On the face of it, it's misplaced and infact surprised me.
That NSA would make such a comment which should have been the domain of our Foreign Affairs.
But come to think of it, it's just another mind game.
He gives away the game, when he says it's time for Pakisthan talked to us.
He just setting a background for another Power Talk and he is just showing urgencey.
It's better to bring the enemy to the discussion table, when he ( enemy ) is on a slippery ground and the decision maker ( Mush ) got lots of worries in his mind.
