US lawmakers threaten to suspend aid

[Kyusuibu Honbu]

Indians know that this war OF terror is destroying Pakistan therefore they would like Pakistan to be part of this war OF terror for a long time.

Pakistan's ambivalent stance on WOT is destroying your nation from the inside.

 

[Solomon2]

This can be a blessing in disguise for Pakistan. US needs to stop aid to Pakistan and Pakistan needs to get out of this war OF terror and stop NATO supply routes.

Does that mean Pakistan will stop supplying and sheltering terrorists, too?

Only bharatis want Pakistan to be dependent on U.S. aid -

Pakistanis have come to America with cup in hand for generations. More often than not the help we have provided has been over Indian objections. Why aren't you ashamed to write such a thing, Omar?

 

[Prometheus]

Please quit this non sense that the bharatis say very often. End the WoT and see how long groups like TTP last and how long bomb blasts last.

Plz care read the comment of Mr.Ahmed.

He agrees with my this "non-sense" and made very good points
G'day mate

Seriously, joking, and humor aside, suspend aid. We need a whole new army, and new intelligence agency. This so called Pakistani intelligence agency "ISI" and army is no longer credible. I am disgusted to be a Pakistani. Because of this, Pakistanis living abroad and in Pakistan have to live with humiliation and terrorist jokes. Great job ISI and Pak military. Osama Bin laden living in a mansion neighboring PMA.

Me too, I am not going to disclose my association with Pakistan ever again.

A big F U to the terrorists at ISI and PA, these whores should be taken care of.

SC and T-Faz (and other of a similar mindset):

Please note, for all my criticism of Pakistan's faults, one CANNOT ever give up on one's identity that easily. I, for one, will remain who I am, a PROUD Pakistani-American, who owns up to both these great countries. And I always will.

The important thing is to channel all this shock, grief and realization into something REFORMATIVE. It will not be easy, and things do look dark, but they are not impossible.

The military and civilian government, they do not want reforms that reduce their power, wealth, and influence. They are afraid that without Islamization the idea of Pakistan will collapse. Yet you reject all of this. Your identity as a Pakistani is secure and you want honest government.

That's heap good medicine. Do you think there is some way you can bottle it and send it to Pakistan?

 

[Muhammad-Bin-Qasim]

Despite all my dislike for T Faz nonsensical secularism... I do think he has a point... Pakistanis and Pak Army specially should reject mindless association to violent groups who want to bring change thru chaos and bloodshed...

 

[Muhammad-Bin-Qasim]

Has nt it been suspended already?

Quick... cant wait for this poison to be stopped making Zardari all fat like a bull frog...

I am trying my best!

 

[kawaraj]

it's so funny that those US congressman didn't know they are borrowing huge money from china to fund their own welfare and even military expenses.

china hold 1.5 trillion US debt, and how much US has aided to Pakistan?

 

[53fd]

Suspend the aid. They'll come crawling back to Pakistan, especially when Pakistan gets money directly from China than the indirect channel of China---> US----> Pakistan

 

[skyisthelimit]

Only bharatis want Pakistan to be dependent on U.S. aid and we all know how much bharatis care for the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

TTP was formed only in 2007, there was no such thing as TTP before U.S. invasion of Afghanistan, and according to the Army chief TTP is weaker than ever.

The best thing for Pakistan would be to get out of this war OF terror.

And the world is going to declare Pakistan a terrorist state just for not allowing NATO a route supply through Pakistani territory? Then why hasn't Iran be declared a terrorist state.

Pakistan's economy will drastically improve once war OF terror is out of Pakistan. Pakistan was in a much better shape when it wasnt involved in this war OF terror. Pakistan was even in a much better shape when US placed sanctions on Pakistan. This aid and being America's ally in war OF terror is causing more harm to Pakistan than any good especially when U.S. doesnt recognize and appreciate the sacrafices Pakistan has made in this war OF terror.

Indians know that this war OF terror is destroying Pakistan therefore they would like Pakistan to be part of this war OF terror for a long time.

Sometimes we members at PDF wonder, how come a guy like you with such strategic thinking and knowledge is doing in the US of A.........which he hates so much......

i wish you did come to ground zero reality in pakistan and do something good for the country itself.....

its good to have a big mouth ..... but we should also show acts instead of trying to motivate others negatively.

 

[RazorMC]

How much of this grand old aid have we actually received ??
The US may or may not cut off the aid, but there is no reason to suggest that they will sever the ties completely.

Last time they put us under pressure, we tested the nukes and worked with China more than ever.

The bigger threat to the US is not related to one or two countries, rather the growing shift away from the US that many countries in the world are now undertaking. See Venezuela, China, Iran, Turkey, Russia and now Pakistan.

IMO US should cut off Pakistan’s aid. This will not be such a bad thing and would serve two purposes.

Firstly, Pakistanis will have to cut down non-essential imports and expedite exploitation of own resources. This will necessitate austerity measures but for how long can we rely on US hand-outs?

Secondly, with little or no leverage, US wont’ be able to pressurize GOP into doing what is not in Pakistan’s interest.

Pakistan State will soon be 64 years old; don’t you think it is about time Pakistanis learn to fly by themselves?

Agree with your post.
I suggest importing oil from Iran who is accepting non-dollar payments. We save reserves while obtaining oil via land. This will greatly reduce the impact from India blocking Pakistan's sea lanes in war-time.

 

[airuah]

no matter what noise your army makes regarding the drone attacks they dont do anything to prevent it ....ever wondered why ....may be all the aid is being channeled there without your knowledge......may be thats why Pakistani people never hear of the aid or reap the benefits of it......so as long as the aid goes to the Pakistan army's hands .....you will never hear of the aid......and the Pakistan army will not want aid money to stop so the threat that the US is giving is not to the People of Pakistan but probably its army....and am sure the army will not want the aid money to stop flowing even if it is against national interests......
