I don't like the Al Qaida and i Dont like the TAliban. But what I fail to understand is IF pakistan did support Osama then they would have helped him escape. I mean they helped US andd now they are in trouble. Al Qaida threatened pakistan. And pakistanis arent stupid that they wouldnt know helicopters in the sky and foreigners landing in their country you know what i mean right?
I would support America if their intentions were right. I am sorry but their intentions arent right. I dont wanna bring Iraq in but they tried to "help" iraq and ended up destroying them.
Pakistan's government is corrupt and USA cannot help them. I think power lies within the people of the nation and history has proved that! they need to stand up. And I pray to all the pakistanis in pakistan that please stand up for your own country. I don't trust the american government neither do i trust pakistan's government
Even the CIA and Leon Panetta have not pointed their fingers at Pakistan - the fact is either they are involved or incompetent. That is why Leon Panetta completely excluded Pakistan from the whole operations. The Pakistan government was 100% clueless of what was going on. They had no opportunity to tip Osama at all, and no legitimate institution would help him in open firing.
Every nation is selfish and has its priorities
1) Securing itself and its people
2) Ensuring natural resource markets
3) Ensuring resale markets
4) Consolidating power
That is why you cannot simply say intentions are right or wrong, but you have to take the context of the situation. I fail to see why USA is now wrong in its stance on Pakistan.
WWI & II, USA had actually no business fighting. It was profiteering from war. Yet in the full context it was a just cause.
After that Cuba, Vietnam, Afghanistan were all BS wars on account of the Red scare with Russia.
The Gulf war was fought because we wanted to secure oil reserves, but the cause was just as a sovereign nation was attacked.
The Iraq occupation is the biggest piece of BS in history I have ever heard of.
However, today the Navy Seal Op and further ops in Pakistan have just cause given relevance of the situation.
I am able to call BS to my countries policies when they are wrong and stand by it when its right. Have you tried weighing all options and seeing when the causes are reasonably justifiable? America maybe selfish (like every nation) , but try not to write off all their selfish actions as unjust. Depending on the situation, their actions maybe what the world needs. Take it in context.
