In the past 18 months 70,000 Pakistani troops have been engaged in almost daily skirmishes in the tribal areas in an attempt to curtail cross-border raids by Islamic militants against US forces in Afghanistan.

That is giving way too much credit to the PAK Army then it deserves - (while they have done some good work, and about as much as can be expected in general....they have certainly not been actively engaging on a daily basis...not even close).

Don't they need some new, glass-surfaced parking lots in Pakistan? I'm sure we could see our way to funding that. All we need are some bogus jihadists to place the crosshairs.
