Today I received the following e-mail query:
There is a lot of talk about in Pakistan media that American think tanks have issued a map about dividing Pakistan. I have read some where that you were on that team. If you have made such a report can you kindly send me a copy of that report and map, I ll also like to know about the research mathodolgy of that report. If I am wrong about that can you kindly give me any whereabouts from where I can get that report.
Based on press reports, I suspect that this query was about the
Pakistan Policy Working Group, which did
release a report in September about Pakistan. I have no idea why it took three months for this to permeate the English-language Pakistani press.
Anyway, for the record, I was not a part of that report. Indeed, the only way I would ever be a part of a report on Pakistan is if a crackerjack terrorist group managed to knock off the plethora of economists, political scientists, and sociologists who actually know something about Pakistan.
That is all.
