US bill links military aid to A Q Khan

LAHORE: United States assistance for Pakistans war against Al Qaeda and the Taliban and Pakistans nuclear weapons are not connected, a State Department spokesman said on Monday. We really have two separate issues, he said. I wouldnt link these two issues: the idea of our providing an assistance package and the fact that Pakistan has a nuclear capability.
