I don't know of anyone I've talked to through the years that wanted any money given to other countries or governments. Meanwhile the leadership has lost it's own backyard. It's not 'if' it's 'when' this whole thing is coming down. 'We the people' deserved a whole lot more these years than what we got. Broken trust with lawyers and attorneys in elected office. Oh well, empires rise and empires fall.
I wish Sherry Rehman would get so mad he would make Pakistani turn down all US aid.
To hell with all of those countries over there.Our country is broke and most importanly our G.I.'s are getting killed each day and they are getting free money from us.There is something wrong with this picture.We need government people who have got some ba–s.,not these crooked weak kneed lolipops we have.The rest of the world is sucking us dry.Jim Thomas Phx.Az.
Why are the Pakistani's, not mad, that the US has not stop given then billion of dollars in all in aid.
The Pakistanis hide Osama in plain site for years, while pretending to be our allies. No apologies. I am not an Obama fan, but he got this right. Had he gone through diplomatic channels we would have lost Bin Laden again.
If they want to hold our equipment hostage then President Obama needs to withhold the 3 billion in aid he requested for Pakistan.
If we did not intend on harming any Pakistani's, the US should apologize.
But those dead Pakistanis DID intend to harm our soldiers - they shot at our helicopters to give cover to their Pakistani terrorist buddies, so we shouldn't apologize.
If those dead Pakistanis did intend to harm our soldiers, then why should we apologize?
We intended on harming whoever was trying to harm us.
