#8  "Karzai the Pashto has repeatedly condemned the US for conducting air operations in Helmand District."

Karzai the Pashto's late brother was a major player in the illicit drug distribution network in the region, too.

#7  The Pakistan Daily reads like the New York Times. The Taliban in Afghanistan aren't going to stop causing trouble until we decide to do something about Pakistan--such as crossing the border to take care of scum. The Taliban don't honor sovereignty, why should we? I like the suggestion of crushing Pakistan and dividing it up between India and Afghanistan.

#6  Mr. Karzai can condemn all he wants, as that is all he can do.

#5  I listened to Howard Stern this morning. On air comedian, Artie Lange, reported that field troops treat Taliban as drug dealing scum. They destroy tens of thousands of lives each year.

Reminder: Karzai the Pashto has repeatedly condemned the US for conducting air operations in Helmand District.

#4  "Pakistan's General Headquarters in Rawalpindi are thrilled with the Taliban's sweeping military successes"

Nice to see which side they're really on.

#3  The drug economy is larger than Pakistan's legitimate economy and is "tax free". These people are not about to let that kind of cash slip from their fingers. The Taliban are more about maintaining the flow of cash, and therefore the source of power, than anything else.

Cash flows of billions of dollars are more addictive than the heroin itself.

#1  Belief in the ancient "Pashtoon Code" is ingrained into those savages. Those drug dealing swine believe they are a moral people. Frankly, I believe that Pashtos and Wahabis are equally responsible for 9-11
