I think the difficulties in intelligence gathering and preemption were highlighted well by the underlined part in the editorial I posted above.If you don't consider this a security failure, surely you can consider this an intelligence failure. The fact our intelligence apparently was not aware of this planned attack which obviously required several weeks and perhaps months of training and preparation did not manage to foil this orchestrated plot, hence preventing this situation. One of the main purposes of having an advance intelligence agency is exactly that to protect the homeland from enemies both foreign and domestic and to prevent such attacks, as the intelligence agency serves as the eyes and ears and covert weapon of the Nation.
BREAKING NEWS:
Operation resumed at 6AM. Commandos have infiltrated the building. Most of the compound has been cleared. -Major General Athar Abbas (DG ISPR)-
On a side note , we should not brush aside the possibility of involvment of US security firms being involved in setting up this attack. The US was recetly humiliated in Afghanistan when one of its bases in Kunar province got attacked and they had heavy losses there. Anytime they take losses in Afghanistan they blame Pakistan for it and I would not be one bit surprised if this attacke was planned and funnded by some undercover US security agency.
