$5-$10 Billion to Pakistan
In the last few months it has been reported that the United States government has given between $5-$10 billion to Pakistan. This morning CNN is reporting that $10 billion has been given to Pakistan. Is anyone in the government making a good accounting of where this money has gone? Does anyone in our government know what the $5-$10 billion has been used to do? I know the money is supposed to be going toward fighting terrorism. However, I just want to know if anyone here in this country is keeping track of the money.

1. I now believe the our pnacer neocon military corporate admin has bought all coalition partners.
Not all gave soldiers - some gave intelligence - some prisons - some stopover and flyover privileges - some bases - there is a cornucopia of exchanges. It is no wonder that 444 (approx) money could not be accounted for at the DOD and some at HUD and all programs have been squuezed to pay for the sub-government - buying off nations, paying mercenaries, divvying up the riches among a relative few.

Let's see how it all plays out.

We need an insider Pakistani to tell us what is really going on over there.

2. What would do if you did have such an accounting?
Yell at the bums for not properly fighting and dying for Uncle Sam and the dollar bill in much greater numbers? Jeer for being ingrates who can't appreciate the value of America's support? What?

I know a lot of people are asking these questions, but I have my doubts as to whether the answers have been thought through.
