A new round of conflicts and instability?

While the focus is on Iraq, and about the violence going down there, a couple of serious developments elsewhere that can have wide implications:
It appears that Pakistan's ISI was indeed actively assisting the Taliban in the bomb blast outside the Indian embassy in Kabul. Both Afghanistan and India are tightening the squeeze on Pakistan. And the US too is pressuring Pakistan. It is a country with a weak government, a president (Musharraf) pushed to corner. Earlier I commented that Pakistan might be ripe for a military coup, except for the fact that Musharraf is already in pseudo-power.
And, Indian and Pakistani forces traded fire at the Line of Control, raising doubts on how long the five-year old ceasefire agreement will last.

All is not well on that front.
