I don't think the US, or the rest of NATO, wants to get into a ground war in Pakistan. Hense not sending ground troops there.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

He might ***** and moan, but he wouldn't do ****. He knows which side his bread's buttered on. He's a ****ty little military dictator, but we politely ignore that fact (to our everlasting shame). If he can't do us the favour of letting us take care of a mutual problem then what good is he?12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

You think the Yank generals didn't want to send in the special forces to come back with the body of the guy who planned those attacks on the US? You think State didn't ***** slap them and say, 'no'?(\__/)

It is if any bodies are left behind.
Plus, I'm sure there are suitable methods of disposal if he doesn't want a mess...12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

Yes? And?
Soldiers die. Often they die in places where their enemies do not respect the laws of war. I honour them for their bravery and their willingness to do jobs we tell them have to be done.
The impotence we all to often display for fear that one of ours might show up on TV dead and bloodied does far greater harm than the actual corpses.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

For good reason, the Yanks learned that you don't just 'go in' with guns blazing.
They pay billions for an air force. Let that air force earn its pay.
I think that taking out that queen is well worth risking a dozen dead Canadian soldiers.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

In short, why pick up a knife when you can kill with a superior weapon?
Now, if Germany, Britain, Italy, and others want a full on ground war in Asia, let's invade the NWPs of Pakistan to root out the Taliban.
Just don't be surprised if China and Russia have something to say about it. I'd be willing to go mushroom over it, seeing as NATO is fulfilling an obligation to a conquered nation, and we are protecting ourselves and the people of Afghanistan, but are you?(\__/)

I don't seem to recall too many of 'ours' being dragged in Somolia.
The Yanks are paying the majority of the freight. They get the call given it is their citizens you want to commit to engagement in a tribal area filled with guns.(\__/)

Wouldn't be worth it. Why do you insist on there being only two possibilities (airstrikes and the full invasion of large sections of Pakistan)? JTF2, Delta Force et al exist for a reason. They're our knives. Let's use them when we need a knife.
Just don't be surprised if China and Russia have something to say about it. I'd be willing to go mushroom over it, seeing as NATO is fulfilling an obligation to a conquered nation, and we are protecting ourselves and the people of Afghanistan, but are you?
Blah, blah, blah. The same false dualism. "Either we use airstrikes or else we must invade Pakistan with a million soldiers and then fight a nuclear war against China and Russia"12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET
