Buy Pakistani?
The Pentagon is about to waive "buy American" provisions of U.S. law and
allow Pakistan to provide the goatskin leather used in the distinctive U.S.
aviator bomber jackets.

Do you know any economics theory? If not (and I suspect this is the
case, or you wouldn't have posted this), I suggest you look up
"comparative advantage" to see why it might well be in the interests
of both the USA and Pakistan to do this.
