Americans did know that any money given to the Pakis would be used against India. The same happened with the earthquake aid. Many countries including the Americans refused to give cash aid and unaccounted aid to the pakis. If the US wanted it, they could have given the terrorism money with a differently stuctured fashion with built-in accountability. The US deliberately gave cash- a total of $12B in the past five years, knowing fully well that the pakis would use that money to buy f-16s, swedish and Italian radars and other anti-India weapons. The Americans are now using the media to feign innocence on the matter of pakis using the aid to arm against Inida.

Exactly! Do anybody think that US is innocent ignoramus in the way their money is being used by Pakstan. In fact, the US and UK alone are responsible for the Pakistan's military capabilities. They fund it in the name of aid. UK is now suffering from Jihadis from among its own Pakistani immigrants, whom they recruited generously once to make Pakistan stronger. The US will also get the taste of its own medicine from Pakistan very soon.
