War against terror: US fails to see Pak sacrifices

US Congressman Ted Poe says Pakistan cannot be trusted

A US Congressman has opposed the decision of the House of Representatives to increase American aid to Pakistan from $700 million to $900 million alleging that Pakistan continues to support terror groups that target US troops in Afghanistan, according to Hindustan Times. “Pakistan cannot be trusted. It has played us now for a total of $33 billion of our money since 2001,” the newspaper quoted Republican Congressman Ted Poe, chairperson of the Subcommittee on Terrorism, Non-Proliferation and Trade of the House Foreign Affairs Committee op-ed in US News.
