It’s NOT Bud’s fault that subsequent administrations effed that up. Frankly he was RIGHT. But the US for too long has played the money man with out offering real game changing support.

That’s the nature of geopolitics at times, but it doesn’t mean I like it.

McFarland is a heavyweight endorsement.

Disagree completely. Pakistan is a black hole that, because it is Islamic, will never be a reliable partner, much less bring a return on investment. I'd rather buck up India and make Pakistan somebody else's problem.

The "nature of geopolitics" has been fraught with the tyranny of the urgent, and way lacking in long term historical and cultural perspective.
