Billions in U.S. Aid Never Reached Pakistan Army - International News | News of the World | Middle East News | Europe News - FOXNews.com: "ISLAMABAD, Pakistan�—� The United States has long suspected that much of the billions of dollars it has sent Pakistan to battle militants has been diverted to the domestic economy and other causes, such as fighting India.

Now the scope and longevity of the misuse is becoming clear: Between 2002 and 2008, while Al Qaeda regrouped, only $500 million of the $6.6 billion in American aid actually made it to the Pakistani military, two army generals tell The Associated Press."
