DON’T TELL US WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR $$
Good ol' John Kerry. Busy sticking his aristocratic schnoz in places it doesn't belong (think Charlie Wilson's War only not intentionally), and ending up getting bitch slapped again.
"The US should not put conditions on an expected substantial increase in US aid to its ally Pakistan, Pakistan's prime minister told visiting US Senator John Kerry on Monday.
"Nuclear-armed Pakistan is crucial to US efforts to stabilise neighbouring Afghanistan and to maintain peace in South Asia.
"Pakistan objects to missile strikes by pilotless US drones on militants in Pakistan, saying they violate its sovereignty and are counter-productive in fighting terrorism.
"Pakistan has also been angered by US accusations[sic] elements in its military's Inter-Services Intelligence Agency had contact with, or even provided support to, militants."

NEWS FROM THE NEW WARFRONT
Let’s see …
Indonesia
In the ever-ongoing capitulation of American ideals, new Sec State Hillary Clinton, while in Indonesia — once home to our president — said, according to AP, she “… intends to announce plans to step up U.S. engagement with Southeast Asia in particular, stressing the growing importance of a region that often felt slighted by the Bush administration.”
The last time that was said, we ended up in a land-war in Southeast Asia, as I recall.
Why we want to “rehabilitate America's image abroad, especially with Muslims” is beyond me, but that’s the New States of America for ya’.
Pakistan
Pakistan signed a peace agreement with the Taliban, essentially ceding the Swat Valley-area to 5th century tribal clerics, a.k.a., the Taliban. Apparently the Pakistanis have bought into the Chamberlain Policy of defeating aggression — just like the former-US has shown it will do.
We all know how well that worked the last time, don’t we?
