BOSTON, MA, US: This is with reference to Ejaz Haider’s article of September 21 titled “America’s SPECTRE syndrome in Afghanistan” which was absolutely brilliant and very well argued. However, I will say that it will not go down well with many of Pakistan’s self-loathing ‘liberals’ who have made up their mind that their country is responsible for all the troubles in the world. Until recently, many of these ‘strategic analysts’ were praising Ejaz Haider for his article “An open letter to General Pasha” and now they will wonder what happened to him.
I would ask these liberals that have they heard of words like ‘independent thinking’ and ‘analysis’?
