Displaced people are camping everywhere. Shelters of canvas and plastic sheeting line the edges of the highways linking Islamabad to Peshawar in the north-west of the country.
The roads are raised, a precious strip of dry land in a sea of stagnant floodwater and thick mud.
I stopped at one makeshift camp and a group of men rushed forward as soon as I got out of the car, crowding round.
One was a thin-faced man in his 40s called Iftikhar.
He pointed to the swamped ground beyond the railway tracks and the remains of his village. His house had been badly damaged, he said.
Even though the waters were starting to recede, it was too unstable for him to move back there with his six daughters.
We desperately need help from the government, so we can rebuild," he told me.

Right now would be a good time for the 100 million dollar project for the Ground Zero Mosque, to be shipped to help these dear Muslim Brethern.
What do you expect? Bush and Obama made all sorts of promises, now they are begging for more. This is what you get when you start nation building.
Tell them to pray to Allah! How much help has the Muslim countries given? Why is it that every Muslim country looks to Christian countries for help whenever things go wrong? Let the Muslims take care of the Muslims.
Your rapier wit is quite amazing. You’re quite the renaissance man. I bet you pour your wine out of the box before chugging it.
Indeed it does!
I agree.
Check out the decoy name here -

I wonder who he’s setting up?
I’m waiting for the release of noob’s latest CD - “Life is tough out there for a mouth breathing half wit, yo!”
(We were well on the way of capturing the Iraqis hearts, until Karpinski and Lyndee Englund decided to parade proud nude men around on leashes. Then the locals felt that we were mocking them, and things immediately turned ugly.)
Liberal clap trap in spades.
Grizzley, I don’t really know what your problem is?
Do I express sentiments about Pakistan that upset you?
Do you not like my handle?
Or are you just an A-Hole trying to make trouble?
I don’t know, so I’ll just go to bed.
Good night!
Bad Mohammed! No jizya!
We're broke. Pissed it away on people who will kill us in an instant. Even our own president hates and ignores the people he was hired to lead.
Let them starve, or drown, or kill each other. They are animals. Let them eat each other. We have our own problems.
We gotta be careful. Our next President might turn out to be isolationist.
.............Liberal clap trap in spades...........
Graybeard, go back to the Iraqi timeline.
We helped destroy the Saddam statues, we took over whole sections of Baghdad. Yes there were losses, beheadings, burned bodies on the bridge, all of that, bu we made great progress for a few months after that.
Then suddenly pictures came out of Abi Grahib prison, with pyramids of nude men, men paraded around by little female Lyndee with a cigarette in her puss.
We had make great progress, then the Sunni and Shia decided it was time for civil war, as the American’s were not our friends - they’re mocking us!
The next six years were living hell! I blame Karpinski and Englund and her ilk for upsetting the gains that we had made.
You may differ, and I will respect your opinion.
My problem is a foul mouthed, naive retread troll named Noob1999 is posting liberal clap trap and progressive communist talking points.
Do I express sentiments about Pakistan that upset you?
No, just the "unicorns, fairies and rainbows" bilge you spew.
I dont know, so Ill just go to bed.
That's probably for the best. You'll never win hearts and minds of your ideological opponents by posting, "screw you."
Good night!
Good night, Dane!
They were looking for anything to come up with to come after us, if we didn’t do it, they would have just made something up.
the whold world knows it...look at what O gave to Kenya..
if Ron Paul sounds okay, you really are whacked out!
If we're to believe Professor Larry Schweikart, a noted historian, attacks dropped after the scandal. The terrorists were terrified. “If they catch you, they will hand you over to their women!”
I don’t see much Muslim help coming from Muslim countries such as Abu Dhabi.
Expect a wave of Paki immigrants soon to join either the crowd at the mosque at GZ or the domestically trained muslim terrorists hiding in safe houses.
