Counterinsurgency in Pakistan

by Seth G. Jones, C. Christine Fair, Christine C. Fair

Pakistan has undertaken a number of operations against militant groups since 2001. There have been some successes, but such groups as al Qa1ida continue to present a significant threat to Pakistan, the United States, and other countries. Pakistan needs to establish a population-centric counterinsurgency that better protects the local population and addresses grievances. It also needs to abandon militancy as a tool of foreign and domestic policy.
