The president should authorize the State Dept. to ship emergency supplies to Pakistan for the flood of refugees fleeing the army/Taliban fight. Tons of food, tents, water, generators, port-o-sans etc. should be provided. Helping these people is wining their trust in defeating the Taliban. If the effort is real and gains are made, Obama should use proclamation power to make Pakistan textiles free of duty here. Their request for drones should be met with drone teams sent in as adjuncts to the Pakistan military, so they can't be used against India. We should end all government corn ethanol subsides, buying sugar ethanol on the market and replace ethanol with food/feed corn subsidies. The worldwide food shortage along with the Afghan/Pakistan theater can be helped greatly when food and feed corn sent to increase livestock holdings wins tribal loyalties.
