My question for POTUS is: What is a greater source of recruitment for Al Qaeda, housing captured Al Qaeda at Club GITMO of vaporizing them in N Waziristan?
I was always critical of the Bush Admin for not doing more Predator attacks in Pakistan, and applaud Obama for upping the pace. The $7.5 BILLION in aid over 5 years may have made the corrupt Paki's more amenable to letting us bomb the NW Territories, but that is the price of doing business over there. The MSM will never call Obama over this as they would Bush, so Benazir's hubby Mr. 10% will continue to feed his Swiss bank accounts at taxpayer expense.
What is most interesting about this bombing is we do extra-judicial killings of bad guys AND their families based on tips and wire intercepts. If we catch an actual bad guy trying to blow up one of our planes over American soil, we Mirandize him, and then plea bargain in order to gain his co-operation. Is it just me or does anyone else see an inherent conflict between those two policies?
1. Where is that peace prize?

I do wonder why the anti-war left and the hyperventilating MSM are sitting back and not screaming about this though.
...not really.I’ve come to expect it from this rather large bunch of hypocrties.
He’s dead; that’s a shame /sarcasm/
Regarding the 72 virgins, a friend of mine straightened me out on this issue a while back. He explained that there are no 72 virgins. There is only one virgin, she is 72 years old and looks just like Janet Reno and that’s why she’s still a virgin.
Their "policy," if they have one, is utterly incoherent as Holder's appearance before Congress illustrates. It's based on nothing more than mindless soundbites the Bushaters uttered during his administration.
How do you justify an extrajudicial killing if there is no war? Shrug.
How can you justify Mirandizing a noncitizen and then trying him with a military commission? Can't a conviction be reversed under familiar principles of Constitutional law since you given him Constitutional rights? Shrug.
What is your principle to determine if a foreign terrorist is tried by commission or by a court? Shrug.
These idiots thought nothing through before installing their mindless, foolish policies and none of it makes logical sense.
