Why aid to Pakistan?

Since 9/11, according to congressional reports, U.S. taxpayers have given Pakistan at least eighteen billion dollars, much of it to the military,” (which backs militant groups that cross into India and commit terrorist acts.) “Last year alone, the U.S. gave Pakistan $1.5 billion dollars. Isn’t it about time we asked ourselves whether this is a good idea?” says the New Yorker.
