Has the U.S. Finally Run Out of Patience With Pakistan?

If you look at the record, America has been concerned about not alienating Pakistan for the last 10 years or more. But the Afghans are clear about this, and the Americans know that one of the reasons the Taliban insurgency has been resilient is that they have sanctuaries across the border in Pakistan, in Balochistan. I think the Americans were thinking that Pakistan would probably deliver the Taliban, because they had influence over them. Pakistan claims they have control, but then they say, "well, we don't have full control, we can bring them to the table but we can't make them do things unless you promise something concrete."
