As Americans we can draw only one conclusion from this.

The Pakistani Army does not have enough money to fight terrorism. We should send them billions of more dollars to help them help us.

This is turning into an episode of 24. Next, we’ll figure out he wasn’t acting alone in the Pakistani government ... it goes all the way to the top. And, the Russians are actually pulling the strings on the Pakistanis. And the Russians are acting at the behest of Obama.

My guess is that Charles Logan is involved somehow.

Hmmm. I guess we’ll soon hear from the State Run Media that this Pakistani major was also despondent due to the mortgage crisis.

Pakistan = Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) = formed the Taliban = transferred funds to execute 9-11 = shelters terrorists = plays both sides = exchanged Chinese nuke designs with the Iranians and Saudis = has fooled, and continues to fool America.

History repeats. Watch out.

Sounds like a WARCRIME to me.

Oh wait, only the US is guilty of war crimes. Anywhere else it is the “actions of one lone nut”.

Who can blame the guy. If I lost my house the first thing I would do is go to Pakistan. I think most of us would.

Just asking ... is Nepolitano a “One Off”?

She seems... a bit.. odd.

>>fooled, and continues to fool America.

Not to quibble, but self delusion may be the bigger folly by miles.

Another tidbit about Faisal’s Pakistani military connections, in addition his his father, a retired Army officer.

Pakistani investigators are also looking into a trip that Shahzad and the suspected Taliban liaison took from Islamabad to the town of Hasan Abdal in August, Pakistani law enforcement sources said. The pair stayed at the house of a friend of Shahzad’s father, Bahar ul-Haq, a retired vice air marshal in the air force.
