Analysis Summary:

The article's claim that Pakistanis are weary of war with India due to economic and political issues has mixed accuracy. While the provided sources touch upon the complex relationship between India and Pakistan and internal issues within Pakistan, they don't directly confirm or deny the central claim about the Pakistani population's desire for peace. The article exhibits moderate bias by focusing on the negative aspects of Pakistan's situation and potentially oversimplifying public sentiment.

Detailed Analysis:

• Claim:** "For many across the country, economic struggles, political malaise and the fear of armed conflict with India now feel like parts of the same burden."
  • Verification Source #2: Mentions Pakistan's "Geopolitical Rent Seeking" following the 1971 war, which could be interpreted as contributing to economic struggles.
  • Verification Source #3: Indicates that Pakistanis may feel torn between sympathy and outrage regarding terrorism, which could contribute to political malaise.
  • Verification Source #1: Mentions improved relations between India and Pakistan, which could contradict the claim of widespread fear of armed conflict.
  • Verification Source #4: Highlights Pakistan's support for terrorist groups and past conflicts with India, which could support the claim of fear of armed conflict.
  • Verification Source #5: Mentions the need for contribution from politicians and world leaders in countries like Pakistan and India.
• Analysis:* The claim is partially supported by sources that describe the complex relationship between India and Pakistan, as well as internal issues within Pakistan. However, the sources do not directly confirm the extent to which Pakistanis specifically fear war with India or view it as a burden tied to economic and political issues.

Supporting Evidence/Contradictions:

• Verification Source #1: "This is a relationship between India and Pakistan that has improved..." This suggests a contradiction to the idea of widespread fear of armed conflict.
• Verification Source #2: "Following 1971 war (and starting from sometime before it actually), Pakistani state engaged in what can be called - Geopolitical Rent Seeking." This supports the idea of economic struggles within Pakistan.
• Verification Source #4: "In his August 2017 speech on Afghanistan, President Trump invoked the India ... war, as well as Pakistan-sponsored terrorist attacks in India…" This supports the idea of potential conflict between India and Pakistan.
• Verification Source #3: "Bush to Barack Obama talk tough with Pakistani President Pervez ... tough with al Qaeda, Pakistanis may feel torn between sympathy and outrage." This supports the idea of political malaise within Pakistan.
