Well, it looks like Pakistan is going to let us base a multi-national force there. I am sure that when it came down to it, they had little choice. I guess the question becomes what exactly do we do there. No doubt that there will be ground troops used but the main thing lacking will be intelligence.

This could certainly be the beginning of WW3 but we can no longer sit idly by.

I keep thinking about Bin Laden and his suicide bombers. He is so willing to recruit others to strap a bomb to their chest and blow themselves up or fly a plane into a building. But it appears that he is not willing to do this himself. What a hypocrite.
