U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton will announce on Thursday more aid to help those affected by the devastating floods in Pakistan, the State Department said.
Spokesman P.J. Crowley told reporters Wednesday that Clinton will announce the new assistance while attending meetings at the United Nations in New York. The United States has provided more than 90 million dollars in aid since the flooding hit earlier this month.
The disaster has claimed more than 1,600 lives. The United Nations estimates that 6-8 million people are in desperate need of help.

Thank ALLAH for saving Islamabad. The plane was meant for Kahuta nuclear plant. It was a suicide mission from intelligence unfriendly to Pakistan, then blaming Bharat, thus starting a nuclear clash between two Countries.
This is a repeat operation, first being Mumbai and now Islamabad. The unfriendly forces failed both times to start war, thanks to ALLAH the MERCIFUL.
So why the hand out?…………Think.
Assalamu=Elakum

You should thank ALLAH Alone and no other. While U R thanking others have a review of this site:

I feel like vomiting, not because of design of unfriendly forces to Pakistan, but of Muslim who for few pennies allow this to happen, even though they are warned in Qur’an and Hadith of such forces.
But then ALLAH has HIS own PLAN and destruction of Islamabad and Murder of Millions in Islamabad was not one of them.
Then thank ALLAH for HIS MERCY much and have a very happy Eid-ul-Fitr, indeed.
Assalamu-Elekum
