				How about witholding Pakastani monies?
			 
 Instead of paying the Pakastanis untold millions a month, maybe we should be taking care of our own, like those who are suffering the floods, loss of homes and land, and have no coverage from the thieving insurance industry..... |

				 | calling them thieves is an understatement 
according to the specialists we need the intel 
that money buys
 
problem is ........it buys allot more than intel 
when they get a hold of it....   |

				 | I say pull the plug on any financial aid going to the middle east! "F" em all!! You say it was money well spent to preserve our "Interests"??? Well......given the $4,000,000,000 we send to Pakistan each year for....."Interests"......them holding up their end as poorly as they have has cost us untold additional BILLIONS of dollars in a 10 year search for OBL!!!! So why send them our money??? Oil you say??? Take all the billions of dollars we will save from not sending it to the middle east and secure our own oil by drilling..........then just let the middle eastern countries rub against each other until they ignite and burn!!!!! |

Almost time to get our fish on!!!   |

				 | Please re-read my last post Larry. With sarcasm dripping.....to underscore that it indeed is not well spent, but an ongoing screwing... |

				 well spoken BF 
 all these monies being spent and we cannot catch a break 
on a per barrel basis....
 
makes you think that the Saudi's with OPEC need to re examine 
what it is that is protecting them ESPECIALLY Kuwait that would've been  
over run and Looted if not for the    
Even tho TRUMP was full of HOT air i believe he was  
absolutely correct in saying they owe us cheap oil........ |

 |  That's for sure, look at Gemany and Japan, at one time our arch enemies.
 
If we are paying for intel that's one thing, but they are playing both ends 
to the middle. Pay them per piece of info. |
