Bribe

We've really all known this all along. But you can only describe this a grease money:

The Los Angeles Times leads with the Pentagon trying to inject accountability into the way it gives over $1 billion a year in military aid to Pakistan. The U.S. currently reimburses Pakistan automatically, with little or no oversight, for GWOT-related expenses.

...

Pakistan currently sends the U.S. embassy invoices for vague expenses like "support … provided to U.S. military operations during January through March related to the global war on terrorism" and receives cash—payments that made up three fourths of all U.S. military aid over the past six years.

I'm sure Musharraf has a fat bank account somewhere outside Pakistan. I'm equally sure that Musharraf uses grease money to keep the army on his side.

It's the U.S. participation in this kind of corruption that makes winning the GWOT impossible to win. You can't kill all the terrorist because we're creating them faster than we make bullets by bribing supporting corrupt dictators who could care less about their people.
