Piss off Pakistan badly enough, and you lose the only seaport through which passes 90% of all supplies heading to our troops in Afghanistan.

You close that port, you better have almost all of the troops out first, or a Plan B for an air bridge that would put the Berlin Airlift to shame.

Or just pay the Chinese to supply us.

I'd hate to be a PBO when comes time to drawdown (pull-out).

Stay safe.
