#1 LOL! Great comments, AP, heh, heh. A friendly "joint planning & ops" meeting, no doubt. How fitting. Too bad ALL of ISI wasn't present. Perv would've turned cartwheels!

#2 Pakistani intelligence agents were killed during an August 1998 U.S. missile attack

So! It was not a complete loss.

#3 So! It was not a complete loss.

No, just like all Clinton anti-terror initiatives though, it was inadequate

#4 Asked he believed the Pakistanis warned Bin Laden of the attack, Berger replied, "There has been speculation to that effect, - that he was tipped off. I tend to doubt it, for the simple reason is that we also killed, apparently, a number of Pakistani ISI intelligence officials who were at the camps at the same time. So one would think that had there been a tip, they would have gotten their own people out."

Some times sacrifices have to be made, Sammy baby.

#5 Considering the exceptionally lackluster performance of Pakistani intelligence in apprehending bin Laden coupled with the ISI's likely complicity in India's Parliament terror attack, I'd have to say that any agents who won cruise (missile) tickets that day, most likely were not infiltrating and instead collaborating with al Qaeda. At least, that's a chance I'm willing to take.

Second only to Saudi Arabia, Pakistan has done more to breed up the monster of International terrorism than any other country. This primary insult to the global community is almost completely outweighed by Pakistan's willing proliferation of nuclear technology throughout the entire Middle East. They have much to answer for.
