You really think this is a result of just Obama in the last 2 yrs, and not something that has been building up for a longer time?

Do you ever tire of defending him?

To think that this is all Obama’s fault deflects evaluation of US policy; the Pakis have been in bed with the Chicoms for a very long time. The Gwadar project has been going on for a decade with talk of China having a naval presence even before Obama got on the senate.

I’m not defending him. That, to me, was a very naive statement. I just don’t believe that the world situation right now, is a result of an American president that’s been in office less than 2 yrs.

I think this has been building up for longer than 2 yrs.

Actually I don’t blame Barry for this one. It’s a natural move for the Pakis . . . China is their natural ally b/c China is already antigonistic to India, and India is the Paki’s main enemy. Likewise, we’re a natural ally of India. I’m guessing the Pakis are just “reading the writing on the wall” and expecting us to stop giving them $Billion, so now there’s no need to hold them back from natural alliances like this. There’s nothing left to loose.

Pakistan to China: Come build a naval base on our territory.

US to China: Go ahead. But hope you don’t mind a US base on the tip in India.

I don’t have a comment other than the obvious “this is bad”.

I hope US politicians are done calling Pakistan an “ally”. They are ally like you know who is a conservative.

So of course they still will be called an ally. ;d
