Trusting Pakistan

Whose side is Pakistan on in the fight against terrorism? With the recent capture and killing of Osama Bin Laden just two hours away from Islamabad, attention has again turned to Pakistan and its complex relationship with the West. Fears of reprisal attacks are high, after heavily armed Taliban gunmen attacked a naval base in the country's biggest city Karachi. Against that backdrop, we ask: how genuine and effective are Pakistan’s efforts in combating terrorism? How do Pakistan’s leaders juggle cooperation with the West on the one hand and anti-US sentiment among the population on the other? And who has the real power there – the government or the military? Join Insight as we bring together the Pakistani-Australian community and talk with people with first-hand knowledge of Pakistan's diplomatic and military circles.
