allow the indians and their northern alliance encircle them, so there are many who will prevent that to happen including those we are fighting with. i find it difficult pakistan will be simultaneously able to do better at coping its own extremism while supporting close cousins of the extremists in the war in afghanistan. so i think the risk in pakistan gets worse. and then a point that my colleagues mentioned, it's a huge propaganda and moral shot in the arm, to use a simply fied term, jihadist. the second superpower defeated god is on our side forward to victory, i don't know where that plays out, but if you think that's a risk that's not a risk, then i think you should think twice about it. it is possible that we will fail. i will say the margin for a kind of messy success is quite narrow. and it is narrower now than it was a couple of years ago. and some of that is our own doing. i would like to propose, though, that the debate about this needs to deal with two basic questions.

northern supply route to afghanistan across russia. well it always did become very much more important because the situation with regard to pakistan has deteriorated to the point where it's becoming increasingly difficult for nato to supply its troops by that route so this is obviously an alternative which they had to find how to fight quickly demonstrates two things in my view it was very prophetic but the occupation itself is fully completes that the allies that sustain the occupation are no longer willing to do so and so there's a search for for new allies i think it would also be worth saying that it would be sensible for any state including the russian state to think twice about being involved in this quagmire to be involved in afghanistan is to make yourself a target for terrorism if you weren't before it will be seen by many afghans as an assistance to the forces that are occupying them in such a disastrous none of us are not sure it's a well thought out move on the part of the russians and yet russia is certainly feeling the impact of that nato operation in afghanistan saying that so much of the operation hasn't worked and ind
