    Saqib Murtaza
    Pakistan has struggled to develop an effective strategy to defeat radical militant groups and counter their extremist ideology. This paper provides an overview of Pakistan's responses to terrorism and religious militancy over many years. It argues that Pakistan could not distance itself from the US-led war on terror in the region after 9/11. Further, militant groups pose a grave threat because they oppose Pakistan's alliance with the US and its democratic system and constitution. The complete paper was published in PIPS Research Journal Conflict and Peace Studies in 2010.

    September 2010 Pakistan’s Responses to Terrorism A Broad Overview

    Abstracts

    Pakistan has been facing the menace of religious militancy for many years. Yet, it has failed to
    formulate a coherent and comprehensive strategy to defeat radical outfits and neutralize their extremist
    ideology. This paper not only takes a broad overview of the country’s responses to the twin challenges
    of radicalization and Islamist violence but also recommends steps that must be taken to win this war.
    Giving a concise account of Pakistan’s involvement in the pre-9/11 Afghanistan, it argues that the
    country could not have distanced itself from the US-led “war on terror” in the region. It also contends
    that militant groups are posing a grave threat to the state not only because they find its alliance with
    the United States unpalatable but also because they despise its constitution and democratic system.

    targeted at key national and international decision-makers. We also publish survey-
    based reports and books, providing in-depth analysis of various conflicts or potential
    conflicts.
