"Do you really think the head of Pakistan could remove the terrorist factions from his country?"

CERTAINLY NOT when he *supports* them as an instrument of Pakistan's national policy!

(Pakistan and Saudi Arabia CREATED the Taliban for God's sake... and supported them all these years as an instrument of Pakistan's national policy --- to keep a compliant SUNNI 'buffer state' between Pakistan and their Shiite rivals in Iran... so they can be free to turn their attention to their fight with INDIA. It really ain't hard to understand. Classic politico-military maneuvering.....)

Do you really think the head of Pakistan could remove the terrorist factions from his country? If so, just how? TIA

GZ, that’s a real softball you put up there. Just couldn’t let it go by.

Of course he can...the answer is the same way Rudy is going to win the War on Terror – proactively…. TIA
