Pissed Off Pakistan Gets Paid

Let?s finish up this plaid Af-Pak mini-series with a final furious summary and chaotic catch-up of current events. In the last 2 weeks, the Pakistanis re-opened their border to allow NATO supply lines to resume running through their territory, AND the US just wrote Pakistan a $2 billion check for foreign aid?.what a coincidence! NOT!

The Avenger also tries his best to empathize and explain the reasons why the Pakistanis are so passionately pissed at the US/NATO?and offers several succinct scenarios which have arisen since the NATO invasion of Afghanistan which have served to totally tank US/Pakistani relations.
