Do you think America really fighting against terrorism?? If yes then why are they aiding Pakistan which inturn supporting Terrorism?? Its U.S.A. which supplied weapons to terrorists(Taliban) to fight against Russia and now extending their military cooperation to Pak. They are fighting with terrorism in one form and at the same time they are aiding terrorism in another form.

No, we helped the freedom fighters fight the Russians, the Taliban DIDN'T EVEN EXIST at that point, neither did Al Quieda.

yes, you can post links of sources to back statements, in fact, people are encouraged to do so. How is it you are defining "created"?

At the time we helped Afghanistan (not Pakistan) and their resistance fighters when they were trying to keep the Soviet Union from taking over the country. Osama bin Laden was one of these Afghani resistance fighters. At the time the Russians were doing things like dropping bombs that looked like toys and blowing up little children. The better question is how these people can turn on the US and try to destroy the US and kill Americans after we helped them in their fight against the USSR? Perhaps it is because terrorists have no loyalty, they have only hatred.

Exactly. America lent her support, and now this is the thanks we get? Get real. From most Americans view, even if they won't admit it because they're worried about appearing "non-progressive," that entire culture seems to despise what we stand for. And if they don't, they surely keep it a secret. This is like the frog that helped the scorpion across the creek. Is it all for Allah? WTF?

//At the time we helped Afghanistan (not Pakistan)// no i`m talking about present, USA`s military aid to Pakistan. Every one know that Pakistan is the new epicenter for terrorism and their ISI helping terrorists in all possible ways. How do you back America`s this move??
