It seems as if everything is now okay between Pakistan's rogue and terrorist military and its political arm, the Inter Services Intelligence agency and Uncle Sam, following the visit of I.S.I. chief Lt. Gen. Zaheerul Islam to Washington DC last week. No problem if Pakistan hid Osama bin Laden for more than a decade, transporting him safely from Kandahar as the U.S. launched Operation Enduring Freedom to the safe house next door to the Pakistan Military Academy in Kakul. Not a single general lost his job.
It is okay that one after another two C.I.A. station chiefs in Islamabad were outed by the I.S.I. and an attempt was made on the life of alleged C.I.A. contractor Raymond Davis in Lahore.
It is okay if Warren Weinstein, 70, a development specialist, remains in the custody of the Taliban.
It is okay if Pakistan's I.S.I. treated Husain Haqqani, one of the most brilliant ambassadors in Pakistan history like a dirt bag, accusing him of working for the C.I.A. It is okay that Pakistan arrested and disappeared a hero of the United States, Dr. Shakeel Afridi, and then sentenced him to 33 years in prison. His crime was he helped trace Osama bin Laden.
It is okay, that Pakistan troops and Frontier Corps are acting as backbone for the Taliban and al Qaeda and are determined to see the N.A.T.O. defeated in Afghanistan. It is okay I.S.I. killed more than 25 top Taliban commanders who wanted peace with Kabul in the last eight months alone.
It is okay that the I.S.I. masterminded the attack on the U.S. embassy in Afghanistan that left former ambassador Ryan Crocker staring straight into the eyes of death.
It is okay that Pakistan used more than $12 billion dollars of precious U.S. taxpayers monies that could have been spent on education and health in the U.S. to fight the war against terror, but was still backing the jihadi networks.
It is okay that Pakistan has been in the forefront to get Aafia Siddiqui, avowed enemy of the U.S., released.
It is okay that Pakistan says it will never surrender the Haqqani network.
It is okay that Pakistan has the fourth largest military in the world and one determined to engage in jihad to usher in the rule of Allah all over the world.
It is okay that Pakistan today has the fastest growing nuclear arsenal in the world and considers Christians, Jews, Hindus as infidels and one of the main ideas behind its nuclear weapons is to confront the U.S., India and Israel.
It is okay that Pakistan has tens of thousands of religious seminaries that produce a fertile crop of suicide bombers each year under the watchful eyes of the I.S.I.
It is okay that Pakistan treats Christian and Hindu women as sex slaves, forcing them to marry and convert against their wish. It is okay that most American taxpayers are Christians, but Christian woman Aasia Bibi's fate hangs in the balance just because she is a Christian.
It is okay that Pakistan is an Islamic republic where only a Muslim can become the head of government and the head of state.
It is perfectly all right if Pakistan conducts one of the most barbaric atrocities on Baloch civilians who are demanding freedom, forcibly disappear them, torture them, execute them and dump their bodies in hundreds.
It seems okay if Pakistan has turned one of its largest Balochistan territory into the world capital of enforced disappearances.
Forget Patrick-Leahy Amendment, welcome Lt Gen Zaheerul Islam. Here please take the rewards for being our enemy. We are enhancing the fees for NATO trucks plying through Pakistan from $250 per truck to $1,800 per truck. In addition take $1.18 billion for killing the American soldiers from the boon docks in Afghanistan. They are no good at all as they are getting addicted to Afghan hash to cope with their P.T.S.D. Good riddance.
Sorry Pakistan, if we killed your troops who were supporting the Taliban, but of course it is no problem if the man who killed more than 3,000 Americans on that dark September day was your state guest enjoying VVVIP level security, generally reserved for foreign heads of government.
We are generous Americans and amnesia is good in our world of quickies.
