I remember my dad telling me - years before I cared - that the Paks were our "friends" because they hated India due to India's rejection of Islam, and we just had to kiss up to them to send the Soviets a message... but cozying up to them was a bad bargain, because "Pakistan is a lunatic asylum."

You knew, dad. You knew.

Islam is a lunatic asylum, Hindus aren’t much better but maybe a little, we should just cut ties with both of them and be friends at a distance.

We should just give free internet and free porn to both countries. They would starve to death within a month.

Pakistan continues to supply al-Qaeda in Afghanistan to this day, that’s why they’re still so strong there.

All the major al-Qaeda leaders are living quite nicely in Peshawar, thanks to the Pakistani Government, our “great ally” in the War on Terror

We can stop the bleeding and cut our losses though.

We can also look into whether there is a way to hold accountable those that did this to us.

It’s news that their PM is admitting it.

Now it isn’t just an open secret.

Where was bin Laden killed?

Abbottabad, Pakistan:

The raid on bin Laden’s compound in was launched from Afghanistan. U.S. military officials said that after the raid U.S. forces took the body of bin Laden to Afghanistan for identification, then buried it at sea within 24 hours of his death in accordance with Islamic tradition.

For 90%, true. For the remaining 10% it would be the left one.
