WASHINGTON: Once again in a pathetic bid to 'win the hearts and minds' of the Pak people the gullible Obama Administration is pumping billions of dollars in aid to Pak's flood victims. In its desperation to remain friends America repeatedly allows itself to be used. Hey Mr. Obama remember when you said you wouldn't be hoodwinked? Well what do you think your Pak buddies are doing? As long as the Army and Militants rule the ordinary citizens will have no minds and no hearts to win. They will remain ignorant, ungrateful, brain-washed, helpless, ingrates. Wake up and smell the manure.
Mr. Obama must realize that as long as he deals with the Pak Army there is no way to win the people's trust. The only so-called hearts and minds being won here belong to the thieving thugs and terrorists who make up the de facto Pak government. These are the same goons who used US arms aid - not to fight the Taliban - whom they consider to be their 'assets' - but rather re-directed it towards beefing up armaments to fight India.
As floods rage Pak's idiot Prez is cavorting in Europe; the puppet PM is flopping hither and thither as his puppet master Army Chief makes him dance the floppy. Militant 'charities' are out in full force despite being banned. Any international aid received: food, water, vaccines, medicines - is seized by the Army-militant combine for their own use while victims are told that this is an infidel Hindu-Zionist-Amriki plot to poison them.
Having destroyed the Middle East and Central and South America with its unwarranted meddling the US is now repeating another deadly mistake in South and Central Asia.
Mr. Obama tell your Pak Army buddies to open up their coffers and use the trillions of dollars you have already given to look after their people.
And if you want to throw money at anyone throw it at poor, starving, homeless and sick Americans. They could sure use it.
