#5 "As for our relationship with Pakistain, it continues to be an important cooperative relationship that is also very complicated," Carney said.

Carney was reported to say to those close to him that he didn't know why he had to mouth those stupid lines for Obama.

#6 Looks like neither Pakistan nor the USA is in a reconciliatory mood just yet ...

To wit,

* PAKISTANI DEFENCE FORUM > US [Top Commander] REFUSES TO APOLOGIZE FOR FOR PAKISTAN AIR STRIKE THAT KILLED 24 SOLDIERS.

JCS Chair General Martin Dempsey.

* SAME > PAKISTAN [has]DECIDED NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN BONN CONFERENCE, as chaired by the Afghans.

* SAME > KARZAI URGES PAKISTAN TO RECONSIDER BONN BOYCOTT.

* SAME > [Polling Positions survey] MOST AMERICANS [55%] SEE PAKISTAN AS AN ENEMY, as per PP Poll taken one day after deadly NATO air strike.

Approximately 26.0% are neutral while 7.0% see Pakland as a friend of the US.

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > PAKISTAN ARMY OFFICERS CANCEL US VISITS [ + UK] - US OFFICERS NOT WELCOME IN PAKISTAN.

* SAME > LASH BACK: JD ["Jawatuud Dawa" Group] VOWS TO TURN PAKISTAN INTO TALIBAN STATE, + recruit + train Pak youths to wage Jihad agz the US + India, + apostate pro-Zionist, Crusader Pakistani Govt. iff it fails to punish or kick the US out of Pakistan because of the NATO air strike agz Pak troops.

versus

* NEWS KERALA > AFGHANISTAN TO APPEAL TO WEST NOT TO ABANDON IT LIKE THE SOVIETS IN 1980's.

POst-2014, the Afghan Govt-State believes it will need a minima of US$10.0Bilyuhn a year from foreign donors [Average = US$15.0Bilyuhn now].

Lest we fergit, AFGHANISTAN + EVEN PAKISTAN [AFPAK] = AMERICA'S "POTUS TEDDY ROOSEVELT" MOMENT, ee IFF THE US CAN'T DEVELOP SAME INTO MODERN PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRATIC STATES, NO ONE CAN.

[WILL SMITH = "WILD WILD WEST" MOVIE here].

FYI the OIC, Pak BFF China, Russia, + Iran are throwing their support behind Pakistan in this incident.

E.g. IIRC DAILY TIMES.PK > US FANNING TERRORISM, FLOUTING INTERNATIONAL LAWS: CHINA.
