These jihadi groups could actually be thwarted by a concerted, integrated police and intelligence operation. Enough is known about groups like JeM and LeT for local police to act, if they were given a free hand to do so. Unfortunately, the civilian government in Islamabad and the provincial government in Punjab are unwilling to make any move as of yet, likely also because the jihadists could serve as a bulwark against India, if needed, as they have done in the past. That certainly complicates matters for the U.S.; Washington either has to rethink its strategy in Afghanistan with greater sensitivity for Pakistan's complicated internal political dimensions (not to mention the country's war-torn history with India), or it has to learn to live with the messy, violent, and grim reality that jihadists are likely to remain part of the current equation.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/5B81018B-0943-421E-A919-1F8ADD1E898A/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
