Pakistan, ‘Land of the Pure’, remains a country of contradictions. A bastion of radical Islam trying to change to a modern state. We examine some of the undercurrents threatening the stability of this Atomic nation. Up in the Himalayas, at an altitude of 6,000 meters, a bizarre sort of war is being waged. 1,000 Pakistani soldiers face off against 3,000 Indian soldiers for control of the Siachen Glacier, biggest reserve of fresh water available. With 70% of the population of both India and Pakistan depend upon this water supply any change to its status could be catastrophic. We filmed an exclusive report with Pakistani Special Forces.
