(TTP) and its affiliates in Malakand and South Waziristan. "Dawn,"
reported the Pentagon spokesman's statement urging India to be
"transparent with Pakistan about its activities in Afghanistan." All

former Taliban officials ahead of International Conference in
London. Ambassador Holbrooke's statement that the U.S. will support
Taliban reintegration was also displayed prominently. "The News,"
reported that talks are underway between the NWFP administration and
the U.S. regarding massive hydroelectric power projects. Media

EDITORIALS/OPINIONS
Editorial: Weaving Peace, an editorial in the populist, often
sensational national English daily "The News" (cir. 55,000) (01/28)
"The many threads that when woven together make up the Afghan
conundrum come together today in London with the opening of the
conference hosted by the British. For the first time in many years
there is a concerted international effort to find a way out of war
and into peace.... At some point Afghanistan is going to have to be
handed back to the Afghans - and that has to include the Taliban.
Karzai is not a 'forever' figure and foreign troops are not there
forever either. The London conference is about honorable exits on
one side and dignified entrances on the other. Team Taliban are
probably deep in their briefing papers at this very moment."
Editorial: Taliban As Part Of An Afghan Solution, an editorial in
the country's premier business newspaper, "Business Recorder" (cir.
25,000) (01/28)
"The Western military leaders insist that talks can succeed only if
the allies are able to speak from a position of strength. This was
made clear by British Army Chief General Sir David Richards, CENTCOM
chief General David Petraeus and commander U.S. and NATO forces in
Afghanistan General Stanley McChrystal, who spoke ahead of the
conference in London. It remains to be seen if the Taliban are
willing to hold peace talks with Karzai and the allied powers. They
have, in the past, demanded an immediate return of the allied troops
from Afghanistan and a payment of full costs for rebuilding the
country as the minimum price for a deal. A lot of background
diplomatic activity has, however, been going on recently involving
Saudi Arabia and a number of other Gulf countries to bring the
Taliban to the peace talks."
Editorial: U.S. Agenda Has Been Followed A Lot, an editorial note in
the second-largest, nationalist Urdu daily "Nawa-i-Waqt" (cir.
150,000) (01/28)
"Addressing an American think tanks, the American Progress the U.S.
National Security Advisor James Jones said that American success in
Afghanistan is dependent upon Pakistan's resolve and cooperation in
the war against extremism.... The U.S. Security Advisor seems to be
worried more about Pakistan.... In Afghanistan American officials
are advising President Karzai to initiate dialogue with the Taliban
and extremist groups, but American authorities are pressing Pakistan
for accelerating the fight against extremists.... The Pakistan Army
has decided correctly that it will not launch a new military
operation for one year.... America should solve its problems in
Afghanistan itself and pave the way for the return of 3 million
Afghan refugees, who are the cause of disputes between the two
countries."
Editorial: Dialogue With Taliban: Get Prepared First, an editorial
in the leading mass circulation populist, often sensational Urdu
daily "Jang" (cir. 300,000) (01/28)
"The Karzai formula unveiled in the Istanbul Conference, which
necessitates the urgency to engage Taliban politically, reflects the
thinking of the U.S. and other foreign powers present in
Afghanistan, therefore it certainly has the backing of these
countries. But all the stakeholders need to thoroughly delve into
the modes to implement this formula and weigh the chances of its
success or failure. Any effort to divide the Afghan resistance
forces into the 'Bad Taliban' and 'Good Taliban' may lead to more
bloodshed in the country. Besides, the international community must
also take Pakistan and Iran on board because these two neighboring
countries are directly affected from any change in the internal
situation of Afghanistan."
Editorial: Indications Of Taliban's Coming To Power In Afghanistan,
an editorial in the popular rightist Urdu-language daily "Ausaf"
(cir. 10,000) (01/28)
"In the Istanbul Conference, the world powers have agreed to hold
negotiations with the Taliban. It is a clear manifestation that
Washington and its allies have finally reach the conclusion that
Taliban can no longer be ignored when it comes to stabilizing
Afghanistan. In this scenario, we will, once again, see the Taliban
at the helm of power in Afghanistan in near future. To withdraw its
forces from Afghanistan, Washington will badly need our help. The
fast-changing geo-political situation of Afghanistan has provided
Pakistan a golden chance to force the U.S. to help resolve the
Kashmir issue. Hence, the government should fully exploit this
much-awaited opportunity."
Editorial: Afghan Reconciliation, an editorial in the center-right
national English daily "The Nation" (cir. 20,000) (01/28)
"Whether it has Washington's blessings or not, Pakistan would have
to devise a plan of winning over the angry tribesmen that serves its
national interests. The U.S. would do well to honor its commitments
about development projects in FATA. It is close to four years when
President Bush first talked of reconstruction opportunity zones, but
still the U.S. Congress has not passed the required bill. If the
U.S. and Western allies are sincere in seeing Pakistan develop, they
must listen to its repeated calls for investment in the country and
provide it market access."
Editorial: Sound Advice, an editorial in the Karachi-based
center-left independent national English daily "Dawn" (cir. 55,000)
(01/28)
"Any kind of public accusations or public finger-pointing, quite
frankly, that does not serve any of us well. That doesn't mean we
won't have disagreements. But I hope that we can do that privately,
and not publicly. We could not agree more with Admiral Mike Mullen
and urge Pakistani, Indian and American officials to take note of
his comments.... Once again, unnecessary and unwanted - and perhaps
even self-defeating for the Americans. We are not suggesting that
Pakistani, Indian and American officials start doing everything in
secret and hide even more than they already do from the public.
Transparency and openness are foundational. But so is common sense,
and that is what seems to be lacking on occasion. Our advice: listen
to Admiral Mullen."
Editorial: Why Is India Building Tension?, an editorial in the
Islamabad-based rightist English daily "Pakistan Observer" (cir.
5,000) (01/28)
"We apprehend that India, in collusion with its Western mentors, was
on a collision path and bent upon doing some mischief. This was
evident from the recent statement of American Defence Secretary
Robert Gates in New Delhi about danger of action against Pakistan by
India if there was re-run of Mumbai like incidents in future. This
is highly regrettable as Pakistan has diverted its military sources
from the Eastern to the Western borders at the instance of the
United States and Western countries, which want presence of
Pakistani troops in good numbers on the Western front to make life
easier for their occupation troops in Afghanistan.... There are,
therefore, reasons to believe that India was gradually building
tension to put Pakistan under more pressure and this calls for a
comprehensive review of our military strategy and the need for a
diplomatic offensive to expose Indian designs."
Editorial: Indian Aggressiveness, an editorial in the center-right
national English daily "The Nation" (cir. 20,000) (01/28)
"It is time Pakistan took a clear cut and strong position on all the
legal and military infringements India is indulging in at will. The
dark shadow of U.S. support also looms behind these infractions of
India since the former has not said a word in protest to New Delhi
despite being a strategic partner of India's. Pakistan needs to also
put the U.S. on notice regarding India. Pakistan should take every
threatening move by India seriously as our history has shown India
never wastes an opportunity to undermine our existence. Nothing has
changed in the Indian psyche."
Editorial: Response To The Enemy, an editorial in the
second-largest, nationalist Urdu daily "Nawa-i-Waqt" (cir. 150,000)
(01/28)
"Indian designs against our security are not hidden. Under American
patronage it has already increased its military capability three
times more than us thus becoming a threat for our as well as
region's security.... The Indian military's repeated shelling on
the Line of Control is a link in the chain of events.... Being soft
to the enemy is tantamount to being killed by it. We should respond
to the enemy in the language it understands."
Editorial: Indian Firing On Pakistani Check-Posts, an editorial in
the center-right Urdu daily "Pakistan" (cir. 10,000) (01/28)
"America, Britain and other world powers should think over Indian
attitude and press India for implementing the UN resolutions on
Kashmir.... The Pakistan Army and the people cannot pay required
attention to the war against terrorism if their eastern border is
not peaceful."
Editorial: [India's] Violation Of The Working Boundary And Demands
Of The Situation, an editorial in the liberal Urdu daily "Express"
(cir. 25,000) (01/28)
"It is possible that the recent incidents of border violations [by
India] were the result of some misunderstanding. However, in the
current climate, with terrorists running rampant in the region and
wanting to foment a confrontation between the two countries, it is
imperative that both sides exercise caution.... Another aspect of
the working boundary's violation is that it could be the starting
point of a major adventure by India.... If the Indian government is
thinking of such an adventure, it should review its decision because
such an adventure by India would not remain limited. Such an
adventure can also backfire when the two countries in question are
armed with nuclear weapons. American officials -- who support Indian
policies and talk like Indians -- should also play a role in this
regard."
Editorial: India's Heinous Ambitions Are Dangerous For The World, an
editorial in the Lahore-based populist center-right Urdu daily
"Khabrain" (cir. 50,000) (01/28)
"Pakistan government should immediately inform the UN, China,
Britain, Russia and friendly Islamic states of India's dangerous and
heinous designs. Pakistan should inform the international community
that Indian ambitions could endanger the entire world. Pakistan
would be compelled to respond if India does not stop its provocative
acts, and once this happens, there could be a likelihood of a
nuclear war as well."
Editorial: India Should See Reason, an editorial in the Lahore-based
independent Urdu daily "Din" (circ. 5000) (01/28)
"If India does not change its track, its provocative acts [reference
to the shelling] and baseless allegations could trigger a war in the
region. In such a scenario, bilateral relations could take a
dangerous turn - leading 1.5 billion people of the region to end up
dead, hunger-stricken, or victims of radiation."
Opinion: Stinging Rebuke, an op-ed by M. Saeed Khalid in the
populist, often sensational national English daily "The News" (cir.
55,000) (01/28)
"By not giving a date for the completion of the withdrawal, Obama is
signaling to the Taliban that the final position would depend on the
outcome of efforts to reach a negotiated settlement in some kind of
power-sharing arrangement. If that goal remains unachievable, then
Obama may want to carry out a low-intensity war with a tolerable
level of losses to prevent the Taliban from overrunning the urban
centers, especially the provincial capitals and Kabul. Will 2010
bring a significant change in the Taliban's attitude to negotiations
with the U.S.? If their declaration to mark 30 years of
Afghanistan's invasion by the Soviets is an indicator, there can be
little hope for resolution of the conflict. The only way of
de-escalation in Afghanistan can be the reduction of foreign forces
and the interposing of a peacekeeping force with an international
mandate."
Opinion: Karzai's Bulky Baggage, an op-ed by I. M. Mohsin in the
center-right national English daily "The Nation" (cir. 20,000)
(01/28)
"Like other powers who got entangled with Af-Pak, due to the
geopolitical paradigm or otherwise, the U.S. cannot conquer this
area. Secretary Gates on his recent visit bemoaned the mistake made
by his country in the 1990 when it abandoned its 'partners' against
the Soviets; being flush with the excitement of becoming the 'only
superpower'. He assured the people of Pakistan, like Hillary Clinton
did on an earlier visit that the U.S. would stick around this time
in a friendly and helpful role. The game is now swinging towards
diplomacy, despite the fagade of expansion of the U.S. troops. Both
the sides are trying various tactics to get their pound of flesh.
While the U.S. is the superpower, the other party has stood by their
history/tradition. Peace and justice must team up. United States'
focus on India and China notwithstanding, only Pakistan can help the
U.S. out; more so if it has transparent governance."
Opinion: Cold And Blinkered In London, an op-ed by Syed Talat
Hussain in the Lahore-based liberal English language daily "Daily
Times" (cir. 10,000) (01/28)
"U.S. Defence Secretary Robert Gates' visit to India and Pakistan
last week was a classic study in contradictory behavior. He praised
India's role in Afghanistan and mouthed the usual rhetoric about
Pakistan being the epicenter of global terrorism.... At a general
level, no one was surprised at a U.S. diplomat massaging India's ego
and running down Pakistan. This has been the pattern for long. But
what was really surprising was the timing of it all: just when
Pakistan is poised to become the world's best bet to restore some
sanity to Afghanistan's madness, a top-ranking U.S. official chooses
to encourage Islamabad's traditional enemy to keep the heat on....
It is regrettable that all the world's supposed best brains cannot
comprehend the simple point that in Pakistan's desire to see
non-hostile borders with Afghanistan and India lies the key to
building consensus on lasting peace for Afghanistan. Powerful world
capitals continue to see this demand as a sinister plot to keep the
Taliban in Afghanistan's power play. It will be interesting to see
whether the outcome of the London Conference would depart from this
blinkered approach or not."
Opinion: A Growing Gulf, an op-ed by Tariq Fatemi in the

"The growing anti-American sentiments in Pakistan are not confined
to the parties; these are shared by many liberals. The Pakistani
leadership has demonstrated naivety in its dealings with the U.S.,
with many of our leaders convinced that the road to power in
Islamabad lies through Pennsylvania Avenue. They have therefore
ignored the counsel of their own professionals. Of course, this has
been more pronounced with the authoritarian rulers. It is therefore
not surprising that while Pakistan has 'served' America's interests
at critical times, forging strategic ties has been a difficult
exercise. In particular, the Americans have tended to take Pakistan
for granted.... Robert Gates wrote about the U.S. 'commitment to a
stable, long-term, strategic relationship, based on shared interests
and mutual respect that will continue to expand and deepen the
profile of Pakistan.' If that is the case then the U.S. must
appreciate Pakistan's security concerns on its eastern frontier and
help it overcome its debilitating energy shortage, by the sale of
civilian nuclear technology, of course with the necessary
safeguards. Pakistan, too, will have to reinforce its struggle
against the militants, pursue a dialogue with India and promote
peace and stability in Afghanistan."

Akram in the populist, often sensational national English daily "The
News" (cir. 55,000) (01/28)
"During U.S. Defence Secretary Gates' recent visit, we have again
heard the refrain of our Western friends that terrorism and the
Taliban, not India, pose an 'existential' threat to Pakistan. But
India's own actions and pronouncements belie these Western
assertions. For the past year, India has refused to resume
'composite dialogue' and has regularly threatened military action
against Pakistan in the event of another Mumbai-like incident....
Following the post-Mumbai situation and the emergence of India's
Cold Start strategy, Pakistan's armed forces have undertaken
extensive war games to counter this threat.... Numerous media
stories have mentioned the existence of U.S. plans to seize or
neutralize Pakistan's nuclear weapons in the event of their
threatened take over by Islamic radicals. These plans, if they
exist, could be executed also in the context of an Indo-Pakistan
conflict.... Despite the present counter-terrorism alliance with the
U.S., Pakistan needs to factor in these scenarios into its
deterrence posture and doctrine.... A clear and visible response by
Pakistan is essential to convince India, and the international
community, that Pakistan is determined to defend its independence,
sovereignty and territorial integrity and that 'cold start' could
end in a hot finish."
Opinion: Anger Sans Reason, an op-ed by I.A. Rehman in the
Karachi-based center-left independent national English daily "Dawn"
(cir. 55,000) (01/28)
"If earnest efforts to revive normal relations between India and
Pakistan are not mounted soon the demons of hate will push them
further away from each other.... An immediate objective before New
Delhi and Islamabad should be the reactivation of the hotline
between their top leaderships. They can have better success in
damage control than the bureaucrats who mostly specialize in stoking
up bitterness without reason."
