Comments on: Swat, Now http://www.chapatimystery.com/archives/imperial_watch/swat_now.html what is the vertiginous chapati saying to me?

It helps a great deal to be able to know a bit of context. Being so far away from Pakistan, it is very difficult to know what's actually going on there, what to believe and what not to believe. Reading Pakistani and American editorials, sometimes it feels like the sky is falling :-( Juan cole's latest post about Pakistan. He did a post earlier on about taking a deep breath on Pakistan. I hope Prof. Cole's confidence is not ill-placed. http://www.juancole.com/2009/04/readers-have-written-me-asking-what-i.html Sepoy, Thanks for the Sultan-i-Rome’s paper.

But the issue of a justice system is distinct from what Mr Fazlullah & Co are trying to establish. The Taliban agenda is to set up an Islamic state on the lines of Mullah Omar’s erstwhile regime in Kabul. Going by their electoral preference—for the secular Awami National Party—it is clear that the people of Swat don’t want that. But now that the Pakistani state has abandoned them, that’s likely to be what they are going to get.
