It was absolutely this. US funds the pakistan army and a high level meeting happened where they threatened to pull out funds if they didnt dispose off Khan. We have a saying that most countries have an army but in Pakistan the army has a country. Gaddafi was killed and his sons were murdered in front of him because he threatened petro dollar. before that he was given red carpet in france and even camped in sarcozy lawn. now Russia and China threaten the petro dollar and I am worried what the US is going to do.

  What does the commented being in India have to do with what he said? It is absolutely true Khan didn’t want to cancel the Russia trip when it happened the day of the strike.

  Direct funding of Pakistani military forces in recent years is indeed unsubstantiated, but occurred as recently as 2018. We still provide some significant funding to Pakistan for humanitarian and development (i.e. civilian) efforts. This information is widely available online. So GP is wrong to be so confident and absolute about their claim that we still fund the Pakistani army, but we do indeed give money to their government, and the Pakistani government is not independent of its army. It’s a messy situation. Just trying to provide a bit of a more nuanced view before this heavy-handed comment you’re replying to is dismissed outright.
