[DAWN] WHATEVER you say about Pakistain’s foreign policy and its de jure head, Sartaj PrunefaceAziz
...Adviser to Pak Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on National Security and Foreign Affairs, who believes in good jihadis and bad jihadis as a matter of national policy...
, you will have to concede both are pretty consistent, and if this consistency of thought and policy comes at unimaginable cost to the nation so be it. Towards the end of last week in an interview to Rooters, the prime minister’s adviser on foreign affairs, answered the critics of the country’s policy who say Pakistain does not crack down on all murderous Moslem groups and is only targeting those attacking Pak defence forces.

Rooters reported his words thus: The military has acted "without distinguishing between ’good and bad’ Taliban" but [Aziz] suggested that seeking a large-scale crackdown on all at once would overstretch the armed forces and lead to more terrorist attacks.
