Enemy Within Part Two = Pakistan
The Times: Reports on the view that the Police in Lahore, Pakistan had a hidden hand in helping the terrorists attack the Cricket Team from Sri Lanka. In essence the failure of the Pakistan State has corrupted the civic structure from the Police to the Armed Forces. The Obama Administration has to keep an eagle eye on Pakistan, if Pakistan falls to the terrorists then that is a game changer in the region, India might attack Pakistan before its attacked, the terrorists might attack India and the Western troops in Afghanistan. Thus lets hope the CIA and MI6 have on the ground presence in Pakistan to watch the nuclear missiles of Pakistan. At the end of the day President Obama might have to take them out with or without of the approval of Pakistan.
Talking to Moderate Taliban/Terrorists - Obama ?
BBC News: Reports on an Interview given by President Obama to the Liberal New York Times. The President stated that he is open to talks with moderate Taliban/Terrorists fighters in Afghanistan. The President also stated that the West is not winning in Afghanistan. At the least the President is thinking outside the box, using the Iraqi model of talking to the enemy who are willing to talk, also the President sees that Afghanistan is not good for the West. This shows that Obama does not want to be another LBJ and he does not want Afghanistan to turn in to his Vietnam. Obama as with Richard Nixon; Nixon in Vietnam; wants out of Afghanistan, wise move, but it took years for Nixon to get out of Vietnam, there was more harsh fighting in Vietnam, thus Afghanistan and Pakistan will get a lot worse before it gets better, this is a long and hard War. To miss quote LBJ, Afghanistan is a bitch of a War.
