No matter what Pakistan (or their notorious ISI department) does, no matter what any individual Pakistanis do, Pervez the Dictator is our 'Good Friend', so they won't go there.

11. I believe one of the financiers of Atta of 9/11 fame |
|
was the head of Pakistan's ISI. Of course, there's alot that won't be shown or revealed concerning 9/11, especially before any elections occur.
But no, we haven't been attacked by Iraqi terrorists yet except our military once it invaded.

|
every other country, don't they realize that they have been watching them for years and their hypocritical policies. Don't be surprised if we find something going on with India next, isn't this the country they are helping to get nuclear weapons. They have been watching them making deals and then stabbing others in the back or making them the fall guy.

19. Blame it on the Pakistani madrasses. About 10 years ago |
|
60 Minutes did a story about them. Hotbeds of radical Wabbibism financed by Saudis.
The message was that when foreign aid is dramatically cut, dangerous forces fill in the void. It was one one the best stories they ever ran.
