The Pakistani war.....
It's not getting too much coverage, but hundreds are dying in Pakistan and its various border wars.
(AP) In Afghanistan (in Herat,) the US conducted a strike that reportedly killed 30 militants and the Afghani government says killed 76 civilians.
(AP) The Pakistani military says it killed 37 militants in Swat.
(CNN) Eight die as Indian troops battle Pakistani militants in Kashmir.
(CNN) The Taleban kill 4 in two bombings in Swat.
That's a lot of violence stretching across a pretty big geographic region. As a security influence, Pakistan is collapsing.
(Probably should add this: (NYTimes) After Musharraf, U.S. Struggles to Find New Pakistan Ally Against Taliban.)
