#1 I don't know about that. The last time a Paki red line was crossed, it was very productive.
It turns out this was a special camp used to train al Qaeda's elite Black Guard, the praetorian guard designated to protect Osama bin Laden. The cover story for the strike was that Pakistani Army units, including helicopters equipped with night vision equipment, hit the camp. But the truth is Task Force 145 struck with air and ground forces, and inflicted dozens of casualties on al Qaeda recruits and Imam Asad, a senior Chechen al Qaeda commander and associate of recently slain Shamil Basayev. Asad was the camp commander and at the time the commander of al Qaeda in Pakistan, a position of honor and power within al Qaeda due to the importance of the country to the organization.

#4 The attack on D.C. was specifically an attack on the National Command Authority that was apparently sponsored by a declared nuclear power.

No red lines to see here.
