The foiled plan to blow up two air cargo planes bears the imprint of Egyptian Saiful Adil, recently freed from Iran and reintegrated into al-Qaeda in Pakistan's North Waziristan tribal area. Adil believed in smaller attacks would damage American interests but which would not necessarily result in an overwhelming reaction, as happened after the September 11 attacks when Afghanistan was invaded and the Taliban driven out for harboring al-Qaeda… the ouster of the Taliban government and the death of thousands of dedicated Taliban and al-Qaeda fighters… more than 700 al-Qaeda members arrested in Pakistan and taken to the US detention facility at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba, and the ongoing US drone war that has killed scores of al-Qaeda members in the Afghanistan-Pakistan border areas.

Oh Boy believes that protecting our shores is his most important task, pull back the forces but leave the borders open so as to be humane.

These vermin aren’t going to stop trying. Eventually they will come up with ideas that will work, meanwhile Boy President refuses to send hit squads out to nullify the money men and planners on the dirty side. Just wouldn’t be a neighborly thing to do (too much like Bush).
