Pakistan's Rradical Islamists go out of ISI's control

Pakistan's Rradical Islamists go out of ISI's control
The headwaters of the Indus River system are not even in Pakistan — the system actually begins in Indian-administered Kashmir. While Kashmir has been the focus of Indo-Pakistani military action in modern times, the area where Pakistan faces its most severe security challenge is the saddle of land between the Indus and the broader, more fertile and more populated Ganges River basin. The one direction in which it makes sense to extend Pakistani civilisation as geography would allow takes Pakistan into direct and daily conflict with a much larger civilisation: India. Put simply, geography dictates that Pakistan either be absorbed into India or fight a losing battle against Indian influence.
