You may be right on this but I'd like to keep all options open. For more than six decades we've tried to solve Kashmir issue but failed to get international support where as the adversaries have gained territory abusing the WoT window that opened after 9/11.
AQ has the potential to become a bigger nightmare for any country than ISI or PA. Why not use them as natural ally of the Kashmiri's and reclaim FATA and SWAT as both are integral part of Pakistan where as Kashmir is still waiting for their fundamental right to have a pleb which might never come untill something drastic happens. Next peace deal with the militants should be designed to deal with Kashmir Insurgency, a free passage to AJK away from the Afghan border. This will ease attacks in the bordering area and will halt cross border insurgency which is upsetting NATO and USA.
AQ can never take over Pakistan but Kashmir is a different story.
Knowing what we do of AQ methodology, they will not restrict their operations to Kashmir. IN their effort to 'free' kashmir, they will probably target places like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Gandhinagar, etc, to gain maximum exposure and impact. This will obviously lead to a backlash in Kashmir, against muslims in Bharat, and maybe some more sabre rattling along the Border.
The advantage would be that Pakistan knows Bharat will never do anything more than sabre rattling, deploying troops, and shouting through their media. That seems to be the extent of their dig vijaya.
