#8 i was also gonna ask why we keep giving AID too pakistan.

The bulk of our supplies go through their territory. Besides, we can't launch air strikes against the Pakistani Taliban without the Pakistani government's acquiescence - it's the reason our drones operate with impunity without being shot down in Pakistani airspace.

#9 In essence, you can consider the aid rent for the use of Pakistani land routes and airspace. We've handed to them less than $10b in total aid. An invasion of Pakistan to secure those routes would cost hundreds of billions, not to mention thousands of dead GI's.

#10 Ogabe criticized aid to Pakistan before being elected, and went as far as talking about an invasion. Now that he's in the hot seat, he is continuing the payments to Pakistan. Why? Because the alternative is much more expensive.
