      You are right about "a weak leader is very bad and dangerous news for the US."

      Do not worry, soon he will be replaced by strong Democrat and he will be out from Withe House and no danger to USA...

      "The government says the bloodletting shows the success of its decision to use local tribesmen to root out foreign militants linked to al-Qaida..."

      It looks to me that a Pakistan government is doing good and fight Taliban, Al-Queada and we should WELCOME it's action...

        "that God only knows what is happening in the mountains along the Afghan border."

        But we hope God knows what is happening in the White House?

          The foreigners are getting whacked.

          The foreigners are mostly Al Q.

          Seems like a good deal to me.

              Yes Mr. "knothead" you are right about " the Internet is censored and monitored there so I think you are the one who needs to be careful." but you aren't right to denied my FREEDOM OF SPEACH and my opinion.

              My friend, please do not attack others when they do not share same vision with you... B.T.W., please say hello (from me, of cause) to your wife and God bless her for trying to create peaceful LIFE for herself and her family!
