The Washington Post today detailed Pakistani fears that the war in Afghanistan will destabilize their country:
ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN — As 30,000 U.S. troops begin to deploy to Afghanistan, fears are rising in Pakistan that a stepped-up war just over the border could worsen the increasingly bloody struggle with militancy here.
Residents in border areas such as the violence-plagued city of Peshawar worry that a tide of militants could flee Afghanistan to seek targets in Pakistan. Doubts linger among Pakistani security officials about the Americans’ ability to intensify the campaign against the Taliban without further destabilizing Pakistan’s vast southwestern border or the already volatile tribal areas in the northwest.
Rethink Afghanistan (Part Two): Pakistan deals extensively with the danger posed to Pakistan’s security by the U.S. policy in Afghanistan. Pushing more militants from Afghanistan across the border will only make matters worse in nuclear-armed Pakistan.
