US Plans Massive Embassy in Pakistan

The US is planning a massive diplomatic presence in Pakistan similar to its current embassy in Iraq. In a recent funding request, the Obama administration asked Congress for $736 million to build a new US embassy as well permanent housing for US officials in Islamabad. The request falls just below the $740 million cost of the US embassy in Baghdad.

736 million? there's not a person here who could use that money, is there?

i suppose we are going to be there a while.

as the old song asked...how many deaths will it take for us to see that too many people have died?"

and how much money will it take?
