It sure seems that no matter what happens Pakistan is losing the fight and are slipping further into the hands of the Taliban !
....
KARACHI, May 4 (Reuters) - An outburst of ethnic violence in Pakistan's commercial capital Karachi in recent days killed at least 27 people, as tension between the dominant Mohajir community and ethnic Pashtuns from the northwest boiled over.
The violence in the city of more than 16 million people reflects tension across the country as the mostly Pashtun Pakistani Taliban step up attacks from their strongholds in the northwest on the Afghan border.
The clashes will add to concern nuclear-armed Pakistan is becoming more unstable as President Asif Ali Zardari and Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai prepare to meet U.S. President Barack Obama in Washington on Wednesday.
Karachi is a major entry point for military supplies shipped on by land to Afghanistan for the U.S.- and NATO-led anti-insurgency effort.
