#1 <<<< However, one of the officials contacted by The News feared that if the newly found alliance of the militants stepped up their attacks on the coalition troops inside Afghanistan, it would create many problems for Pakistan and Islamabad would face its consequences.>>>>

And such and eventuality is totally unexpected. After the truce weren't they going to go back to dying their beards, shutting down schools for children and generally moving back to the stone age. But they were to remain within their newly won territory, indulge in a little internecine bickering and generally not bother anyone.

I just don't get it.
