Pakistan has sent troops to combat Taliban fighters, who have moved into an area only 100km from the capital, Islamabad. This came after the US accused Pakistan of giving in to the Taliban in Swat, where the government has allowed the Taliban to implement Islamic law. Al Jazeera's Hoda Abdel-Hamid reports from Islamabad on what some are calling "the Talibanisation of Pakistan".
