Karl F. Inderfurth, George Washington University | April 3, 2008
The fate of NATO's Afghanistan mission is strongly interlinked with developments in Pakistan. ++ Stability of both countries depends on an effective strategy to fight the Taliban/Al Qaeda in Pakistan's tribal border areas. ++ Taliban's capabilities against coalition forces in Afghanistan are a threat. ++ Joint US-Afghan-Pakistan military intelligence centers and counter-terrorism operations are necessary.
