"We can no longer afford this foolishness," Congressman Dana Rohrabacher said after introducing the ‘Defund United States Assistance to Pakistan Act of 2011’ in the House of Representative.
“The time has come for us to stop subsidizing those who actively oppose us. Pakistan has shown itself not to be America’s ally,” he said.
The bill says that terrorist outfits based in Pakistan, especially Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), has been responsible for terrorist strikes inside India including the MUmbai terrorist attack in November 2008, in which 166 people including six American nationals were killed.
The bill outlines several accounts of Pakistan’s duplicitous behavior toward the US including recent reports of Pakistani leadership lobbying Afghan President Hamid Karzai to move away from “imperial” America and to embrace Communist China, said a statement issued by the Congressman.
In 1998, Pakistan’s military and intelligence services facilitated the transfer of an unexploded American Tomahawk missile recovered by Taliban to China.
Rohrabacher demanded immediate return of the debris for fear of American military secrets being compromised.
“If this is not done immediately, it is probable, given Pakistan’s history, that our technology has already found its way into the hands of the Communist Chinese military that is buying, building, and stealing the necessary military technology to challenge the United States,” said Rohrabacher.
The bill prohibits assistance to Pakistan under any provision of law and would take effect on the date of enactment.
How many Pakistanis care or dont care about this bill? If you oppose this bill, please say why and if you are for this bill, please elaborate.
:@: no wonder. yet another attack on our self esteem and ego. lets starve and die of hunger. better than being bullied forever and ever and fed on a bheek.
Oh please amreeka pls keep your aid shade away from us bad bad pakis, there are many countries around the world more poor then bad pakis they deserve your aid ka package.
P.S: Our top choors oops I mean politicians will be pissed since all this aid ka drama is to fill their swiss accounts don't make no difference to ordinary Joe.
Pakistani awam does not care about aid and they do not want to be an American ally. Its the decision makers and Pak Fauj that is more interested in aid and want to be in American tent.
There is a major disconnect between Pakistani awam and Pakistani rulers.
This bill if it passes can put Pakistan's ability to service its debts and pay critical imports in a near deathknoll. The only avenue open then will be to get funding from either China or Saudi Arabia both of which come with severe conditions.
Compare that fate against the condition of returning the damaged chopper and providing access to the OBL harem. Seems a simple decision!
are you indian guys are really concerned about pakistan or you get an INTENSE FEELING OF PLEASURE with such discussion?? just curious...nothing personal...

They imposed sanctions after Pakistan went nuclear. Pakistan survived and will again. So not really concerned. The day the bill passes we should kick out all the CIA officials in Pakistan and close all transit routes which are critical for the American army in Afghanistan. Two can play the game.
