The Problem is the ISI

So, the Taliban has exploded another car bomb in Kabul.

The target was, here is a shocker, the Indian embassy.

One of the elephants in the room in that part of the world is that the ISI, Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence, like much of the military and intelligence establishment in that nation, viewed everything through the lens of an eventual all out war with India, and as such has aided, abetted, and directed the Taliban as a client organization.

I'm beginning to think that direct action against certain actors within the ISI might well be warranted...I'm suggesting snatch and grabs, not a Hellfire strike at their headquarters in Islamabad.
