#1 MOAB. Lots and lots of MOABs.

#2 Nope. Just like in Iraq, let the locals get their craw filled with "rule by whim" for a while. See how much they appreciate being randomly murdered and brutalized by foreign fanatics, and having their wives and daughters raped and married (without dowry) in the name of Islam.

#3 Yup, raped without dowry is a dog act.

#4 So the Swat valley is a 'tourist haven'.

Who knew?

#5 I think you mean bride price, Anonymoose. Dowry is what the girl's parents pay the boy's family to take her off their hands.

#6 Leave it and the surrounding area open for being "taken over" by the zealots. When it looks like they have a good number all in that one place and are getting a bit big for their britches, 02:30 is a good time to drop a MOAB. Or if that is too indiscriminate, use the smaller precision-aimed 2000# JDAMs.

I wonder if Perv isn't allowing this to happen to make the emergency end-date more indefinite.

Don't Pakistan and the US have some kind of agreement where we can go after bad guys? Does that include bombing groups of them at Perv's request?

#7 agreement where we can...include bombing groups of them at Perv's request?

I'm not sure there is such an agreement, but if Perv Mushy asks nicely, I think we would/should oblige. ;-)
