US Pledges Emergency Aid to Pakistan

Good. Yes, that is my reaction. This aid is fortunately to help with the humanitarian crises in the northwest as opposed to military aid. That is what the US needs to be doing in order to gain the trust of Pakistanis and boost its reputation so as to gain more support for the fight against the Taliban.


In case you doubt that the crisis is vast, the BBC (and many other news sources) have reported that the refugees from the latest fighting number as many as around 1.5 million.
