Pakistan is not our ally

Pakistan’s Army said Monday that a US military aid cut worth some $800 million won’t affect its ability to conduct combat operations. Analysts call the cuts the strongest indicator yet of the deteriorating nature of the relationship between the two countries and say it could cause the Pakistani military to retreat to a more hostile anti-US position.

Unless we give them billions in military aid, the Pakistani military will "retreat to a more hostile anti-U.S. position"?

Then they're not our ally in the first place.
