Interesting opinion piece from Dawn.Com.
Noting a convergence of Pakistani and US interests in Afghanistan.
Much may seem obvious, but it is kind of warming to hear it coming out of the Pakistani media.
Obama has been much criticised for his reference to “18 months”, and criticised some more for rowing back from that (a little).
Here at least it seems to have concentrated the odd mind in a positive way.

I am a UK citizen & resident with a long standing interest in Central Asia. This probably has something to do with student days, a late night TV show called 'The Silk Road' and a TV with no remote control. I currently work in software and live with my wife & three children.
