Attacks by Insurgents Surging in Afghanistan

Thanks to Pakistan's deal with the Taliban we are losing in Afghanistan as well:

Attacks by militants crossing into Afghanistan from Pakistan have tripled since September along portions of the border, a senior American intelligence official said[...]

So much for Bush's allies in Pakistan:

Staff Sgt. Ronald Locklear, one of the 120 American soldiers at the base, said fighters based in Pakistan “cross the border on a regular basis.” He said the base was being hit by rocket and mortar fire at least once a week. Officials said they had evidence that Pakistani border guards ignored infiltration of Taliban fighters.

Pakistan obviously isn't concerned about a U.S. response. They realize that without Pakistan's cooperation there will be no victory over al Qaeda:

American commanders say the surge in cross-border attacks has coincided with an agreement reached last September in which the Pakistani government pulled back its soldiers in the North Waziristan region in return for a pledge from tribal elders not to shelter militants or allow them to engage in illegal behavior.
