[...] It’s much bigger than, but also very much related to, what’s going on in Glasgow right now. I won’t waste your time here with commentary; we’ve written on this topic again and again and again and again. Everyone knew the “peace deal” Musharraf struck with the tribal elders in the border areas last year was a naked stab at appeasing the Taliban and would turn out to be a disaster. Everyone, that is, except him. [...]

Entelechy~ you are my hero. I quickly copied your post to save for future reference. Although I had already gotten the link to work I’m sure next time I wanted to do it the procedure would still have eluded me.

Now if you could instruct me on the finer points of Windows new operating system I might hold off on using my new laptop as a traffic cone.

Even my African Grey parrot, who could host his own talk show, was at a loss for words as he witnessed my frustation. Everytime I looked in his direction he would only say, “Hey, I’m JUST the BIRD!”

Thanks again! ;>D Maureen

Anyone remember the effectiveness of B-52 carpet-bombing?

I’m too young to have seen B-52 carpet bombing and Allah willing I’ll see it now ;)

I’m really sorry it took me that many tries to get the hyperlink thang figured out. I’m done now. Must cling to small victories…

Been wrestling all day w/ new computer that’s high on Windows Vista, trying to understand Dell’s new Tehran-based tech help, “Okay now click Start, then Control Panel, now look for Network Sharing and click on the Death-to-America icon…”

Maybe Mr. Cheney suggested this move to Musharraf…

Sidenote: Can you imagine a VP Edwards reading Musharraf the riot act?

I can definitely see John E. going absolutely ~~MEDIEVAL~~ “300″ on Musharraf. If you harbor any doubts, just watch this (“YOU WANNA PIECE OF ME?”) clip of him in action:

href=”http://youtube.com/w/?v=2AE847UXu3Q&session=ts2bIUFlauxR6nnCzY2ZKBifG3FUlclbN51tCaVPSDfAjTdAhoVaSUnrOUkTCUq3xpUmX6rKDMKeeSgV4_CXfI278QjoDkryYai1xcG_lsxIu4hVor1sQs33v5MPPjwoO0pVslp8IU1DTL6cNv2p2KmDV-qbQia”>

Let’s cut John E. some slack. Poor basTURD probably won’t be around much longer. He’s gotta have two-pack-a-day-Lucky-Strike-lungs from all that hairspray. I’m just sayin…

I wish they’d just rename it Talibanistan, then we could just nuke it. Oooops, did I say nuke? I meant carpet bomb.

Sure hope I don’t get banned for suggesting I’d like to kill all the terrorists without any of *our* guys gettin’ hurt.

There are probally others of you that shared the same gut feeling I had after 9-11 and all this crap was happening between us and Musharaff. He was too much of a deal maker, lining his own greedy pockets, working both sides of the street and I never trusted the bast**d. I hope to heck he’s driven out of the country and whatever of the hundreds of the millions he’s socked away for himself are frozen and the bast**d dies broke. I am firmly ‘gut’ convinced that he has hidden binLaden for years. Probably under one of his own properties!

AP–I didn’t know the plan to oust him til your link. this has been a great place to stay ahead of the curve and you guys do a fantastic job. Bravo!

Could be a setup.

I am not sure of the history, but it seems to me that the muslims created Pakistan from taking part of India, and now the same thing is happening to them?

Jihadis: We declare this part of Pakistan to be Taliban/Al Qaedastan where we will be free to practice jihad and Islam
Americans: We declare war on Al Qaedastan
Pakistan: HA HA
Jihadis: Oh Shiite

AP, couldn't you just give us more posts about cats? Like this one? Catblogging is so much nicer than bad news from the Mid East.

By: MirCat

MirCat — Sun, 18 Mar 2007 20:49:32 +0000

I say we give Al Qaeda land too.

Jihadi 1: “Look at the beautiful land The Americans gave us.”

Jihadi 2: “Yes, the land is nice, but the flowers in the middle east are much more pretty than these that the infidels planted.”

Jihadi 1: “True, look at how ugly they are with their thick red bases and little black stems comming out of the tops.”

Jihadi 2:”Although I have to say that the sparklie tops are quite nice.”

So, can we attend the signing ceremony? If not, we should at least send a…present. So as not to be considered rude.

Pakistan seems to be one of two nexus of global islamist terrorism. It is only a matter of time before those tribal areas get cleaned up. If Pakistan doesn’t do it themselves, the world is going to tire of the games and someone else is going to do it. Global Salafist terrorists seem to be able to trace their training, recruiting, financing, and support organization right to Pakistan while Shiite groups can be generally traced to Iran.

The Pakis don’t have much time to get a grip on things.

Can’t wait until Al-Queda gets ahold of Pakistan’s nukes. I sure am glad we blessed their nuke program.
