PAKISTAN, Islamabad : Pakistani Taliban leader Hakimullah Mehsud, who was believed killed in January, vowed attacks on the United States in a new video apparently made last month, the SITE monitoring group said on Monday. Mehsud threatened to retaliate against the United States within a month for the killing of Islamist militant leaders, according to a transcript of the video.

Barack claimed he would catch Osama Bin Laden. I can’t even recall the last time Barack mentioned HIM.
Maybe he should catch this guy too.
Hell, no.
This is why it is so stupid for any law enforcement spokesman or elected official to go on camera and say the Times Square Car Bomb is not connected to International terrorism. Whatever happened to the line, “nothing is being ruled out”? If they discover there is a connection lot of people are going to have egg on their faces.
Maybe the Obama administration was providing him cover by claiming he was dead.
I take it you would describe the carnage this might have caused as ‘amateurish’ as well....
None of us should feel safe, because we aren’t safe.
Of course, that's what the evil leftist media would like you to believe......that it was a Tea Partier who did it.
You don't believe that, do you?
Unlike, say, the shoe bomber and the underwear bomber?
It’s tragic what 51% of the voters will swallow hook, line, and sinker.
I would think the Taliban would design a larger bomb. This sounds like an individual made it.
Hell, BUSH said he would capture Osama bin Laden. I thought the monster was buried under the rubble in Tora Bora.
Any analysis yet on whether this is actually Mehsud, and not just some guy *claiming* to be Mehsud? There would be a hell of a lot of reasons for these skeezers to pretend that Mehsud hadn’t been blown to bits.
I agree that OBL has long left this mortal coil.
However Obama attacked Bush on OBL “not being caught” and he pledged that HE would do so.
Still waiting, Bammy.
Already (I'll bet) Barry has told his aides, "Mehsud acted stupidly," to which Rahm chimed in, "Yeah, wasting a perfectly good mourning crisis with that public statement!"

These ideas were better thought out than you are giving them credit for. Lucky for us they didn't work.
Well, if the guy is dead and buried, it’s going to be nigh impossible to find him.
Obama should apologize to Bush.
A 2010 sign-up mouthing MSM talking points... wonders never cease.
