		<description>The struggle between the army and the civilians has blown out of control. The US is supporting the civilians and I think this is just the beginning of the conflict. The US wants Pak army to be more active in FATA and all the pressure is to that end.

There was no need to rush for Durrani to accept Ajmal&#039;s nationality publicly but he did it to show Pakistan commitment before Joe Biden arrives in Pakistan.
The reality is that actors in Pakistan wait for the cue form the US and then rush to comply with the instruction. 
My gut feeling is that if Joe Biden is unable to get some commitment from the Pak army, Zardari would be sent packing right around Obama&#039;s inauguration.</description>

		<description>What a coup! Gen. Durrani is our own &quot;Count Von Stauffenberg&#039;. My respect for the man increases manifold. If he did in Zia, he probably did the nation a favour. Pity he couldn&#039;t do it earlier. 
As for Gilani, the man probably can&#039;t tell his arse from his elbow without help, so less said about him the better.</description>
