They got a bashing years before, and they got a bashing again recently when trying to establish control over these places.

Ok. I understand what you mean now. I already realized that, just wanted to clarify.

You are wrong when saying the money you give them does nothing and should stop. It does very much. What it does is that it helps them to assist the Taleban and buy them weapons and supplies - that are used against your soldiers (and ours, btw, as was seen on Saturday). America allows itself to get betrayed. Pakistan is no ally of yours - but a traitor. Partially he hides his treachery, but partially you accept to get deceived, so that illusions must not be given up you meanwhile grew fond of.

Ok, I meant that it is doing nothing to help. The funding
does need to be stopped, though.
