Totally a flame thread. The USA does not now, nor has it ever, wanted t o "occupy" Pakistan. The ONLY thing the USA is asking Pakistan to do is to expel the non-Pakistani fighting forces from its territory. In this world of hundreds of nations, such a request is only not possible to fulfill by nations that do not exercise sovereignty over their "supposed" territory. Most of such nations are labelled as "failed states". Pakistan is a hairs breadth away from being a failed state unless it can show that it controls FATA. Alternatively, Pakistan is a double-dealing state that could control such forces as the Haqqani network, BUT chooses not to because it believes that such terrorist groups are useful in its confrontation with India.
