Admission of state sponsored terrorism by Pakistani authorities

see this Der Spigel Interview where Musharraf admits to that.

On 7th Nov in TimesNow Channel, Tasneem Noorani, a former Secretary of the Pakistani Interior Ministry, openly said that.

Kiyani called the Haqqanis as strategic assets.

In Dec. 2008, President Zardari himself admitted to ISI helping LeT. He said,"The links between the Inter-Services Intelligence Agency and the LeT were developed in the old days when dictators used to run the country. After the 9/11 terror attacks in the US, things have changed to a great extent"

In an address to bureaucrats in July 2009, President Zardari said: "Militants and extremists were deliberately created and nurtured as a policy to achieve some short-term tactical objectives. Let us be truthful to ourselves and make a candid admission of the realities. The terrorists of today were the heroes of yesteryears until 9/11 occurred and they began to haunt us as well"

In Nov. 2009, Prime Minister Gilani admitted to the support for terrorism by Musharraf as "running with the hares and hunting with the hounds".

When Bush warned the Pakistanis in August 2008 of their support to Al Qaeda, Afrasiab Khattak, President of Awami National Party (ANP) said this: "The question is why it has taken the Americans so long to see what the ISI is doing. We’ve been telling them for years but they wouldn’t buy it.". See here.

In an interview to the BBC as far back as on Feb. 13, 1994, Benazir Bhutto admitted how she handed over to Rajiv Gandhi the complete list of Sikh activists colluding with the ISI in terrorism in the Punjab. Later, Nawaz Sharif described this interview as a faux pas.

Apart from these, of course, numerous Pakistani commentators, analysts, and editors have openly admitted to terror as a state policy.

Why Did Pakistan's Spy Chief Make a Secret Trip to China?
Quote:

Pasha's China trip has been interpreted by some as a tacit act of defiance—a reminder to his American counterparts that the Pakistanis can always look east to their “all-weather” friend across the Himalayas rather than bend the knee to the will of the U.S.

But it also may be a sign of China's growing disquiet with Pakistan. Another top-ranking Pakistani military officer, Lt. Gen Wahid Arshad, had already conducted a considerable tour of China just weeks ago in a bid to improve ties. A few analysts have suggested that Pasha's trip — couched in vague terms about building a “broad-based strategic dialogue” — may have been less a visit and more of a summons.

Quote:

Chinese officials claimed the attacks in Kashgar were authored by the shadowy East Turkestan Islamic Movement, a jihadist organization of mostly ethnic Uighurs, a Turkic Muslim minority that comprises the majority in the far-western Chinese region of Xinjiang. China routinely invokes the specter of the terrorist threat when cracking down on dissent in the restive region. Yet disturbances there tend to be triggered more often by social discontent — many Uighurs chafe at state policies they deem discriminatory and marginalizing — than militant connivance. Pasha's presence in Beijing may mark Beijing's continued efforts to root out Uighur dissidents and sympathizers beyond China's borders, as it has already done in Kazakhstan.

QUOTE:Obama’s observation on one of the world’s most opaque tribal areas of Pakistan’s North West region bordering Afghanistan got vindicated, even more unequivocally this time on December 16, 2014, when terrorists of Teherik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) butchered 132 innocent children of the Army Public School in Peshawar, all in the age group of eight to eighteen years.

QUOTE: George Bush’s famous words after 9/11 said to garner support of his allies in to a coalition for launching the Enduring Freedom, “…either you are with us or against us” changed the discourse and definition of the campaign against terrorism. The Pakistani establishment, which found itself at the crossroads, was left with no other choice but to go the US way.

1. Anything is possible.
2. Few things are probable.
3. The 51 MoUs http://www.dawn.com/news/1177129/detail ... o-pakistan do not include an oil refinery or oil storage at Gwadar. Doesn't mean it isn't going to be built.
4. MoUs or framework agreements are not binding commitments.
5. Even if a project is started, changing economic conditions can render it non-viable.

The article says "Interestingly, China has already made a down payment of $28 billion towards the project." {the Pakistan economic corridor}.

Have you seen anywhere else an actual Chinese commitment that goes beyond MoUs and framework agreements?

http://www.wsj.com/articles/chinas-xi-j ... 1429533767
"In total, the economic corridor project aims to add some 17,000 megawatts of electricity generation, at a cost of around $34 billion. "

From all accounts this is expensive. E.g, Tata Power is building 1320 megawatts of electricity generation in Vietnam for $1.8 billion; i.e. $1.36 billion per gigawatt of installed capacity. China is doing $2 billion per gigawatt.

Even before the ink has dried up on the MoU papers, Pakis have started whining about getting a bad deal. What's that saying about beggars and choosers.

China Loves Pakistan … but Most Chinese Don’t

But quantitative measures of grassroots sentiment between the two countries tell a different story. While Pakistanis view China in an overwhelmingly positive light — a July 2014 Pew Research Center survey found that 78 percent of respondents view China favorably — Chinese maintain a far less enthusiastic attitude toward their South Asian neighbor; only 30 percent of Chinese view Pakistan favorably.Chinese maintain a far less enthusiastic attitude toward their South Asian neighbor; only 30 percent of Chinese view Pakistan favorably. It’s not clear why Chinese popular opinion of Pakistan is so out of kilter with the two countries’ official relationship. Though most Chinese do acknowledge the close ties between the countries, some view Pakistan as violent, chaotic, and poorly governed. Pakistan shares a 372-mile border with Xinjiang, the northwestern Chinese region home to 10 million Uighurs, a largely Muslim Turkic-speaking minority, a region with sporadic outbreaks of violence between Uighurs and the majority Han population. In August 2011, officials in the region of Kashgar in southern Xinjiang claimed that Uighur militants had received training in Pakistan, and Chinese officials have pressured Pakistan to expel Uighur separatists who may be operating there.

To some in China, when imagining a violent, lawless, or run-down place, Pakistan is what first comes to mind. One young woman, upon returning to her college dorm room in the northern Chinese city of Dalian on an early spring day in 2013, discovered to her shock that the ceiling had caved in. “I thought I had been transported to Pakistan!” she posted on Weibo, a major social platform, along with a picture of the collapsed ceiling. When speculation abounded in April 2014 as to the fate of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370, some were quick to link the plane’s disappearance to Pakistan. “I think it must be related to Islamic extremism,” one Weibo user wrote in a representative comment, adding “The airplane might already be in a place like Pakistan, Afghanistan, or Yemen.” And in China, the general impression of Pakistanis themselves is often little better. A 2013 discussion thread on question-and-answer site Zhihu asked, “What kind of country is Pakistan? Are there a lot of terrorist organizations?” As one user wrote, “The poor people [there] are hooligans; they utter lewd expressions at women on the street.”

Reality rapidly intrudes and spoils the raptures of ecstasy that was rippling through the Islamic Republic of Pakistan following the visit of Deeper than Indian Ocean, Higher than Himalaya’s, Sweeter than Honey, Iron Brother Xi Jinpeng .

Express Tribune discloses that the much ballyhooed USD 28 Billion contracts signed under China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is subject to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan putting up PKR125 billion to PKR 150 billion during the fiscal year 2016, which starts on July 1, to execute work on projects under CPEC.

Express Tribune then goes on to say that “For fiscal 2016, the Finance Ministry has allocated Rs580 billion for the development budget, which the Planning Ministry says is insufficient, given the requirements of CPEC projects” .

Express Tribune yet further goes on to then explain that “the government is stuck between a rock and a hard place. On one hand, it has promised China that it will fund its part of several projects for CPEC. On the other hand, it has also promised the International Monetary Fund that it will keep the budget deficit limited to 4% of the total size of the economy for fiscal 2016.”:

Bakis want everything done for them by others and free in return for empty rhetoric.

They wanted the Iranians to built their part of the pipeline and later the Baki part and supply free gas too. They are right now begging the Iranians not to invoke the penalty clause. But ofcourse not everyone is unkill. The same game is being played with the Cheenis but the cheenis are more bania than the Indian bania.

May be, from the Baki POV the deal is to induce unkill to send more money across.

Bloomberg citing “senior Chinese water resources official” reports that P.R. China is reluctant to finance the Diamer Bhasha dam which the Islamic Republic of Pakistan is seeking to put up on occupied Indian territory of Gilgit-Baltistan:

China is unlikely to fund Diamer Bhasha because it doesn’t want to get involved in a water dispute between India and Pakistan, said a senior Chinese water resources official, who declined to be identified because the information isn’t public.
