Which begs the next question: why would the US want the Siachen demilitarized? There is another angle. Demil of Siachen will release troops on the Pakistani side for fighting in NFWP, something Uncle wants badly. If that is so, then perhaps the war in A'stan-Pak border is not going as well for the ...

I don't defend the cynical foreign policy of past American Presidents. Sure it contributed to the growth of jihadi islam in general and pakistan in particular. You have to be aware of one fact.
