Back in March Moscow's Permanent Mission at the UN submitted to the UN Security Council an unprecedentedly detailed report on Al-Qaeda's terrorist infrastructure in Afghanistan, but the US government opted not to act. To find out why - and to discover the astonishing degree of information contained in that report - buy the latest special issue of Jane's Intelligence Digest online for just $36. Jane's Intelligence Digest's analysis of this Russian report, leaked from the highest levels of the UN, uncovers the following revelations: The breathtaking extent of intelligence data tabled by the Russians The degree of Pakistani military and security involvement in Afghanistan The extent of the Taliban's involvement in drug trafficking The key reasons why the US Administration didn't seize the initiative and act upon the intelligence given. As the US-led coalition embarks on the war against terrorism, Jane's Intelligence Digest is at the forefront of the geopolitical issues behind the military action. As well as studying the implications of the leaked Russian report, the latest issue of Jane's Intelligence Digest also contains unique and insightful analysis on the following: The problems associated with closing down the funding for Al-Qaeda With Western leaders now discussing the concept of a Palestinian state, the chances for brokering an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal in the current climate The effects of the growing international coalition against terrorism for the nations of the Commonwealth of Independent States Beyond the need for increased funding and emphasis on human intelligence on the ground, the war on terrorism's requirement for a solid, permanent political commitment as a requisite for success.

Mine: The rest is just a lot of self-promotion, requiring the reader to pay $36 for the details.
Apparently for the same reasons that Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Hezbollah are not acted upon right now
Which do you believe is the best strategy:
1. To identify and unite your enemies, then try and defeat them all at once?
2. To isolate your enemies and defeat them one-by-one, in detail?
Just wondering...
Because the Klinton/Gorp team stood to make a lot of money to look the other way. They were stupid enough to think that they would be important in the new totalitarian regime.
Probably the best comment made since 9/11. Kudos!
If they would just all gather at the Al-Hazir oasis for the First International Terrorist Exposition & Fat Camel Show, we could have our way with them.
Unfortunately, the event has been cancelled...
Good one :)
Would you rather attack one Nazi division...or two?
In this case, as we isolate and utterly defeat the "first division", enthusiasm for harboring the "second division" is likely to have waned significantly.
By the time we get to deal with the "third division", they are likely to hand them over, tied and bound, in cages.
Note that, before we have fired a shot (that we know of), the Taliban is reportedly self-destructing.
Are we anxious for action? Or results?
No action - no results
