| Stung by a stunning leak of classified records indicating links between the ISI and the Taliban-al Qaeda network, the White House came out in defense of Pakistan, insisting that the US-Pak alliance has led to significant blows against al Qaeda leadership since 2009.
"Since 2009, the United States and Pakistan have deepened our important bilateral partnership. Counter- terrorism cooperation has led to significant blows against al Qaeda's leadership," National Security Advisor, Gen (rtd) James Jones, said in a statement.
The statement, however, added that the Pakistani establishment, including military and the intelligence agency, need to continue their "strategic shift" against insurgents.
Many of the documents posted by whistleblower Wikileaks strongly suggest that Pakistan's ISI may be helping Afghan insurgents plan and carry out attacks on US forces in Afghanistan and their Afghan government allies.
