The American aid and Japanese money is going to the very forces that they are trying to contain! American arms manufacturers are having a field day with taxpayers money. Why is Japan also carrying on with this ununderstandable policy of sending money to Afghanistan and Pakistan? The disturbed areas need to be choked of easy money and arms. I am sure the Taliban and all other enemies of NATO are shooting at them with the very arms that were given in aid to Pakistan army.
Wake up guys! Stop pouring more arms into the region! The behaviour of the NATO and friends makes one suspect that the war is being run my their arms industry.
If this is true all citizens of the world must raise their voices to stop them NOW!

What is Japan up to in Afghanistan and Pakistan?
Sir, Seeing reports that Japan is convening a meeting of donor nations to aid Pakistan in its fight against terrorism is disturbing. America has been giving Pakistan economic and military aid to contain Soviet designs in Afghanistan. The only people with influence in Pakistan are in the Army. So, all aid is funneled through it.
As a result the Pakistan Army and its officers have literally looted the American taxpayers and made merry at their cost. The Soviets were defeated by the terrain and the doughty tribes of Afghanistan rather than by American aid. The only thing that these tribes have in common is Islam. They hate each other with the same fervor that they hate America now.
Taliban was foisted by Pakistan and encouraged to be fundamentalist. It is Pakistan’s own Frankenstein. Aid pouring into the area is mainly misappropriated by the army, which pretends to be fighting the Taliban. Whatever aid is left is passed on directly to the Taliban itself.
So whatever countries like Japan and America are spending to help Pakistan fight Islamic terror is in fact fuelling it. Wake up Japan! Why are you helping to make the situation in Pakistan and Afghanistan worse? If Japan really cares to help the normal people of these countries, it should wait till the arms and ammunitions these people have are exhausted. The turmoil in the area needs to be settled by the local people themselves before you can help them.
I hope the citizens of Japan will voice their opposition to aid being sent to Pakistan and Afghanistan !
Raise your voices people, lets stop our governments from wasting our money!
