Looks like Pakistan is going to collapse under its own weight.

Probably not all that bad a thing, unless the extremists get ahold of the nukes, in which case we're going to need to act quickly and severely.

men crowded atop buses, waving
the white flag of the Taliban

Note to troops:

White flag = keep shooting.

Thankfully, there are a few other types of dissenters there also.

A veiled Pakistani woman attends a peace rally in Peshawar, October 2, 2001. The protesters condemned terrorism and called upon the United States to avoid any war against Afghanistan, which they asserted is not the solution for ending terrorism. (Aziz Haidari/Reuters)

Dear Miles,

We are sooner or later going to have to invade Pakistan and take out their nuke plant.

They are probably going to be p*ssed, but that's OK.

We can pull out clippings of these rallies after we double-cross and invade their worthless country.

Pakis out.

This, and the fact that other Mid East states are beginning to get cold feet, makes it look like the coalition is in danger of doing the same.

Exactly what I was thinking. India may be forced to use nucs, if they fear these dirt bag terrorist supporters get hold of them. From there, it is WWIII. This truly is a struggle for national survival, against the dark evil forces of the world.

"Why are you here? What do you want?" hissed one youngster - who wore a White Sox baseball cap - before being shooed away by the armed guards.

Kids damning America while wearing a White Sox cap. Grown men who hate what America stands for, yet hanging out in strip clubs the night before the most viscious planned assault on our country ever (which they most likely knew about, or were actually involved in) ...and we thought American kids could be stupid.

That assertion is false, according to the Bush administration, which says the hijackers were radical Muslims who left behind instructions that referred to Islamic belief, and which holds bin Laden responsible for the plot.

I see, its just Bush's opinion, not fact. Is this an extension of the "one man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter" policy from Reuter-Rooter?

I like the way you think. We need more of this.

Split the Trans-Asian Axis right up the middle. Sequence - Pakistan>Iran>Nepal>Iraq>Myanmar>Syria>Laos>DPRK>Tajikstan> Siberia>Armenia>PRC>Russia> Done deal - it's Miller Time!

"BBBBBBUBBUUBBUT, we can't do THAAATTT"

Oh yes "WE" (USA+India+UK+Japan+Israel+Taiwan+Italy+Australia+Austria+ Thailand+Switzerland+Singapore+Ireland) can!

Maybe I need to cut back on my sugar intake, but I feel like we're on the brink of a major disaster.

These clerics wield too much power over the people.

Only a blinding light, and fervent heat is gonna stop em..

"In the history of the world," he told them, "no one has won a fight against Muslims."

That'll be news to General Schwarzkopf, the Israelis, Don John of Austria, and others.

We should be concerned about people who have yet to master the concept of indoor plumbing?

I think you are right, but we have no choice. We must go to war over this modern day Pearl Harbor. There is no other choice.
