Perhaps some writers/readers on this good PDF site might want to check out the latest issue of THE ECONOMIST, Magazine, for dates of February 5-11, 2011. EGYPT RISES UP is on the cover with a Cairo demostrators photo on cover.
If you will go to the ASIA Section of the magazine, paper copy of the magazine see page 55. There you will find the following objectively written article of the current issue of the robbers vs. Raymond Allen.
Article is: BANYAN - Loss and riss management
sub-heading over a photo is: A new setback in the accident -prone alliance between Pakistan and America
For those who don't care to look up the article here are the first, a middle, and the last two paragraphs of this article:
Let me be clear that I do not endorse some of the above articles opinions and views, but am opened minded enough not to fear posting public articles which I partially agree with, and which I likewise partially disagree with.
As an aside, if you will do a search on the Internet vesion of THE ECONOMIST MAGAZINE using my name, which I don't mind giving out, GEORGE SINGLETON, Colonel, USAF, Retired, you will find a positive article about US helping Pakistan at the time of the last great flood in the NW part of Pakistan wherein the US provided a great deal of help using our overseas in place in Aghanistan and Iraq armed forces, tents, and related equipment, particularly clean water processing equipment. The US has then, and again currently, now been doing the same and operates several free medical clinics manned by our military doctors and nurses to help any and all the people of the latest flooding there.
My mention of water processing equipment is especially critical to health and well being of flood ravaged parts of Pakistan, down country, where cholera is already a problem which the Government of Pakistan in and of itself seems unable to handle on a solo basis.
I wouldn't as a rational American citizen ever accuse our President, our Secretary of State, nor our US Ambassador to Pakistan of lying about anything under discussion in this PDF Thread. You can harbor for your own personal reasons bitterness and not trust anybody you choose not to trust, but I certainly disagree with you...but the above citation is part of the formal factual point of view of America as just laid out by me from anothers posting herein of Article 31. Article 31 is the specific Article that applies to the Davis scenario, via our US Department of State, to the Government of Pakistan and to the Pakistani Foreign Office within the GOP.
Your very bold assertions are your business, but have no basis in fact regarding the citation of what International Law says as regards the Davis scenario.

For those who don't care to look up the article here are the first, a middle, and the last two paragraphs of this article:
FIRST PARAGRAPH: Conspiracies are popular in Pakistan, especially those involving America. When an American, Raymond Davis, was arrested for murder after the shooting two people on January 27th in traffic in the city of Lahore, many Pakistanis at once suspected the worse. The more that has leaded out about the case, the more their suspicions have seemed justified, and the more serious the damage to a "strategic partnership" vital to both countries. It will be mended - it always si, somehow - but not quicky, and not by Mr. Davis's early release.
MIDDLE OF ARTICLE RANDOM PARAGRAPH: The belief that America is callous about Pakistani lives and hostile towards Islam is the result of five decades of resentment. Pakistan has felt let down by America's failure to back it in its wars against INdia, and abandoned when, after helping Pakistan fule the anti-Soviet resistance in Afghanistan in the 1980s, America turned its attention elsewhere. America's recent courtship of Kindai and the favours it has bestowed on it have renewed Pakistanis' sense of betrayal. Teligious parties depicted the fist Gulf war and the invasion of Iraq as attacks on Islam. Pakistani Pushtuns see the war in Afghanistan as being waged against ethnic, as well as religious, brothers.
LAST TWO PARAGRAPHS: With strategic partners like these...It also helps bankroll an army stretched by flood-relief work, continused vigilance on the eastern border with INdia and fighting with Islamist extremists in the tribal areas in the north-west. Some 1.2M people remain displaced by that conflict. An insurgency simmers in Balcohistan. Acrosss the country, religious and sectarian violence claims lives daily.
Yet America needs Pakistan as much. It continues to press he army to campaign in Northern Waziristan, one of the tribal areas, against militans using it as a base for operations in Afghanistan. And the worst fear haunting the West in Afghanistan is that the war will end not just in defeat in that benighted land of 30M people, but also in the radicalisation of Pakistan, with 190M and a nuclear arsenal said to be apporaching 100 warheads. Much as they dislike it, America and Pakistan are stuck with each other.
Let me be clear that I do not endorse some of the above articles opinions and views, but am opened minded enough not to fear posting public articles which I partially agree with, and which I likewise partially disagree with.
