3. I read the book "Ghost Wars" about the CIA's involvement
in that region of the country from 1979 to 2001. It's widely known that Pakistan LOVED Mujahadeen Islamic fundamentalists (aka suicide bombers) because they were completely willing to give up their lives to fight Pakistan's enemy in Kashmir (India). So Pakistan's intelligence agency (ISI) worked hand in hand with the CIA to recruit 10's of thousands of these fighters for both of their respective wars (Afghanistan Vs. Russia + Pakistan Vs. India in Kashmir).

Point is, Pakistan is the Mecca of America's sworn enemy. Not Afghanistan. Pakistan is where the terrorists/insurgents/freedom fighters are all funded from.

Hope Bush has fun during his visit.
