Hardening US stance
2016-06-01
[DAWN] ’INTERESTING’ times are upon Pak-US ties again. A US drone strike killed Mullah Mansour in Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
; the proposed US F-16 sale to Pakistain formally expired. The B.O. regime failed to convince politicians on Capitol Hill to allow use of US public funds to complete the transaction and Pakistain refused to pay for them in toto; and the US Congress is moving to put further Haqqani network-related conditionalities on assistance to Pakistain.

Obvious commonality here: the US stance on Pakistain is hardening again. What’s up?
