Ah, didn't know that. Thanks for clarifying.

Guess I then switch the word "Taliban" to just "Terrorists".

But all Pashtun are not Taleban, its just some of the tribes.
We are allied with the tribes that produce heroin and like homosexual pedophilia against those tribes that want to destroy all infidels and give support to Al Qaeda.

Sweet place isnt it.

Oh for crying out loud.

Bad guys in general, what if they just move to another country to operate from, not the taliban, not the taliban the terrorists, just BAD GUYS! Goddammit, why it's always so hard to get your farking point across around here.

Or allow it to flow freely. Either way the price, and the money to the enemy decreases.

Replace the source of income.
Stop the flow heroin/opium.
Control the funding of the "new" economy ---> influence the society as a whole. "Buy" not only political support in Kabul but in local level, too.
Not an easy plan to implement.

The plan is probably to take out Taleban and then deal with the opium production, the problem is that there is no victory in sight with current policies and strategies.

Bush was right about something, "Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists."
We should stand by that statement because it really is that simple.

Simplicity doesn't cut it. Within that context you should already have attacked Pakistan.

Exactly.
Simple isnt the same as easy.

Lefties and liberals especially like to state that there is never simple answers but they have no working solutions themselfs.

If the western world doesnt want to affirm its position or defend itself in this planet it doesnt mean others will be so soft.

But hey, let it be our children that have to fight for survival, we can just kiss ass and continue pussyfooting.

So obviously, in order to get Al Qaeda in Afganistan, invading Iraq was the simple way of doing things?

Probably another Drone, they've done a lot of hits in Pakistan. I guess Pakistan is too worried about drying itself out to worry about it much.

Sorry...I stand corrected, apparently Pakistan has shut down the NATO convoy route through the Khyber pass.
