"Operation Zarb-e-Azb: The Pakistani Military Battle Against Militant Groups in North Waziristan" is a comprehensive analysis of one of Pakistan's most significant military operations in its recent history. This book provides an in-depth look at the complex and challenging campaign undertaken by the Pakistani military to combat militant groups in the tribal region of North Waziristan. The narrative begins by setting the geopolitical and historical context of North Waziristan, a region long known for its challenging terrain and as a haven for various militant groups. The book explores the rise of militancy in the area, detailing the key groups operating there, their origins, ideologies, and the threat they posed to Pakistan's national security. Each chapter delves into different phases of Operation Zarb-e-Azb, initiated in June 2014. The book meticulously covers the planning stages, the mobilization of troops, the strategies employed by the Pakistani military, and the use of modern warfare technology. It also provides a detailed account of the ground and air operations carried out in the region, offering insights into the tactical and operational challenges faced by the forces. The author provides a balanced view of the operation's successes and setbacks, evaluating the impact on the local population, the displacement of civilians, and the humanitarian efforts to provide relief and support to affected communities. The narrative also explores the broader implications of the operation on regional stability, Pakistan's internal security, and its relations with neighboring countries. "Operation Zarb-e-Azb" critically assesses the long-term outcomes of the military campaign, including the extent to which it achieved its objectives in terms of dismantling militant networks and restoring state authority in North Waziristan. The book also discusses the ongoing challenges in countering insurgency and terrorism within the region. This book is a crucial resource for students of military strategy, South Asian studies, and international relations, as well as policy-makers and analysts interested in understanding the dynamics of counter-insurgency operations in complex territorial and political landscapes. It provides a comprehensive and insightful perspective on a pivotal chapter in Pakistan's fight against militancy.

Veteran Pakistani journalist and commentator Zahid Hussain explores Pakistan's complex political power web and the consequences of Musharraf's decision to support America's drive against jihadism, which essentially took Pakistan to war with itself. Conducting exclusive interviews with key players and grassroots radicals, Hussain pinpoints the origin of the jihadi movement in Pakistan and Afghanistan, the long-standing and often denied links between militants and Pakistani authorities, the weaknesses of successive elected governments, and the challenges to Musharraf's authority posed by politico-religious, sectarian, and civil society elements within the country. The jihadi madrassas of Pakistan are incubators of the most feared terrorists in the world. Although the country's "war on terror" has so far been a stage show, a very real battle is looming, the outcome of which will have grave implications for the future security of the world.

This book examines the rise of religious extremism in Pakistan, particularly since 1947, and analyzes its connections to the Pakistani army's corporate interests and U.S.-Pakistan relations. It includes profiles of leading Pakistani militant groups with details of their origins, development, and capabilities. The author begins with an historical overview of the introduction of Islam to the Indian sub-continent in 712 AD, and brings the story up to the present by describing President Musharraf's handling of the war on terror. He provides a detailed account of the political developments in Pakistan since 1947 with a focus on the influence of religious and military forces. He also discusses regional politics, Pakistan's attempt to gain nuclear power status, and U.S.-Pakistan relations, and offers predictions for Pakistan's domestic and regional prospects.

This book analyzes the emergence, rise, and decline of insurgency by the Pakistani Taliban in Pakistan’s North-Western region, also known as Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). It provides a detailed account of the rise and decline of the FATA insurgency and also examines aftereffects of the insurgency. Offering an in-depth analysis of how insurgency in the FATA began in 2004 after Pakistan entered its military forces into the tribal areas, the author illustrates that the insurgency erupted when state repression on masses is combined with a disruption of the previous modus vivendi centered on co-optation of local elites. In the following years, the insurgency became so powerful that most of the FATA region fell under the control of the insurgents. The book further argues that a weak counterinsurgency strategy by the Pakistani government characterised by the overzealous use of force and a failure to win the support of local communities led the insurgency to become stronger and expand its control. Furthermore, the analysis reveals that a more robust counterinsurgency strategy, relying more on a determined and a judicious use of force and attempts to gain the trust and support of local communities, adopted in the later years led to the collapse of the insurgency. In short, this book offers an explanation of what makes an insurgency more likely to occur and how insurgency escalates and declines. In addition, this book sheds light on recent development in FATA including the merger of FATA with the mainstream Pakistan, the rise of the Pashtun Tahafuz Movement, a non-violent protest movement, and the resurgence of the Pakistani Taliban especially after the Afghan Taliban capture of Kabul in the wake of US withdrawal of forces in Afghanistan. This book is a timely addition to the literature on South Asian Politics and Security Studies.

The essays in this volume address the central theme of Pakistan’s enduring, yet elusive, quest for democracy. The book charts Pakistan’s struggle from its very inception, at least in the political rhetoric provided by both civilian and military leaders, for democracy, liberalism, freedom of expression, inclusiveness of minorities and even secularism. At the same time, it demonstrates how in practice, the country has continued to drift towards increasingly brittle authoritarianism, religious extremism and intolerance of minorities — both Muslim and non-Muslim. This chasm between animated political rhetoric and grim political reality has baffled the world as much as Pakistanis themselves. In this volume, scholars and practitioners of statecraft from around the world have sought to explain the dichotomy that exists between the rhetoric and the reality. Crucial areas such as Pakistan’s troubled status as a theocracy; its relationship with the US; the position of women and their quest for empowerment; the Mujahir Qaumi movement; the sharp class divide that has led to an elitist political culture; and finally, an erudite discussion of the popular topic — Jinnah’s vision of Pakistan — are the focus of this book. This volume will be of interest to scholars of history, political science, international relations, sociology, anthropology and urban planning, policy-makers and think-tanks, as well as the wider reading public curious about South Asia.
