Well, we know what the rest of 'civilization' has chosen, because we know know who's been stuck with the International Defense Welfare bill. Of course when it comes time for donations to other 'worthy' causes they seem to fail to calculate that into the 'amount already contributed' column.

#4 I'd especially like to see Indian troops help out now. Given the festivities in Wazoo, Swat, the FATA, and Helmand, Indian troops would be busy right next to ours.

#5 The logistics and basing agreements with Pakistan explicitly exclude India.

The State Department even issued a demarche against New Delhi over its opening of consulates in a number of Afghan provinces.

Pakistan still has many friends...
