Is the Right way the Wrong way?

In my classmate's blog "Mr. Obama, Mr. Zardari and Mr. Karzai; she gives a very interesting account of the terrorist problem that is facing Pakistan. This enormous amount of money that the U.S. is about to give Pakistan; (a broke government that has been said may not be able to fund military operations by the end of this month, unless the U.S. provides aid) leaves out the question of India. 
This is where I have to disagree with Miss Rehana's argument. She states that the current administration is compared to the Bush Administration because of their "parochial way of thinking." What narrow-minded views is the author trying to establish? What black and white views? The issue is simple: Pakistan has let terrorists get within 60 miles of of its capitol. Pakistan is one of the few countries in the World with nuclear capability. While I understand that there is conflict between India and Pakistan, I would pose the question: Can India pay its military? Yes. Are terrorists at the doorstep of New Delhi? No. The conflict with India and Pakistan is a problem, but the conflict that Pakistan has with keeping its own country secure is an even greater problem. The author makes the assumption that this money will be used to carry out terrorist missions in India. However Defense Secretary Gates has pledged to Congress that he would provide specific goals in judging whether or not this aid is being used as it should be by Pakistan. Security, development and governance are the three concerns of the U.S. Miss Rehana gives a very weak solution to her argument. Do not provide financial aid to Pakistan, and instead allow the UN or Non-Govermental Organizations to build schools in Pakistan. A noble effort yes, but I doubt UN workers or ANY non-governmental organization would want to go into a broke country with militants on one side and India on the other, in short: there would be chaos. The irony of the situation is that Pakistan will not even allow U.S. forces to train their military on their soil. Pakistani soldiers have to come to the U.S. to be trained in counter-insurgency techniques. Isn't that a little bit of parochial thinking as well? In the end, each of these countries are linked together, the actions that the U.S. does will have an effect on each country in this region, its impossible to control the outcome. What it comes down to is Pakistan's Nuclear capability and the U.S. not wanting that compromised. While I don't like the idea of the U.S. giving money to a corrupt Government, what alternative is there at this point? Chaos?
