How can Zardari say with such authority that the terrorists are not of Pakistani origin?
That’s what he’s been told to say, and so he’s following his brief. My point is that rather than having this kind of public exchange — Zardari made these denials on CNN’s Larry King show — this is the kind of exchange that they should be having quietly with their Indian counterparts. With this kind of public debate, the actual process of sharing information will be broken. Who told Zardari what to say — the Pakistan army? I don’t know if it’s just the army, because they’ve been meeting as a group. There must have been some briefing provided to him by his colleagues. They could be from the military, they could be from the civil segment. There are people who prepare the briefs, and they may have said we don’t know yet, so you can’t confirm something like this. The Zardari government is demonstrably weak. Can it control the terrorists, and will the military leadership permit the government to act, especially if rogue elements in the army and ISI are complicit? The Mumbai attack really
