The confusion about Jacobabad's Shahbaz AFB..is it us or US ...?



The floods in Pakistan has no doubt washed away millions of houses,shops,roads and farms...but the most interesting thing this flood has done is that it once again brought the question of Jacobabad's Shahbaz airforce base being used by the americans or being an american airforce base....the two things seems very same right now since pakistan is in great desperation and the americans are being so gracious in helping Pakistan in whatever way it can...giving money ,essentials and a helping hand in the rescue and relief work....
A senior Govenment official was reported by the media informing the senate sub committee that Shahbaz  is under US control....which was very forcefully denied by the PAF spokesperson.
Sounds to me like the little girl whose caught with a hand is in a candy jar...looking up and saying "no i was not taking a candy from the jar..."
Now suppose this base is de-classified and allowed to put up a sign as a US AFB....how bad it is for the PAF and Pakistan....
