So how would you make the decision? Is the alliance with Musharraf worth it to find Osama and get intelligence about radicals in the region?

Wouldn't you say the proof is in the pudding. Its been nearly 5 years since 9/11. We have never gotten Osama. Roughly once a year, the Pakistanis capture one of Osama's key guys........someone usually near the top. Doesn't it feel a little calculated to you? The Pakistanis do just enough to keep up their end of the bargain without seriously upsetting the al Qa'ida apple cart. Is this worth keeping up a relationship with a tyrant with all the money we are giving Pakistan?
