Bush-"US has no intention to strike inside Pakistan"

your easily pleased lol and we both know you wouldn't

Step up - you run and I'll campaign for you.

sorry too disappoint you ian,i would expect someone more intelligent than myself,to be the president of the most powerful,country in the world,maybe my standards are a lot higher than your's,you being a bush suppoorter.

You could run for some local office in your town - I could be your internet campaign manager.

Don't take this personal, but get hit by bus please. Fcuk Hitlery, and Obagman. America needs either Ron Paul, or one of the semi war candidates that aren't complete neocon douchebags, not a socialist.

And stop derailing my thread about a weak ass middle east terrorist supporter with distractions.

WAR ON TERROR???
Oh where, oh where have Taliban gone?
28 of 29 militant bases ID'd by U.S. intelligence 'dismantled' after information given to Pakistan

Information regarding the location of 29 Taliban bases, ID'd by U.S. intelligence and shared with Pakistan, has lost its targeting value for Islamabad's promised offensive against the militant group with the apparent evacuation of 28 of the training camps along the country's northern border with Afghanistan.

The U.S. presented Pakistan with a dossier meticulously detailing the bases' locations in the tribal areas of North Waziristan and South Waziristan, but, according to a report by Asia Times, the camps 'have simply fallen off the radar.' Neither the North Atlantic Treaty Organization-led coalition in Afghanistan nor Pakistan intelligence have detected any movement in the camps since early this month.
On-the-ground intelligence from both sides of the national border indicate all camps but one, operated by a hardline Islamist mullah, have been dismantled and all Taliban commanders, as well as leaders of Arab insurgent groups in the country, have disappeared.
The development comes as tribal leaders from Afghanistan and Pakistan are meeting in Kabul for a four-day "jirga," or peace conference and for discussions on how to best fight the Taliban. Tribal leaders from North Waziristan and South Waziristan refused to attend the summit because the Taliban was excluded from the talks.

The evacuation of the camps also coincides with the release of a videotape earlier this week featuring Adam Gadahn, the "American al-Qaida," threatening new attacks on U.S. cities. New York City authorities responded to the unspecified threat earlier today with checkpoints and radiation monitoring of vehicles entering Manhattan.


Pervez Musharraf

According to Asia Times, Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf, who has been invited to address the closing session of this weekend's peace summit, was expected to begin military strikes against the Taliban bases in his country after the jirga ends. Indeed, Pakistani helicopter gunships launched assaults today on al-Qaida and Taliban hideouts in North Waziristan. Three militants were reported killed, however, with the high-value targets now evacuated, the effectiveness of any military initiative is in question, particularly since summer is passing and winter's heavy snows makes military operations difficult or impossible.

According to Asia Times, the Taliban has redefined its command structure following the death in May of Taliban commander Mullah Dadullah in Afghanistan during a coalition raid. Dadullah enjoyed almost cult-like status and his death was a demoralizing blow to the group.

Much of the Taliban leadership left the field in June and was headquartered in Quetta, Pakistan, Asia Times reports. As WND reported, the Pakistan enclave has long served as a safe haven for the Taliban seeking respite from fighting coalition forces in Afghanistan, despite Musharraf's promises to crack down on them.

Musharraf, whose five-year term in office ends this fall, threatened earlier this week to declare emergency rule, but has since told Washington he will not. Many of his top commanders are sympathetic to the Taliban, a fact that the evacuation of the training camps following the transfer of U.S. intelligence may indicate.

WorldNetDaily: Oh where, oh where have Taliban gone?

Heck no. Our man might get voted out of power. We can't have that. And don't give me any more of that 'bastion of democracy' crap. Those have always been your words, not mine. :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :thumbdown:

Actually, the have been the governments, and everyone that supports the chess game we have been playing in the middle easts words.

you just love military dictators,don't you pino ! have you not thought,that if they hold democratic elections,you would marginilise the islamists,that was the thoughts of imran khan,a sporting legend in pakistan,now a politician.

Scoob, I only care about American interests. I'd also like to include those of Europe, but Europe's just AFU right now. In terms of geo-politics, I gave up my leftie idealism decades ago. I lived for years in foreign countries, and saw the nightmare of their worlds up close. No thanks. I'll stick with the good old UNITED STATES, each and every time. There's really no place like home. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

im sure the 150,000 troops in iraq,would love to be back home in the USA,well done MR PRESIDENT :thumbdown:

Actually, morale in the US military is high. It's weird.......the whole time I was in the Army, almost everybody I knew actually fought like hell to get assigned to wherever the action was. I knew guys who pulled strings, big time, to get deployed to Persian Gulf War I, for example. There I was, a silent chicken chit, in a crowd of war-mongers. That's what soldiers do -- fight. It's my belief that a lot of Americans really want to go someplace to blow up stuff and shoot people. :dunno:

We were highly disappointed to go to Iraq. I was sitting around in Kosovo during the first wave of the invasion with a colonel, and a couple captians, the colonel was pissed because he knew we would go there instead of Afghanistan, or other terrorist hotspot, something along the lines of "Great, there goes my war command, off to police another third world **** hole"
