Impassioned debate about whether the Islamic Republic of Pakistan is a true U.S. ally or is complicit in hiding the now-deceased terrorist Osama bin Laden continues on Capitol Hill—and, according to a review of contracting records, the delivery of military and other aid to that nation continues relatively unimpeded in the meantime.

The types of aid flowing to Pakistan range from airport equipment in support of U.S.-provided F-16 fighter bombers to the funding of research into the causes of stuttering among the Pakistani people.

The various Pakistani governments that have arisen has always been following US orders out of complete fear of their own destruction. They already sent over 3,000 of their own soldiers to die in this war on terror killing their own people under US orders, they have CIA all over their own country killing people and for what anyone else knows possibly causing the terror bombings throughout their country that's killed thousands.  All the AID to Pakistan sure helped the corrupt gov't of Pakistan which is always controlled by gangsters. Stop the US aid sure, but at the same time stop bombing the country and pull out all military/special forces out completely. Maybe that's just a dream.
