Pakistan: Anatomy of a Failed State

• Part 1:  (November 16, 2009)

  “With a stockpile of over 80 nuclear warheads, a rapidly collapsing state, and an army and intelligence service severely contaminated with Islamists, Pakistan represents perhaps the single biggest security challenge of the 21st century.“

• Part 2: , November 18, 2009

  “Today’s Pakistan is at war with itself, torn between competing ideas of what it means to be Pakistani. This failure to create a humane or liberal nationalism has its roots in Pakistan’s foundation.“

• Part 3: , November 18, 2009

  “From its foundation, the primary challenge to Pakistan’s sense of itself came from India. India’s success at forging a nationality out of its diversity stood as a towering repudiation of the very idea of Pakistan.“

• Part 4: , December 6, 2009

  “For decades, Washington has mistakenly believed that by funding Pakistan, it was propping up “Western-minded” leaders who would thoroughly oppose fanatical religious forces. Instead, since its creation, Pakistan has been a center for the Islamist movement.“

• Part 5: , December 7, 2009

  “The Pakistani army, the nation’s most powerful institution, has never been the modernizing force the West believed it would be. Instead, after seizing power in a coup, the army implemented a national program of Islamic indoctrination.“

• Part 6: , December 11, 2009

  “Pakistan’s relationship with America has always followed the same pattern: The army accepts American military aid while allying itself with the very enemies it had been paid and equipped by the U.S. to oppose.“

• Part 7: , December 13, 2009

  “Pakistan’s 1971 civil war constitutes the single most terrible slaughter of Muslims since the founding of Islam – committed entirely by Muslims.“

• Part 8: , December 14, 2009

  “No individual bears greater responsibility for the genocide in Pakistan in 1971 than Zulfi Bhutto, who refused all political compromises and maneuvered the government and army into civil war.“

• Part 9: , December 19, 2009

  “In 1971, assisted by 13 battalions of mujahideen, Pakistan’s soldiers slaughtered three million people over 9 bloodcurdling months.“
