Wired News:

"CRAWFORD, Texas (Reuters) - President Bush agreed on Friday to sell F-16 fighter jets to Pakistan in a major policy shift rewarding a key ally in the war on terrorism and angering neighboring India.

Bush, on vacation at his Crawford, Texas, ranch, called Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and explained his decision to move forward on the sale, which has been blocked for 15 years to punish Pakistan for its nuclear weapons program."
