no we cut off all finacial aid to pakistan months ago and also the "stealth" tail rotor is useless to China... and since all the adavanced elctronic goodies were destroyed by the Navy Seals when the blew up the main fuselage of the helicopter with C-4 there is nothing of military value china could get from the crash site...
I have good friends with top secret clearances, and they inform me that Israelis are the greatest security threat, higher than Chinese or Russian. Do we stop giving money to them also?

There seems to be a bit more to the story. They gave samples of the (presumably radar-dampening) skin to the Chinese. This may have taken a lot of effort for us to research and develop.

That's hilarious. I think your friends are a threat to security, if that's true.

Even if all you say is factual, that does not change the fact that the Pakistan government was acting like a mercenary w-h-o-r-e in their intent.
Agree. These people are completely untrustworthy. Plus, we seem to be gullible as we continue to bribe them even more.
The Chinese have been allied with Afghanistan since before Afghanistan was a country (1942), since before there was a USA (1781), and before the Treaty of Vienna (1656).
You didn't know that? Then shame on you.
I guess it would be useless to point out that Kissinger's duplicity during the Pakistani-Indian War (1971) almost led to WW III.
That was the closest the world has ever come. Kissinger was trying to pit the Chinese against the Indians and then playing them off against the Soviets at the same time.
It's a good thing Kissinger failed, otherwise the USS Enterprise and the USS Tripoli leading Task Force 74 would be sitting at the bottom of the Indian Ocean.

...and the Brits were there before that. And the Moguls before that. Your point? We are talking about Pakistan and its trustworthiness, not Afghanistan. Having your usual cow, eh?
...although, I agree that Kissinger screwed up things in the Bangladesh war, wanted India not to attack Pakistan, India did anyway and split it into two.
Also, who on earth (in 1971) had the power / will to sink the 7th fleet that was sent into the Indian Ocean?
