He was certainly in tight with ISI before the coup, but what's his real game post-9/11? Is he trying to occupy some nonexistent middle ground between ISI and the US, such that he's tolerated by both as better than the alternatives? Or is he tolerated as a front man by ISI, which still really runs the show? Or has he broken with ISI, hence the assassination attempts? In any of the above cases, is there any reason to think that ISI does not still run the show in Pakistan?<DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV></DIV></DIV><BR><DIV> <SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;; font-family: Times New Roman; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 14px; ">Michael McIntyre</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;; font-family: Times New Roman; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 14px; "><A href="mailto:mcintyremichael@mac.com">mcintyremichael@mac.com</A></SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;; font-family: Times New Roman; "><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;; font-family: Times New Roman; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 14px; "><A href="http://morbidsymptoms.blogspot.com">http://morbidsymptoms.blogspot.com</A></SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"></SPAN> </DIV><BR></BODY></HTML>
