I believe SWAT is one of the Tribal Territories that generally support the Talibunnies. Just invite the Talibunnies in and make them all at home with that famous Swat hospitality. What’s the problem, the Talib are just happy Muslim visitors from the neighborhood!

It should point out the total hypocrisy of the socalled secularists, and the allies of the US in the Army and the ISI.
A secular party, the ANP, won elections here, and instead of being supported by America’s alleged allies, they are left to their own wits in the face of an onslaught by the jihadis.
Tribal leaders, political leaders, women school principals have all been targeted and slaughtered.
The Pakistani Army doesn’t even protect it’s own citizens who are antiJihadi.
I’d rather hear the sound of taliban dismemberment.
I’m sure Obambi will offer for peace talks without any preconditioning with the Talibans.
Mountain valleys are perect places for containing the airburst of large thermonuclear devices! Please let all the Taliban and AlQueda morons congregate in one place.
I'm not a military man, but I don't think it's a good sign when your side is hiding in their barracks, and the other side is moving unopposed through the cities.
