   THE whistleblower website Wikileaks released sensitive documents alleging that the Pakistan’s Army Chief Ashfaq Parvez Kayani’s opposition led to the conflict on the Kerry-Lugar Bill as it was going to result in greater civilian control on the military, a private TV channel reported on Tuesday. A correspondence from the head of the French Interagency Pak-Afghan cell, Jasmine Zerinini, is also included in the new secret documents released by WikiLeaks. The correspondence sheds light on the Pakistan Army’s policies in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (Fata). According to the released documents, General Kayani has learnt from the mistakes made by former military ruler Pervez Musharraf. He is using the parliament and the government while staying in the background, the documents allege. In this way, he is becoming an obstacle to any major change in the country’s policy pertaining to Fata. Zerinini’s correspondence also stated that the West has lost the opportunity to crush the Afghan Taliban with Pakistan’s help. The correspondence stated that with aid coming in from the Gulf States, the Haqqani network has grown too strong, that defeating it will not be easy for the Pakistani military.
