Top intelligence official claims: Obama admin. funded terror network 'for the next ten years'
[WashingtonTimes]
Hat tip to Besoeker. Our anonymous intelligence official claims the Haqqani Network, basically a tribal mafia, would not have traded their captive for four of the ideological jihadis of the Quetta Shura, aka the Afghan Taliban, plus a mere one of their own if a considerable sum of money -- $5 million is mentioned -- were not paid. The non-anonymous Michael Rubin, formerly on Defense Secretary Rumsfeld's staff, agrees. More, of course, at the link.
