admits its own internal militant insurgencies problem is a bigger threat than India.

Hmmm.  About ten years and $10B in military aid too late.

No impact yet seen on troop positioning.  Pakistan has about 150k soldiers in the Taliban fight, with 100k in reserve.  350k keep a close eye on India to the south.

Experts say that the ISI (intell service) may be leaning this way, but the military still likes to use the militants as a tool against hated India.

America gives upwards of $2B a year in military aid to Pakistan.  No ultimatums issued by Team Obama--unlike in the case of Turkey.

The Pakistan Taliban kill about 1,000 Pakistanis every year since 2003.
