The Paks blame this all on the US. We just left after the mujadeen drove the Rusians out of Afghan. We are unreliable allies.

Well, the USA has learned we cannot simply support a government against an enemy and leave creating a power vacuum. We must help establish a pro-democratic regime or we shouldn't bother engaging in these affairs. Hence, our committment for better or worse in Iraq. I would have hope in Iraq, but a lot of anti-Israeli and Western resentment in general still exist amoungst current government officials there. What we get at the end of it, may only be marginally better then what Saddam was. Time will tell...
Please. We had a transactional relationship with Pakistan. We looked the other way with their drug peddling and nuclear dealings and gave them billions in return for their help. What did they expect? A marriage?
