AfPak: Pakistan Bailout

Once again, US tax money is devoted to Afpak plan. Same politicians, who were fighting over some millions for the art projects and job shifts to China and India, readily passed the bill of contributing $1.5 billion for Pakistan’s imaginary welfare. Obviously, US can't support each and every Pakistani for ever, ideally US should provide them jobs, and if that's the policy I would be much more happy on this plan. Anything that can keep Pakistanis far from terrorism and hatred feelings towards Indians particularly Hindus and Jews is good for whole world. My question is here- how much welfare has been done till now in Pakistan using American dollars- nukes, missiles, missiles defense and numerous militant organizations. Thanks to the ‘so called developed’ countries, South East Asia has become a nuke battle ground, ready to explode anytime. It is easy to sign up numerous defense deal and get the same money back in your economy, after debting it to charities. But, it is very hard to divert the direction- push it into targetted economy. Among the newly (in comparison to US)independent and diverse countries such as Pakistan, Bangladesh, India etc., political corruption and British strategy of ‘rule and divide’ is the norm. If US is contributing $1.5 billion, probably only development work of worth $1 million will be done and rest will feed middle men. How these middle men will handle the money? They will add it to their accounts in UBS, buy palaces in European and American big cities, move their family members and will give tithe to their mosques or religious organizations(The way Parvez Musharaf is spending his reward these days to stay outside of Pakistan). So probably all will get some part of it – US and EU, terrorist groups and Pakistani politicians. Pakistan chose its own density- to beg and feed itself. This lack of self esteem reflects when the government signed up deal with Taliban in Swat Valley.

On the other hand, India who got freedom at the same time and regardless of all the diversity of religions and races (if Max Muller was right) has achieved a lot for uplifting the weeks and poors (though have not distributed homes using others lifelong savings). The international religious hypocrisy and neighboring countries's ill will always created and still creates trouble in country’s growth, but people of India are continuously struggling in controlling the population and raising literacy percentages without licking the shoes of other countries' politicians. Indian government literally stopped hiring people of upper and middle castes, pushing them to be‘Educated generation of Indian vagrants’. And this Indian generation is helping the entire world to be technically advanced. You name the countries and you will get Indian people- Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, EU, Canada and many more. I guess rest of the world is trying to expand through wars, religions and businesses; Indian civilization is spreading through people. People who believes in Vasudhev kutumbkam (Whole world is family) and the only thing they want is right to live in harmony and peace with other humans, plants and animals.
