I Pray That India, Pakistan Go To War: Dar
<b>Michael Krepon</b> talked to Abdul Majid Dar about the charges of being an agent of the Indian security forces by the Pakistan-based leaders of Hizbul Mujahideen and his hopes for the future.
You are now a public figure but you are still living underground. Does this feel strange?
The pressures you now face must be quite different from when you commanded field operations for the Hizbul Mujahideen here.
Can you successfully combat character assassination underground?
You talk about a peace process, but you do not call for an end to militancy. Why?
What are the key elements of a peace process?
India and Pakistan seem far away from these ideas. A war seems quite possible.
Elections are coming up in Jammu and Kashmir—which you will not be contesting. How, then, do you intend to serve the people?
So how can this work?
When did you begin to think this way?
