Excessive & indiscriminate use of anything leads to side effects some of which can be controlled & some cannot.
The logic I often read about the Mujahedeen being an offspring of the US mind and that Pak " tagged' along and therefore the US and not Pak is to blame for the unfortunate predicament Pak has been for some time baffles an educated maind.
Steroids have medical value but if used indiscriminately they leave permanent effects - this is exactly what is happening in Pak today. Just because a particulartype & dose of steroid worked in the 80's against the Soviets it was assumed that they were the magic wand and panacea to all Pak ills. with little or no concern to the fact that the proverbial " Ghara' must fill some day. That " some day ' is now upon us.
This happened because there was no public debate or disclosure of national policy and the ISI and thosewith vested interests made money on the side
The acid has begun to eat into the container, it needs to be purged and its maufacture stopped .
" Tagged along " ? .....Is Pak a child that it tagged along without realising the consequences of what it was doing ?
We need to get real.
There are no free lunches in this world and you are delivered exactly what you order.
