...Muslim country, Washington and Islamabad quickly rediscovered each other. That rediscovery was at the heart last week of the warm greeting in Washington given by President Reagan to Pakistan's unelected President since 1977, Mohammed Zia ul-Haq. With his good looks, set off by an invariable charcoal tunic, and his ready grin and seemingly reasonable attitude, Zia staged an energetic performance. His intention: to establish a highly visible presence for his country and elicit from the Reagan Administration a renewed commitment for political and economic...

Says an admiring islander of Hunt: "He knew us before, he knows our problems, he knows the way of life we had before...
...strong Soviet occupation force. Last month, in the largest operation since their December 1979 invasion of Afghanistan, the Soviets tried to root out the well-disciplined mujahedin of the lush Panjshir Valley, north of Kabul. TIME's William Dowell spent 22 days, disguised in a native tunic and baggy pantaloons, trekking over 16,000-ft. passes with a guerrilla caravan in order to witness the combat. Dowell's report...
