#3 I think I see where he's going: since Pakistan is an army with a "state" rather than a state with an army, it can't be a failed state;) Damn my head hurts whenever I decipher Holbrooke. That must be his strategery with the Paks, too.

#5 Actually, most failed states are in better shape than Pakistan. Even Nork has only ONE functioning government, not three or four acting against one another.

#6 IIRC, the BAMMER = USA is planning to give PAKIS US$1.50BILYUUUHN in annual assistnce over five years, or US$7.50B tote.

IOW, FOR THAT KIND OF $$$, IN A TIME OF MSM-VERIFIED OFFICIAL "NATIONAL RECESSION/
DEPRESSION", IT BETTER NOT BE A "FAILED STATE" lest POTUS Bammer wants to be a de facto one-termer.
