FATF stands for Finishing America-Taliban Fight

The Express Tribune: In the movie Limitless, Bradley Cooper tells Robert Deniro, “Share prices aren’t really based on how the company works, it’s about how mass psychology works.” Pakistan’s being on the FATF grey list and its exit from it isn’t really about whether or not Pakistan is successfully curbing terror financing, but about how Washington’s psychology works. While one quid pro quo is driving the impeachment trial in Washington, another one is driving America’s exit from Afghanistan.

Truth be told, the Paris-based body doesn’t aim to curb terror financing which by the way would be achieved much better by not providing aid to and doing business with terrorist states such as India and Israel. The ulterior motive is that the FATF is a whip to ensure Pakistan’s help in achieving a face-saving deal in Afghanistan. That quid pro quo is what could eventually drive Pakistan out of this grey list, provided Pakistan plays its cards right.
