      The subtext behind Pakistan doing it, and doing it now, is to try and bait Trump away from getting involved with Pakistan’s ally: Iran.

      If Trump does anything to Iran, Pakistan is going to make a big fuss about doubling-back on their nomination.

        Its just buttering him up for the next terrorism attack on India that Pakistan is planning to conduct. Iran is a Shia majority country and no ally of Pakistan which is a sunni majority country. Minority sects like Hindus, Shia, Ahmadiyas and ethnic minorities like Hazaras are treated the absolute worst in Pakistan. I would be surprised if they ever ally with Iran.
