Fence it off and let them go at it. We'll clean out the winners.

I suppose the UN will be working overtime to broker a ceasefire. Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi will also call for a national day of prayer for peace between the two factions.

That was a little funny, but I didn't mean it the way you took it.

And don't ever call me a Liberal again.

"They told the BBC that only seven people had died - five of them Uzbeks and two students."

Botany students no doubt . . . searching for rare mountain orchids.

On a serious note, thanks for the post! This is very interesting news, particularly coming from the BBC.

1) Don't assume you know how I "took it".
2) Don't assume you were being called a liberal.

Hey, it was just a joke building on the irony you pointed out.

Hmmm. I wonder if any of our assets had anything to do with stirring this up?

Obviously your power to recognize sarcasm is non-existent.

Mushie has been supporting the Taliban of late in exchange for the Taliban cutting support for al-Qaeda.

If we want to win in Warizistan short of nuking it what we need to do is what we are doing in Iraq. Divide and conquor.

Seperate the native fighters (the Taliban) from al-Qaeda. That is exactly what we are trying to do in Iraq.

"Up to 30 people have been killed in fighting between al-Qaeda militants and local pro-Taleban tribesmen"

Awesome!!! We just eliminated 30 terrorists and didn't have to lift a finger
