Back to OBL...
bin Liden is most likely hiding in the Hindu Kush. An area that has in it'slong history turned back the likes of Alexander, Temujin, Atilla and the USSR. It's one of the most inhospitable places on earth, with some of the most hospitable people on earth. So hospitable that they will defend a guest to the death of their entire village if necessary. They will do whatever it take sto protect someone who is considered a guest. OBL has most likely holed up in one of these villages and is taking full advantage of his status as their guest. The terrain and the locals full and complete knowledge of everything that happens near them gives the locals the full ability to keep someone very well hidden for a very long time. They also practice guerilla warfare on each other when they have no one else to fight, so they are some of the greatest mountain fighters known. Blaming Pakistan for our difficulites in finding OBL is dumb. The people in the Hindu Kush grant very little recognition or submission of governmental authority outside of their own local chieftains. You're not dealing with loyal Pakistani citizens, you're dealing with people who live on thier terms and no one elses.

Whine, whine, whine, whine, but refuse to address the issue. Let's face facts. We have "theoretically" been after bin Laden for about 7 years now. Anybody who talks about "getting bin Laden" would be foolish to not stop and consider WHY we haven't been able to get him up until now. ESPECIALLY if we are talking about a presidential candidate who is showing that he WANTS to repeat the same patterns as the current administration. And quite frankly, you want to ignore that. One of the reasons we haven't been able to "get" bin Laden is because our focus has been SERIOUSLY split. Our commander in chief has REPEATEDLY stated that he is not concerned over where bin Laden is. He had other interests he wanted to pursue. And if McCain is willing to split his focus with "100 years in Iraq", then he obviously hasn't learned has he... So instead of you whining cause you don't like the hard truth of the situation, how about you explain some stuff to us... 1) WHY wasn't Bush able to catch bin Laden in 7 years?Or can we truly expect nothing more from McCain other than his grandiose claims that he *will follow bin Laden to the gates of hell*, but then he won't actually think about doing what is necessary to catch (or kill) bin Laden on this mortal plane??? |
