A supporter of Imran Khan, the head of political party Tehrik-e-Insaaf or Justice for Movement, carries a placard during a protest against the US Kerry-Lugar Bill in Lahore on October 9, 2009. Pakistan's parliament resumed debate on a massive US aid package after rifts opened up between the military and the government over strings attached to the funding. In an unusual public statement late October 7, top military commanders including the army chief said they had 'serious concerns' about the bill, which hinges some aid on hard-up Pakistan's efforts to battle Islamist extremism. US Congress last week voted to triple aid to Pakistan to 7.5 billion dollars over the next five years, part of US President Barack Obama's plan to battle militancy through development and fostering democratic institutions.
