Eliminate the ISI.

Editor,

Here is the next job for Seal Team 6:

Eliminate the leadership of Pakistan's ISI.

The ISI is the most destabilizing actor in South Asia. It is the chief benefactor of the Taliban and al Qaeda. It was behind the terrorist attack in Mumbai. It orchestrates terrorist attacks in Kashmir. Pakistan's civilian government and the westernized segment of Pakistan's middle class do not support the ISI. It is a remnant of Mohammad Zia-ul-Haq's Islamist fundamentalist military government and is a blight on the planet. Eradicating the leadership of the ISI would go a long way toward stabilizing South Asia and could be done in probably a dozen or less raids.
