I have been based in Afghanistan since almost 2002 and have yet to see an Al Qaeda man.Much of the writers narrative about Al Qaeda and ISIS and Jihadist groups is sheer nonsense:-- The writer ignores the harsh fact that the worst blow inflicted on Pakistans secular and liberal outlook was General Zia ul Haq who was USAs greatest ally and was all along strengthened and aided by the west so that their strategic objectives in the region against USSR etc would be served.I agree with the writer that the military in Pakistan has increasingly manipulated things to serve the generals agenda.However here too politicians like ZA Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif are to be blamed who selected people like Zia,Musharraf etc to suit their political goals.The ISIs involvement with harassing media is a valid criticism of the author.The ISPR has become a major manipulator but this is bound to happen in a state where the whole system is based on massive corruption whether it is political or military.On page-184 the authors criticism of suppressing Lt Gen Mahmuds book is invalid.There is hardly anything critical in this book and as per Lt Gen Tariq Khan this book was actually teaching handbook of staff college and a group effort plagiarized by Lt Gen Mahmud and published in his own name:-- The author offers no practical way of restructuring Pakistan other than broadbrushes.He seems to be against Pakistans nuclear deterrent but has failed to rationalize how the USA would have overrun and destroyed Pakistan if it did not have a nuclear deterrent.The book is inconclusive and offers no way out other than generalized statements.Page 284 is an example where the author makes huge broad brushes but offers nothing concrete :--

An anecdotal travelogue about Lahore - which begins in the present and travels through time to the mythological origins of the city attributed to Ram's son, Lav. Through the city's present - its people, communities, monuments, parks and institutions - the author paints a vivid picture of the city's past. From its emergence under Mahmud Ghaznavi to the Mughal centuries where several succession intrigues unfolded on its soil, its recasting as the capital of Maharaja Ranjit Singh's Khalsa Empire, the role it played in preserving the British Raj, to acting as an incubator of revolutionaries and people's movements, Lahore influenced the subcontinent's political trajectory time and again. Today, too, Lahore often determines which way the wind will blow on Pakistan's political landscape. The Lahore Resolution of 1940, which laid the blueprint for the creation of the country, was signed here. The city saw the birth of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's PPP, as well as his downfall. It was to Lahore that Benazir Bhutto returned to combat a military dictator, and where Imran Khan heralded his arrival as a main contender on the political battlefield. As the capital of Punjab, Lahore continues to cast a long shadow over the federal state.

During the 1947 partition of the Indian subcontinent, Kashmir—a Muslim-majority area ruled by a Hindu maharaja—became a hotly disputed territory. Divided between India and Pakistan, the region has been the focus of international wars and the theater of political and military struggles for self-determination. The result has been great human suffering within the state, with political implications extending globally. Imagining Kashmir examines cinematic and literary imaginings of the Kashmir region’s conflicts and diverse citizenship, analyzing a wide range of narratives from writers and directors such as Salman Rushdie, Bharat Wakhlu, Mani Ratnam, and Mirza Waheed in conjunction with research in psychology, cognitive science, and social neuroscience. In this innovative study, Patrick Colm Hogan’s historical and cultural analysis of Kashmir advances theories of narrative, colonialism, and their corresponding ideologies in relation to the cognitive and affective operations of identity. Hogan considers how narrative organizes people’s understanding of, and emotions about, real political situations and the ways in which such situations in turn influence cultural narratives, not only in Kashmir but around the world.
