I don't think so. We want no part of that country either. If anything, we just sit a few carriers off the coast and launch airstrikes. Again, there are things that you don't know, and I can't tell you. Have a nice day.

How we got to this point in pakistan goes back to the cold war with russia.If we do this attack it would be a true "war on terror" and maybe key to killing osama.

I have flow over Pakistan, there is so much undeveloped land in this country.
Pakistan has hills and mountains good for mining uranium.
There are oil reserves as well, so it seems its ripe for the picking.

Not going to happen.
1) The US is now 9 TRILLION dollars in debt (3 trillion under Bush alone) and the dollar is sinking like a stone.
2) The US military, by its own assessments, is way over-committed. We are scraping the jails for more recruits, extending the tours in Iraq to the point of psychological stress, and having a hard time keeping material and training current. The Marines will go enthusiastically wherever they are ordered, of course, but saner minds will prevail on this one.
3) Our 'allies' are backing out of Iraq and Afghanistan, leaving us holding the bag and needing even more forces in those countries.
4) We have made enough enemies all around the world and have no need to make more.
5) The neocons in Washington are losing power as people see the disasters that their policies have brought to the Bush presidency.

Now, now, Jazminx. Please reread my post: it means Republican conservative policy makers in the White House. Why are you calling them 'cowardly liberal'? My guess is that they would be royally annoyed.

Perhaps you are confusing "neocons" with "conservatives"? Two very, very different things, but the terms can be confused! Let me know if you would like me to define the two.

what the strict definition is and what the contemporary usage is are two different things.
Don't condescend to me pal, all it does is make you look like a d*ck.

Yes lets bring every one home tell the radical Muslims we are sorry. I am sure they will take a heart felt apology from us and leave us alone. I am sure they were not serious about saying that any one not being a their type of Muslim will be killed. We need to pull every one back into our borders and sing kum-by-ah. They will leave us alone and the world will live happily ever after.

Really doesn't matter.....as long as politicians continue to hamstring our generals from doing what the generals KNOW to be the most efficient course of action....it would be nothing more than an open ended policing/ occupying action that will result in far too many casualties on all sides.
All the "political correctness" just prolongs conflicts while the politicians try to show thier people that "they" can pick up a turd by the clean end. There ain't no clean end. It is a dirty job that the military is trained for.
