Obama vs Pakistan

The New York Times: Reports that the Obama Administration from President Obama down to the Director of the CIA have their doubts about the idea being pushed by Pakistan for a deal between Afghanistan and Insurgent Commanders. How can Obama look his and they are HIS soldiers in the face if he is sending them out to be killed if he allows Pakistan to undercut the NATO mission in Afghanistan. What is the point of losing brave Armed Forces Personnel from the US and UK if Kabul will pull the rug from under NATO forces in Afghanistan. In essence if the Obama is to win this war he has to find the right words to say that the 2011 withdraw date is off the table, otherwise Kabul will move on with the idea that the US is out and it needs to save its own skin after 2011.
