LeT in Pakistan's strategy

ASHLEY TELLIS of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace states that Lashkar-e-Taiba's global presence and its sponsorship by the Pakistani military and ISI due to a similar ethnic composition and ideological sympathies enhanced the prospect of major war and global consequences. In an article for Yale Global, "Pakistan and the Afghanistan End Game", he states that Washington had now reached the conclusion that LeT represents a threat to America’s national interests while Pakistan's military leaders continued to harbor the illusion that their current strategy of unleashing terrorism would enervate India, push it out of Afghanistan, and weaken US stabilization efforts there and such a strategy would come to nought.
