I have been to Pakistan. The people I met were far more concerned with fixing the development problems of Pakistan than with India. It is arrogant and wrong to assume that all Pakistanis are concerned with is destroying India. The _government_ of Pakistan and the ISI have certainly pursued an aggressive policy towards India - but it is my belief that this is essentially to distract the attention of the population from the chronic failures of the various governments to address the basic development problems. Recent history has demonstrated that working with Pakistan to bring people together, foster mutual understanding, and address these underlying problems has significantly reduced the level of aggression and terrorism. What could possibly be achieved with brute force? An (incredibly expensive and politically unmaintainable) occupation of Pakistan? What is your exit strategy? How would you step back from nuclear war? How would you prevent it descending into another Iraq or a third world war? Ridiculous.
