Pakistani internal security (catch all)

[George L. Singleton]

With what I knew myself to be absurdly premature return of Displaced Persons we should have known this was a likely event.

The good news is I hear from individuals that IDP returnees are small in numbers. The masses of IDPs are not being encouraged officially to return for several more months, despite games the Taliban and al Qaida are now playing through the local media and world press.

Too many Pak and world media fools undermine our allies the Pak military and thus our total war efforts with their yellow journalist sensationalism to "create" radical news headlines.

WW II news media censorship would help Pakistan and NATO, too, on both sides of the Durand Line.
