We've already “invested” $20 billion of our tax dollars in Pakistan. And the return on our investment was Osama bin Laden being sheltered for five years by the Pakistani military and the main supply routes to 100,000 American soldiers being cut off.

Our next investment in Pakistan should be in the form of massive amounts of ordinance. Expedited shipping, please.
