In terms of moral support, financial contribution, intelligence, use of territory, deployment of troops, who do you think are the most valuable partners for the US against Al Qaida and other terrorist networks?

I'd not say Britain, since it goes along with everything America does anyway, and fires the odd cruise missile from the odd sub.
Pakistan, Russia and the Central Asian Republics are probably the best allies.Comment

i'd say Pakistan, the government that is, not the people.
I wouldn't be surprised if there was a coup in Pakistan because of their support to the US.<Kassiopeia> you don't keep the virgins in your lair at a sodomising distance from your beasts or male prisoners.

Israel and Britian are of course the only ones who are helping logistically and pushing for a widening of the war.
Europe for the most part has done alot. Props to them. Despite the pathetic trolling on these boards, the majority of Euro governments have committed combat forces, peacekeepers, and humanitarian supply. Of course Europe mostly opposes widening of the war. Which is perfectly understandable, as we still have some convincing to do at home as to why Countries like Iraq should be targeted.Comment

Oh yes, Pakistan and the other "stans" in that area. hehe..
Now a serouis question. Why do all those countries end with "Stan"? Is it some of kind of tribal-language thing?Comment

Pakistan's alliance is a sham. They are doing the bare minimum to keep the U.S. from doing to them what we did to the Taliban. Pakistan was the no. 1 nation for harboring terrorists, and I bet they are still secretly looking the other way as Al Queda operates within their borders.

The Euros will eventually join you, but thousands will die before that.
Today, only Israel and Britain will go with you wherever it takes."Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master" - Commissioner Pravin Lal.Comment

I say Britain and the Israelis. Both have a lot of experience with Terorism and Rogue States. (Applause for the Brits in the Falklands.)
The rest are folks we should definitely stick with, except the french. I don't trust them as far as I can throw the,.

Winston,
Perhaps there's a chance Denmark is the most faithful ally of the United States? I've yet to hear about any significant objections to U.S interventions from this government as well as the last one. But I guess this poll is about allies the U.S can actually use for something...Comment

I've been thinking along the same lines, Monk.
From time to time, this "most loyal partner" thing comes up, both here and from across the pond. Certainly a nice shift from the embarassing days of the infamous footnote policy in the 80's.
Btw, check out the Greenland thread now on page two.
Some pleasant news for you.
