The weekend before last, Pakistan President Asif Zardari made a momentous offer to the country's blood enemy, India: a withdrawal of Pakistan's pre-emptive, first-strike nuclear policy. He also suggested that the two countries, which have gone to war three times, form an economic union. In other words, Zardari made a show of friendship unprecedented in Pakistan's 61-year history.
Three days later , a group of terrorists , possibly members of a Pakistan-nurtured Islamic army , created mayhem in Indian's largest city , Mumbai it's become clear that the ISI has lost control of these groups.
The ISI , for instance , had no role as far as I could tell in conceiving , controlling or influencing the 2002 kidnapping and murder of Daniel Pearl , my Wall Street Journal colleague , by members of Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Jhangvi. Nor , certainly , was the ISI responsible for last year's murder of Zardari's wife , Benazir Bhutto , by a suicide bomber.
