“So far, these steps have been reversible, superficial, and steps that we have actually seen them take in the past, in periods of high pressure.”
Yes. Whenever the U.S. complains that the Islamic Republic of Pakistan is not moving against jihad terrorists, despite getting billions of U.S. taxpayer money to do so, the Pakistani government makes some reversible, superficial moves that it thinks will be sufficient to fool the kuffar. And they were sufficient to fool George W. Bush and Barack H. Obama (or maybe he just didn’t care). But Donald J. Trump is cut from a different cloth.
“Pakistan moves against terrorists ‘superficial, reversible’: U.S,” by Varghese K. George, The Hindu, February 22, 2018:
The Donald Trump administration is not satisfied with the measures taken by Pakistan in recent months to crack down on terrorist groups, a senior U.S official has said. “So far, these steps have been reversible, superficial, and steps that we have actually seen them take in the past, in periods of high pressure,” the official told The Hindu in an exclusive conversation on background….
The official said the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) plenary in Paris was yet to take a decision on action against Islamabad on the question of terrorism financing. “My understanding is that the FATF discussions are ongoing, FATF is aimed at ensuring that the countries are implementing the statutes and the laws that are necessary to counter terrorist financing, money laundering and those sort of things…” the official said, refusing the elaborate more, since the meetings were still on.
‘Zero tolerance towards terrorism’The Trump administration has zero tolerance towards terrorism, and terrorist sanctuaries inside Pakistan, said the official. “President Trump has been clear that we need to see decisive action, not superficial action and half measures.. but decisive action against terrorist militants in Pakistan,” said the official….

I am waiting for the most dangerous jihadi nation, Turkey, to be kicked out of NATO. This, however, is another step in the right direction. I like Trump: he wants to be successful and simply does what it takes.

way back in the 1980s—–they have been barbaric animals AND THE DARLINGS OF THEIR
FELLOW PAKISTANIS. ——and counting

Soros-ibrahim gets money for another posting not related to Nigeria. Because he is not from Nigeria. So do not feed the troll!

Pakistan will be willingly helped by China as they are both totally anti Indian. Saudi and Gulf money keep coming into Pakistan too.

They don’t hate the billions of dollars the USA poured into Pakistan in the past for very little impact against terrorism, probably because it was pocketed by the corrupt elite. The Pakistani Government is most likely corrupt at all levels.

Yes–we *should* cut off all monies to Pakistan.
By the way, Ibrahim itace muhammed has claimed that he has secret video proving that the American president is raping little girls. Still waiting for that…

It is great to have someone in the White House that is not a fool or a member of the cult as was Hussein. Doubt it? How about the call to prayer being the most beautiful sound or his comments about the Crusaders for which he is completely ignorant or simply implying a lie. I haven’t forgotten his rant about Christians with their Bibles and guns either. I hope that President Trump removes all funding for the entire region except where necessary and Pakistan is certainly not necessary; in fact I would remove the Embassy and Consular personnel from Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad. I would seal the border with Afghanistan and any one coming across the border into Afghanistan, I would have tell the Afghans to destroy them or the US is out of Afghanistan; maybe even drop a few bombs at different times but daily. All funding for the UN would come to a complete halt and PLO would have to be on bending knees to the Saudis or maybe Erdogan.
I have my fingers crossed that the British and Canadians will come to their senses and rid themselves of the not so funny jokes that plague both nations. I love Britain and I pray for them each night.
P.S. Stellasaidso, I also love France as well as Germany.

Afghanistan is an Islamic crap hole. Of course it is not part of the United States.
Ibrahim itace muhammed just can’t wait until women are being stoned again in the streets there.

Graven, I swear to God that in my almost four years working and living in Nigeria that I have never witnessed any Nigerian who speaks or writes like this fool. Nigerians have many faults but stupidity is not one of them; not even in the muslim community.
