The Trump administration on Friday announced the United States will deny Pakistan military aid amounting to $255 million as it expects Islamabad to take decisive action “against terrorists and militants on its soil”.
...
The amount, $255 million, is left over from $1.1 billion aid earmarked for Pakistan in 2016, and which included non-military aid as well. It was cleared for handing over in August, just days before it would lapsed as unspent money.

The Trump administration was clear from the start it wouldn’t countenance continuity in ties and aid without real changes. “We have been paying Pakistan billions and billions of dollars at the same time they are housing the very terrorists that we are fighting,” President Donald Trump had said unveiling his new South Asia strategy in August. “But that will have to change, and that will change immediately.”
Giving Pakistan money for their military is like handing over cash to Islamic terrorist who want to kill you. USA and other non-Islamic countries should all divest and withdraw from all Islamic ruled countries who harbor and support Islamic terrorist.

Great...more please...
If he isn't giving it to Pakistan, can I have it please? I don't have a military, but I could sure use the money!
waiting for incoming "nuanced" reasoning why this is a bad decision because we don't understand Pakistan - Indian relationship or some other garbage about supporting moderates in Pakistans government.
Good, but dont stop there. No foreign government should get one penny taken from an american worker.
