#3 I was curious about the tone of the article, and went to the sourcing web site. Wow, skim through the articles and comments. I get a sense that the site is railing against the rest of the universe. India, Jooos, western warlords (US, europe and NATO as far as I can figure) - and virtually everyone else in the world are all arrayed against poor Pakistan. As to why, they have no clue.

#4 If that is the greatest of this guy's complaints, he must be a very content person.

#5 I may need to add a "Serving Colonial Masters" sub-heading to my own writing. But more of a how-to than a criticism.

#6 Are you getting the idea that we're not too thrilled with the way you're handling Wazoo?

#7 bigjim-ky is right. These countries are used to shitting on the west and being treated with kid gloves. The same treatment in kind is unacceptable.

#8 Next time, pick him up in a golf cart, with a Marine sentry in battle fatigues behind him. Drive him to Base Ops, slam him up against the wall, and frisk him. Tell him, in way of explanation, that we have to be careful, since so many terrorists all around the world appear to be Pakistanis. Maybe he'll get the message.

#9 Think this just might have something to do with the recent CIA presentation of evidence that the ISI is supporting/funding/training the Taliban. Can't act like the head of state in your own country, can't control your government institutions, why on earth should we treat you like the head of state??? Douche.

#10 You're an errand boy, sent by grocery clerks, to collect a bill
