Re: "The extraordinary recoil from Mr. Obama's perfectly sensible statement...."

Yeah, it's pretty funny that even Bush has seemed to come-around to embracing the tactical approach that there should be no sanctuary for Taliban/al Qaeda in Pakistan's border regions... (seeing as how the US has been rocketing targets in the area of late.)

A good idea is a good idea, regardless of who utters it.

Because it's patently impossible to achieve any kind of a permanent 'win' in Afghanistan... if rebels are allowed sanctuary right across the border.
