The American antiwar movement must understand that what is unfolding in Pakistan bears no resemblance to the failed-state proclamations of establishment hacks the world over. The danger is not at all that the country will fall to the Pakistani Taliban, drowned in a tidal wave of instability said to be cascading eastwards from Afghanistan.
