Perhaps, if opinion and policy makers in Pakistan did a little self-introspection, displayed some intellectual honesty, jogged their memory just a little bit (especially on the jihadi infrastructure that has been set up in their country) and, most of all, perused reports in their own media, they would be in a better position to inform the Pakistani public about the source of funds and weapons for the Taliban.An even easier way out is for the people of Pakistan to ask from where organisations like Lashkar-e-Taiba/Jamaatud Dawa, Jaish-i-Mohammad, Harkatul Mujahideen etc. get their funding and weapons. Chances are that the Pakistanis will discover the inconvenient truth that the source of funds and weapons for their ‘strategic assets’ (LeT, JeM, HuM, and of course the ‘good’ Taliban) and their ‘toxic assets’ (‘bad’ Taliban and al Qaeda) is more or less the same. What is more, answers to such searching questions will save Pakistani officials, ministers and parliamentarians from getting into a ridiculous situation in which they first insinuate a ‘foreign hand’ (a euphemism for India) behind the Taliban insurgency, and when pressed to drag India before the court of international public opinion, these same people say that they still don’t have any evidence to substantiate the charges they are levelling against India. In other words, they are blaming India not because they have any proof but only because they have convinced themselves that India would almost certainly exploit every opportunity to give Pakistan a taste of its own (jihadi) medicine. That India has nothing to gain and much to lose with the ascendancy of the Taliban inside Pakistan is something that is not even taken into consideration.<a href="http://www.lankaenews.com/Sinhala/news.php?id=9536" target="_blank">http://www.lankaenews.com/Sinhala/news.php?id=9536</a></blockquote>
