Isn't Pakistan the first and only (yet) Middle Eastern nation, primarily muslim, who has nuclear weapon technology?
A bunch of crazy terrorists hiding in the only middle eastern country with nukes would be a good enough reason for bribery, I suppose.
At least, that's my knee jerk reaction to it at first. I know there's a lot more to it all than that, however.

I have no idea, we should be arming India, the heck with Pakistan. I think its a case of keeping your enemies closer so we at least know what's going inside of Pakistan, IMHO!

Qui bono? Who profits? That's the question you should be asking. Who profits from wars? Who profits when people are kept as slaves? Who profits when these secrets are kept from you? Is it you? If not, then why do you allow it?

Years ago we were pouring money into Saddam Hussein's regime and the Taliban, methinks Pakistan will be the new patsy in a couple of years.

The international banking cartels have taken root in all the major countries. None of the people have stood up. Then again these terrorist acts could be exactly that people standing up.

There is always focus on the US giving money in the form of foreign aid to Israel (mostly in the form of loans that are repaid) and less discussed is that billions are also given to Pakistan, the Palestinians, Egypt, Jordan, and elsewhere, essentially to buy Western interest loyalty.
