A US Congressional panel has frozen $700m (£450m) in aid to Pakistan until it gives assurances it is tackling the spread of homemade bombs in the region.

I wish our Govt would take note but go further and permanently cancel all aid to this nest of vipers

I think it's more likely that some of the money foreign based Pakistani's send home is syphoned off to help fund activities against the west rather than the aid money western governments send . Maybe the UN should ban any foreign currency transfers by private individuals into Pakistan.

90% of the worlds H is still produced in Afghan and conduited out into pakistan en-route to the west,I went to a village in Pakistan once,a stones throw from the Khyber-pass,the village had only 2 sources of income,both were readily available and on display in numerous shops,both were quite deadly,drugs and weapons.

Those Madrassas(nothing to do with curry I guess?)should be bombed,there are loads all over Pakistan,all brainwashing kids,they are religious schools that indocrinate the pupils,the Pakistani government do nothing about them.:rolleyes:

There are probably loads all over this country too.

Ooooh, mustn't discuss such things in case we from the 90% majority upset someone in the minority muslim immigrant community. :rolleyes:

We are now gagged as far as free speech is concerned, obliged to tolerate them and their primitive belief system wherever they decide to put down roots in our villages, town and cities, demanding their 'right' to interfere with OUR traditions and culture, and to pick and choose which of our laws they obey. :NoNo:

Try doing that in their countries in the 21st century.
