If in anger USA can retaliate against Pakistan (as is evident from the below mentioned news) why can’t Pakistan retaliate for abduction and wrongful confinement of Ms Aafia Siddiqui and for not allowing its elected parliamentarian Sheikh Rashid to over fly America?
Why can’t Pakistan stop Ground Lines of Communication (GLOC) and use of its air space by USA for Afghanistan?
Pakistan must remember that it can only be insulted to the extent Pakistan will permit..!
To please the USA we even cancelled Iran gas project which would have produced cheap electricity more than a big dam like Kalabagh dam. But in return Americans gifted India with civil nuclear energy agreement gift and object to Chinese nuclear help to Pakistan.
Is this the way America should treats Pakistan which is a major non NATO ally in the war on terror forgetting that this country has given more sacrifices in men and material than the combined losses of 49 NATO countries in the War on Terror (WOT) in Afghanistan?
What have the Western countries done in rebuilding the war torn Pakistan?
