When it comes to Pakistan, the US establishment has one large 'guilty conscience' It was the Amercian establishment that was directly respsonsible for creating this 'monsterous environment'in Pakistan that today threatens to destory that State. Figuratively speaking US intervention in Pakistan is as ugly as the one it has done in Iraq . Iraq suffered only in the last few years , however in Pakistan on a low level intensity it has contined for nearly four decades ! Ironically that would in some warped manner justify the persistant support that the US offers Pakistan even when that state goes against the principles that the Americans vocally stand for . But in finality is this good for Pakistan?
