LOL the Americans are pretending as if non-NATO ally is something extraordinary. It means zilch.

If the Americans had the balls they would exterminate their embassy from Pakistan. This move means absolutely nothing.

hmmn, they are removing their own lip service! kewl. Till this day never knew what the heck was this so called non NATO ally.

It also seeks certification from the Congress that Pakistan has taken steps to demonstrate its commitment to prevent the Haqqani Network from using any Pakistani territory as a safe haven and that the Government of Pakistan actively coordinates with the Government of Afghanistan to restrict the movement of militants, such as the Haqqani Network, along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border.

I guess history will note that a bunch of guerrilla's called Haqqani Network grinded the might of the US military? Surely the senator could have thought this through.

LoL

at a time when Trump has had to make a request for cooperation
US will not do anything to antagonize Pakistan.

Should they still decide to introduce this bill and it floats;
this will mean the end of US dominance of trade.
China and Russia will take full advantage.
