" This is untrue since September 11th.Pakistan supported the Afghan regime that harboured al Qaeda; significant parts of the Pakistan military establishment still support al Qaeda and its ilk.

" This is untrue historically (i.e. over most of the last 50 years), and it's not true now. I don't know where you came up with it.

" This is true, but so what? The fact is that the WTC attack was caused by folks largely based in Saudi Arabia, not Iraq. Why don't you explain why it is that our relations with Saudi Arabia are cosy but not with Iraq.
