When an Uninvited Guest Comes to Visit and Doesn't Die

The political landscape of India - Pakistani relations has just become all the more interesting thanks to a Terrorist who didn't die as he was so ordered.  In addition to the details of his Lashkar -e-Tayiib' plot, training and background also comes the political fallout of how India will react and to whom the Indian government may turn to for help.  Be assured new ties will be forged and old ties will be strengthened in the pursuit of the perpetrators of the Mumbai attacks.   The impact of the Mumbai Terror attacks attacks on the geo-political landscape will pancake Islamic extremists further between Allied Western interests if relations and intelligence agency cooperation between India and The United States and Britain tightens as it already seems to become a reality.  Further rocking the landscape lies Pakistan, the exacerbater in this carnage in India.  Having created this monster known as Lashkar-e-Tayyiba among other names, Pakistan will feel the political pressure beyond India's demands for those responsible and a far greater concentration of Intel and Covert Operations than they have already experienced in America's War on Terror. Thanks to a living breathing perpetrator and a Satellite phone still warm from the calls made to the instigators of this most heinous attack, The Law of Unintended Consequences is about to come home to roost in the Pakistan's backyard.  The game board of the Far and Middle East just became more checkered with Western flags thanks to Lashkar you may not see them waving but their breeze will be felt long after the the table is cleared of the flotsam and jetsam left by these hateful interlopers.
