I don't know what you are drinking but America funded Pakistan and have been supporting it. How do you think they got f16 for free

Drinking ignorance. Thank you for the additional info.
A lot has changed over the years. While the soviets were supplying India and propping up their puppet state in Afghanistan the US used Pakistan as a proxy.

But by the time the US were hunting Bin Laden a lot had changed and support has been trailing off.

Now most recently Trump has been growing the US pro-Israeli - and basically being broad-stroke anti-every-kind-of-muslim - policy and actions in the gulf and has put the now-meagre levels of ongoing US aid to Pakistan completely on hold.
