Coming under 'immense pressure' from the defence establishments, the Pakistan government has withdrawn its decision to place the Inter Services Intelligence under civilian control, leading newspapers reported on Monday.
This is their weak point, that we need to target. Pressing Pakistan to isolate and surround the ISI is one of the best things that the international community can do right now. We have to keep the pressure on for this. Whatever problems some claim prevent us from isolating Pak, clearly isolating of ISI is very doable.
Since Afghanistan's Karzai is our most outspoken friend, willing to speak much more forthrightly on Pak than our meek Manmohan, we need to get him to loudly and repeatedly holler that ISI must be brought under civilian control. This will keep the issue firmly on the minds of the Americans & international community, and the pressure firmly on Pak. I'm sure there are plenty of voices in Pak who'd like to see ISI under civilian control, such as MQM's Altaf Hussein, or Baluchi and Sindhi leaders. Now that Pak Army has switched to hiding behind the election of a civilian govt, then likewise we need to adapt by calling for civilian oversight of ISI.
