"the war on terror" had everything to do with Osama Bin Laden. He and his Saudia Arabian compatriats killed thousands of Americans, but we go to war in Iraq and leave OBL to do as he pleases. Very strange days indeed.

"We respect Pakistan's sovereign borders." Is there a fear of Pakistani retaliation? I mean they gave nuclear technology to Iran and Korea and Lybia too, who knows who else they gave it away to. I mean, spreading nuclear WMD knowledge to our enemies, something Saddam Hussien never did, makes me wonder what kind of friend Pakistan is. I mean, if the "sovereign border" issue was of no concern attacking a country that had caused us no harm, Iraq, what's the problem making a few incursions across the Pakistani border in a mountain range that could very possibly hold Osama Bin Laden, the man who attacked America! Gees, how many more Americans does OBL need to kill before we say, hey I'm not going to give a god damn about Pakistan's border. I'm going to go in there and catch the mass murderer of Americans. But noooooo, let's go to war in Iraq, borders don't mean anything there. Right on, go George go...
