Another ally getting it done! Hoo-Rah! I do have a question though, if everybody suspects that OBL is hiding near the Afghan-Paki border, why don't we go there and flush him out?
Mark's Remarks
According to my military sources, the problem is in maintaining the viability of President Musharaf. The area UBL is in, is controlled by feudal warlords, who though extremist, have some intense following. Also, the terrain is very rough and provides many areas to hide and set up ambush. Wht we have to do will be covert, unless Musharaf can get the warlords to turn over UBL or work out a deal. I cannot say we are in there, but I know we are snooping around. The doors are closing....unless we pull a Clinton and let the murderous scum get away again......(wait til after the election, right Mr. Clinton and Mr. Berger? Or wait til another 3,000 are killed in attacks? These two should be in chains in gitmo with the terrorists)
