“Since 2009, the US and Pakistan have deepened our important bilateral partnership. Counter- terrorism cooperation has led to significant blows against al-Qaeda’s leadership,” National Security Advisor, Gen (rtd) James Jones, said in a statement. The statement, however, added that the Pakistani establishment, including the military and the intelligence agency, need to continue their “strategic shift” against insurgents.
Many of the documents posted by Wikileaks strongly suggest that Pakistan’s ISI may be helping Afghan insurgents plan and carry out attacks on US forces in Afghanistan and their Afghan government allies.
