I'm not sure that this article warrants a "barf alert". This was a promise made to Pakistan in exchange for use of their airbases.

Yes, but the thought of monetary extraction for doing the right thing makes me very uncomfortable. What happens if the money runs out, or we are a little late with our payments?

Is Pakistan really reliable, especially when that country is teeming with hostile ISI agents and Islamic fanatics who hate us?

[Dog Gone]

It doesn't warrant a barf alert at all. This was part of the deal, and Pakistan isn't the wealthiest country in the world. The food, gasoline, and services they are providing are absolutely essential to our presence in the region.

Exactly.
