File under: al-Qaeda in Pakistan

#1 IMO the following says or describes the US attitude more succintly ...

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > US PUTS PAKISTAN ON [final?]NOTICE OVER TERROR | WE WILL DO IT WITH YOU OR WITHOUT YOU, US TELLS PAKISTAN.

Hillary says Pak had better choose wisely becuase the US isn't about to stop its WOT efforts, inside Pakistan or outside.

#2 DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > [US-NATO] US MAKES INROADS INTO HAQQANI HEARTLAND, KILL 115 MILITANTS, espec vee LR MLRS barrages.

Also target AL-Qaeda + Taliban forces concentrated wid Haqqanis in Kunar province.

* SAME > [Swat Taliban leader] FAZLULLAH VOWS NEW WAR AGZ PAKISTAN, to spread Sharia in Makland + ultimately to all of Pakistan.

and

* INDIAN DEFENCE FORUM > THE SCARY PROSPECT OF GLOBAL DONE WARFARE, as per symbolizing the preference to use solely military options to resolve the typically long-standing political + socioeconomic problems underlying terrorism + militancy.

#3 PAKISTAN DEFENCE FORUM > US RESERVES RIGHT TO STRIKE INSIDE PAKISTAN: LEVIN [US Senator Carl], espec iff Islamabad can't or won't take any serious action or effort to deal Haqqanis + other Pak-based Militant whom ultimately pose a threat outside of Pakistan + Region, including agz the US.

and

* RELATED > TOPIX = CARL LEVIN: US CAN STRIKE TARGETS IN PAKISTAN.

* INDIAN DEFENCE FORUM > AIR MARSHAL (RETIRED) ASGHAR KHAN CLAIMS PAKISTAN ATTACKED INDIA FOUR TIMES SINCE 1947.

Various INDO Bloggers claim more, but whose counting.

Personally, I'm interpreting this Artic as a PCORRECT, SUBTLE WARNING to the US-World that the real threat from the deterioration in US-Pak relations is not outright US-PAK MIL CONFLICT, BUT PAK-INDIA MIL CONFLICT, POTENTIALLY NUCLEAR = LIMITED? ALL-OUT?, WHICH WILL DRAW IN THE US + CHINA, ETC.
