#1 24/7 B52 runs will put a big ass dent in this problem. We need to tell the Pakistanis to FOAD and get after it. If they say anything say "try to stop us and we will destroy you and your government."

#3 The moment they declare themselves seperate from Pakistan, they are fair game.

#4 The moment they declare themselves seperate from Pakistan, they are fair game.

They've always considered themselves separate from Pakistan - that's what the whole problem is about. The Pakistani government can't control the area. It's about time to teach them what being on the receiving end of a high-tech, mechanized, combined-forces army is like. Screw Predators and Global Hawk - run B-1s and B-52s down through the area, hitting any gathering larger than three people. Destroy all the roads, all the buildings, any other infrastructure that can be found, and blow up all the caves. Leave them NOTHING during the "long, cold, Afghan winter". Play 'whack-a-mole' with JDAMS and napalm, and see how they like it. Anyone from AP, Rooters, KUNA, the Pak press, and a half-dozen other useful idiots are also fair game.

We screwed around like this in Vietnam far too long. We don't need to do it today in the NWFP. Crush them, drag their carcassas into a pile and burn them, and beat the crap out of anyone that objects, especially the pakis or the UN. We still have a terrorist problem because we haven't gone mongol on the terrorists, and they laugh at us. I doubt anyone would be laughing after the NWFP was fumigated. Trembling in their boots, I hope, but definitely not laughing.

#5 Can't argue with that Old Patriot. I think the pak's should give them indepence, since they can't do anything about the area anyway. Why on earth would they want this place anyway.
Even if they dont', they should be bombed, a lot.

#6 It is way, way past time for major strikes on Talibanistan.

#7 Several trillions spent to build, deploy, and upgrade a nuclear arsenal that sits and gathers dust and spider-webs. Here's an opportunity to reintroduce to our enemies (Japan, 1945) to the mushroom cloud. Has a way of humbling them.

It is either them or us. Unfortunately, the Appeasementcrats are willing to sacrifice an American city before we go Roman on the Islamo-Nazis.

#8 It is either them or us. Unfortunately, the Appeasementcrats are willing to sacrifice an American city before we go Roman on the Islamo-Nazis.

And even after we've lost a city or three, the Appeasers will still want to surrender. Change is going to have to start at home. I din't think I need to elaborate.
