The cancellation of the ISI delegations visit to the UK, in the light of British Prime Minister Camerons baseless and derogatory remarks about Pakistan, is in the correctness of things. The message should be clear that intelligence cooperation cannot take place when Pakistan is going to be abused at will by the British leadership. It is time both the US and UK realised that it is Pakistan that supplies the oxygen which allows them to exist and operate in Afghanistan. It would also have been in the fitness of things if President Zardari had at least postponed his visit to the UK, especially since it is not focused on any state urgency. But the Pakistani leadership is showing a strange hesitancy in giving a strong response to Camerons remarks. British politicians have been far more blunt in pointing out Camerons strategic error. The Foreign Minister, as usual, has been found trying to find justifications for Camerons remarks - labelling them as a slip of the tongue which it clearly was not. Why did the Foreign office delay the summoning of the British High Commissioner to the Ministry where he should have been given a dressing down by a mid-rank officer of the Ministry to convey the proper message? It is time Pakistan demanded nothing less than a strong apology from the British Prime Minister. The fact of the matter is that Cameron is totally unrepentant because he is, like Labours Blair, seeing himself as a junior partner to the US and before his Indian trip he met Obama in Washington. So his remarks seem to be part of the US-UK strategy to humiliate and pressure Pakistan - similar to the lies concocted on Iraqi WMD. After all, while the nation is still fuming over the Cameron remark, Chairman of the US joint Chiefs of Staff , Admiral Mullen has piped in with a demand that the ISI to strategically shift its focus apparently using the WikiLeaks as a pretext for this demand. This is absurd given the question marks on these leaks raised by the field reports themselves, on the ISI, in terms of pointing out the questionable sources. More important, the real focus of the WikiLeaks is on the US, its CIA and its Western allies in terms of human rights abuses and possible war crimes being committed in Afghanistan. So Mullen should look to the CIA and demand it alter its strategic focus in keeping with international laws of war. Now that the ISI has taken a politically correct and nationalist position on Camerons remarks, it needs to do the same in terms of cooperation and intelligence sharing with the US military. Even more than the British, the US is totally dependent upon ISI cooperation for a wide range of strategies being operationalised in Afghanistan. Why should ISI alter its strategic focus even in Afghanistan when it has to preserve the countrys interests especially given the growing uncertainty of the US and NATO policies and exit strategies? It is time to end this farce of cooperation with the US which is primarily an opportunity for the US to use and abuse us at will.
