Hillary in Pakistan
Posted: Jul 18, 2010
Billions of dollars going out the door again? Watch for Monday's announcement.
Islamabad, Pakistan (CNN) -- U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton arrived in Pakistan early Sunday as Washington struggles to change its relationship with "one of the most critical countries in the world," according to a top U.S. official.
Clinton is on her way to Afghanistan, but the visit to Pakistan is just as important, said Richard Holbrooke, the special U.S. representative for Pakistan and Afghanistan.
The United States has an intense interest in what happens in the tribal regions on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, Holbrooke said. Al Qaeda is thought to be based in the region.
The region is among Washington's "highest priorities," Holbrooke said, but to make progress, "we need to change the core of the relationship" between the United States, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Clinton will announce a "massive" list of aid projects for Pakistan on Monday, according to a senior U.S. official who did not want to be named talking about the announcements before they are made.

"A massive list of aid projects." (sm) - Nikki
[ In Reply To ..]All that money can be invested in Pakistan, yet money can't be invested in AMERICAN CITIZENS who are unemployed.
Why don't we take our nose out of other countries' business and take care of our own people?
Exactly what I was thinking. It's ridiculous. - Backwards Typist
[ In Reply To ..]I think it's because they want the world to think we're still the richest country in the world and we don't have any hungry population.
I also think it's to "bribe" Pakistan so they would comply with the regulations for pullout of the troops. Nice, when on one hand they say the leader is corrupt and then give him money to maybe give to the Taliban as a bribe to take their fighting somewhere else.
I can't wait to hear how many millions/billions they want to send there.
Now THAT is something we can ALL agree on... - Why are we sending aid money to ANYbody?
[ In Reply To ..]We can't take care of ourselves. We need to quit trying to save the world with money - money that we don't have!
Amen! (nm) - Zville MT
[ In Reply To ..]*
Finally something people on both sides agree on! - Trigger Happy
[ In Reply To ..]We need to keep our money in our country. As for taking care of the unemployed in our country, why can't we use some of the unspent stimulus money to fund an extension of unemployment?
