It's not like...

...anybody really trusted them anyway, but the ISI... or rogue elements within it... have really crossed a line here.

-- WASHINGTON, July 31 (Reuters) -- U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded that members of Pakistan's spying service helped plan the suicide bombing of the Indian Embassy in Kabul this month, The New York Times reported on Thursday.

U.S. government officials told the newspaper that communications had been intercepted between Pakistani intelligence officers and militants who carried out the July 7 attack that killed 54 people.

The ISI already has a pretty unsavory reputation, but this takes things to a whole other level.

The newspaper said it was the clearest evidence to date that Pakistani intelligence officers were actively undermining U.S. efforts to combat militants in the region.

The unidentified U.S. officials also said new information showed that members of Pakistan's Directorate for Inter-Services Intelligence, or ISI, were increasingly providing militants with details about the U.S. campaign against them, allowing them to avoid missile strikes in Pakistan's tribal areas.

Your supposed friends are aiding and abetting the enemy... no wonder this part of the world is such a quagmire.
