No, Mr. Masood is a wise man. We do have to make clear that we are NOT there to occupy the country, that we have business to take care of. Some of it has to do with getting humanitarian aid to the people so they don't starve to death this winter, and the rest is the capture and removal of all Al-Quaida personnel.
Common sense tells you that this should have been made abundently clear before we land in their country. Our guys are on the ground, I don't want people shooting at them from both sides. A meeting with a couple of the top commanders would have this operation moving like silk.
I think they're less concerned about us occupying their country and more concerned about UN "nation building" types settling in.
