Allegedly it goes to anti-terrorism, but like all governments a tax is given a "Working title" but not necessarily used for such. If they were that keen to do something in the Mountain border regions where the terrorists are supposed to be, why aren't their troops regularly deployed into these regions ? Why will they not allow the Americans access ? And why so much resistance from the Pakistani Government ? It appears that their allegiance lies more with the insurgents than their "Western Friends". Unless we're talking vast sums of money then they can't get enough.
