I thought it was bad enough when the CIA helped create the ISI.

But now they are making it too easy for highly corrupt foreign services, to abuse what we give them.

Training of Pakistani intelligence and military personnel in the use of electronic surveillance and analysis equipment potentially could take place on U.S. soil, according to an Army planning document that U.S. Trade & Aid Monitor has located.
Original, daily reporting of little-known U.S. government-funded foreign aid projects and overseas business subsidies.

Not saying they may not essentially need the training. But it could be done in their country as opposed to ours.
I am just against any chance of ISI getting their hands on our technology, and in turn it getting to hostile foreign services.

Not seeing what your worried about from that article. If the government has decided it would be benenficial to train them then why does it matter if they are trained in their country or here?

I just saw on the fox ticker an hour ago that Pakistan gave the boot to 95 of our hundred something anti-terror trainers. Why? Don't they like the free training or are they getting a little worried that these guys are using Taliban style tactics on them at night?

The Pakistanis could have just came out and said hey they are like the Iraqi police, ANA or Pakistani ISI.

They act like our allies then attack us at night, wtf!!!

Wasn't Bin Laden trained by the CIA in the USA under the alias Tim Osman?

Jeez, history seems to repeat itself faster every time.

Oh well, all part of the plan, move along, nothing to see here.

"It is the function of the CIA to keep the world unstable, and to propagandise and teach the American people to hate, so we will let the Establishment spend any amount of money on arms."-- John Stockwell, former CIA official and author

For the same reasons Sky watcher mentioned, they refused other training, only to cherry pick what they wanted. They could easily turn around and hand that technological training over to terrorists, who would use it against us.

That is why.

I already said the training could just as well be done thousands of miles in their home land, no reason to spend the excess fuel and time.

Perhaps there are tools or things that are used in training that are not easily moved to their country. Also if I was going to be trained I would try to cherry pick the best too. And it doesn't matter where the training takes place since if their goal is to turn it over to terrorists it will happen anyways.

Still not seeing your dilema with this.

Yes that is the goal of the government. They have a secret program to train pakistani's who will in turn go and train terrorists.

My point exactly.

Personally I would be totally against it, as I obvious have voiced.

Yet do not discount I did say in my first post, if it is necessary it makes sense, but I don't see it that way.

U.S. Sending Training Agents to Afghanistan to Stem Infiltration of Local Forces
KABUL, Afghanistan — Concerned over the growing pattern of Afghan soldiers and police officers attacking their coalition counterparts, the American military is sending 80 counterintelligence agents to Afghanistan to help stem the threat of Taliban infiltration in the Afghan National Security Forces, military officials said Friday.

These intelligence specialists will enhance the vetting of recruits, review profiles of soldiers who are being trained and generally tighten up the procedures to identify individuals who might be vulnerable to extremists’ appeals, officials said.
