Pakistan is more of a problem than a solution in the GWOT. By coddling them and reqarding them for their patently bad faith actions and superficial "crackdowns," we are being made to look like panderers.

The only question is whether it was authorized by Musharraf, and if so, why?

Google "Quetta and the Quesadillas"

I'll be meeting with my "partners" later this week hopefully and hope to have more to report on Pakistan.

Musharraf would be dead right now if he wasn't helping these guys.

He had that one scare where they blew up the bridge right after he crossed it.. Ever since Pakistan has been worthless in rounding up Al-Qaeda.

He saw the "light" after that close call I reckon.

This is what the CIA thinks? That means that Bin Laden is really in Iran, or for that matter, anywhere else or dead. The CIA has at best, zero credibility on this and everything else they've opined on for decades.

All of islam is the problem in the war on terror. No muslim can be trusted to have any allegiance to any non-muslim. Their first and strongest allegiance is to islam and muslims regadless of the constant flow of "ROP", "patriotic muslim-American", "ally in the war on terror" bullsh*t that spews from their mouths and mosques.

Whether one chooses to keep one's head in the sand and ignor the facts, or accept the situation; it does not change the reality that we are in a holy war, and not of our on volition.

Who cares where Bin Laden is anyway. Dick Durban is a much larger threat to the nation than Bin Laden. Bin Laden and Al Qaeda cannot defeat the United States. But Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi, Dick Durban, Chuck Schumer, Hillary Clinton, Chuck Hagel and the rest of the left wing vermin can.

Bodansky has been saying this all along - he is living as part of a normal family in Pakistan. no big security apparatus around him that would attract attention.

I agree. Any individual, nation or government that is Islamic at its core cannot be trusted. You can only trust in three things:

1) Individuals will put self interest above all else,

2) Individuals will next act to promote family and tribe, and

3) Individuals, families and tribes will always act to the spread of Islam.

ISI invented and birthed the entire "Taliban".

They are known to coordinate and cooperate.

Known going in.

Welcome to "Realpolitik".
