My Comment: Since the elections early this year, Pakistan has expedited making peace agreements with the tribal areas that border Afghanistan. Every time a peace agreement has been signed, conflict in Afghanistan has increased. I expect the same again now that the militants in the Swat region of Pakistan can focus their attention elsewhere.
