Six people have been arrested in connection with the massacre of 17 people at a church in Bahawalpur, said a report quoting police on Tuesday.

No need to get so testy. I don't think anyone in the US is calling for nuking Pakistan. Most of us, however, do understand that the ISI is not without blame.

Your conspiracy theory about the murder of the Pakistani Christians is just propaganda - you can do better than that. It's just as laughable as the theory that originated in the ME claiming that the Mossad was behind the 9-11 attacks, and that is why 4000 Jewish-Americans were not at work that morning at the WTC.

As to Pakistani/Indian relations, I believe that once the terrorists are flushed out from your region, you guys should make peace, and then give China something to think about. It would also in our national interests to keep China in check. But with the problems between Pakistan and India, there really is no way to keep China in check.

Finally, not to inflame you, why can't the Line of Control become the International border? Or is it something the Indians won't consider either?

Just saw a well regarded Pakistani-American, Manzoor Ijaz on Geraldo. Even he thinks that Haq couldn't have been cornered so quickly by the Taliban unless the low and mid level operatives of the ISI, who had been following him, didn't provide their info to the Taliban.
