Why is our government always about 5 years behind the American people?

I never had faith that Pakistan or any of those middle east countries is a true ally of the USA.

When smaller nations don''t acquiesce to the demands of the US, it tends to make US officials feel as if leaders of such nations are being arrogant. After all, the US is generally used to getting it''s way, especially with smaller countries which have trouble resisting US pressure.

Maybe the US should give Pakistan another several Billion dollars in aid starting with this year. The US tact is that when all else fails, buy our way in. After all, the government can always force the middle class taxpayer to pay for stuff like that.

Maybe that''ll cause Pakistan to bow to all of wishes of the State Dept.

Pakistan was always untrustworthy. Most of the 9-11 conspirators have Pakistan connection. It always had army-cracy, never democracy. Our government always coddled them for what they are not.

...that''s because the taliban and Pakistani intelligence are really British agents. When are we going to learn who the real enemy is?

"Why shouldn''''t we trust the only country that recognized the taliban as Afganistan''''s legal government?"

Where''s Bin Laden?

In tribal lands somewhere on nice paid vacation using the generous donations of George W Bush via some shady channels through Islamabad.

This wouldn''''t be happening if the neocon morons hadn''''t decided to invade Iraq instead of taking care of Al Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

The US works with Pakistani intelligence for seven years since 9/11, but after the February 18 elections bring a democratic government, suddenly the US finds lots of problems with them. Quite suspicious.

On 04 November 2008 when the US realizes that another 4 years of Bush Lite will be the end to our magnificent nation. Voting for Obama may not create miracles, but it also won''t create a depression either!

I have never really trusted Pakistans''s agenda and it would appear that my suspicions are correct. Any country that is not going full-on to beat the taliban in their own country is not someone the USA should be trusting. We only give them lee-way due the fact that they have nukes and we are worried about who may get them. On the other hand - who can really trust the USA with Bush at the helm? Our wonderful country has gone to the dogs and another 4 years with McCain will see a war with Iran... I can''t believe the idiocy in our nation''s government. There are no simmple answers to the world''s woes, but another term of Bush Lite will insure the demise of the American way as we all know it (and love !).

`U.S. Losing Its Trust In Key Ally Pakistan`

The results from Pakistan don`t support U.S. trust! The assassination of Benazir Bhutto is yet another dark, cloudy and murky event in Pakistan`s shady relationship with the U.S. and based strictly on results Pakistan is full of it and hasn`t earned trust.

This is the same ISI Reagan used to fund those glorious Mujahedeen Freedom Fighters and Bin Laden that turned into the Taliban and Al Qaeda.

I thought NEORINOs loved Freedom Fighters and the ISI? Pakistan is our ally in the War on Terror, right?

CBS news has nothing else to do except doing propaganda against Pakistan in order to raise tensions between the public of the two neighbors (India & Pak).
If India is silent, who gave CBS the right to shout against them?
We, the Indians are happy and we are not requesting you to shout again and again, over and over. This topic is now obsolete.
