McMaster visits Pakistan
National Security Advisor HR McMaster took an unannounced trip to Pakistan this week according to AFP;
At his previous stop in neighbouring Afghanistan he suggested Washington may take a stronger line with Islamabad, for years seen as an unreliable US ally.
A statement by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s office said McMaster had “assured the Prime Minister that the new administration was committed to strengthening bilateral relations and working with Pakistan, to achieve peace and stability in Afghanistan and in the wider South Asian region.”

“As all of us have hoped for many, many years, we have hoped that Pakistani leaders will understand that it is in their interest to go after these groups less selectively than they have in the past and the best way to pursue their interest in Afghanistan and elsewhere is through diplomacy, not through the use of proxies that engage in violence,” McMaster said in an interview with Afghanistan’s Tolo News Sunday.
McMaster’s trip is overshadowed by Vice President Pence’s trip to South Korea and the demilitarized zone, but since there’s shooting war going on in Afghanistan and Pakistan, it’s still pretty important.

I wonder if the gist of his message was “Clean up your shit, or else you’re next…”
Does anyone else get the feeling that Trump is engaged in a 10-dimensional chess game – and is making all the right moves?
Isn’t that the difference between managing a corporation and merely looking good in a suit?
Could be.
GEN Mac looking sharp in civilian threads.
Real men tend to do that.
Joe “Shotgun” Biden couldn’t get his phone calls answered at the Kremlin. John “Jungle Stroll w/ Cameraman” Kerry had the respect of no one. WideLoad was taken seriously by only herself and her immediate subordinates. My, have things have changed. Suddenly. And for the better.
Between the Bush and Obama administrations, the ISI specifically and Pakistani government in general have been laughing their balls off at us when they haven’t been stabbing us in the back.
They don’t even have control of Waziristan, or they hide Bin Laden out in their equivalent of West Fucking Point.
Time to get their shit straight.
Is this one of those times when things just feel right, finally?
In addition, Daniel Bernath was sentenced to 365 days in jail in Virginia for charges committed against the Shipleys.
The Cock-knocker apparently is out on bail while appealing. He played all his cards and still got the max sentence.
I don’t see him weaseling out of doing time. He also is facing charges in Missouri of a criminal nature.
Word has it as he was being escorted out a catheter bag somehow fell out of his back pocket.
A last bit of theatrics on his part to get some pity.
Having had a 1/2 hour “one on one” conversation with Gen McMaster, a couple of years ago, I knew when he was called on that we would get our money’s worth out of him.
He’s just going to help set up another pipeline. That’s all the Donald is doing,is setting up situations he can profit off of when he gets impeached in a few years. The MOAB was dropped in an empty valley, it was all for show, to scare countries into playing ball or else. It’s a money grab as always
You do realize that President Trump did not order this strike, his Generals did. Do you know what Google is Sam?
Cripes. Another ma-roon appears. Thankfully, they have no staying power, with 1.5 exceptions. In case you’re wondering, Joe is the .5–and you know who 1.0 is.
Go back to reddit, fucktard.
The way I heard it, ex-IS2, Trump has a stake in a diamond exploration company and that 21,ooo pounder saved a lot of digging time and money.
If Sam removed his tin foil hat, maybe he could get a job at Trump’s diamond mine, it’s a money grab as always!
ex-IS2? blame the Army.
It’s all good, been called worse. 🙂
