Who would have thunk it?!?!
“Al Ahram, Egypt
A Catastrophe, by Any Measure”
Amazing, the people in the region can see clearly, why is our government unable to see at all?
“Apparently, Pakistani governmental concessions to the Taliban have been interpreted as weakness, leading to more daring on the part of the armed movement. The Taliban now appears encouraged to increase its numbers, with the result that hundreds of gunmen now wander the streets of major cities, wreaking havoc by closing courts, girls’ schools and barbershops, and killing their opponents.”
Giving any concessions to terrorists equals surrendering to terrorists.
“There is nothing obviously effective to be said or done by Obama during the summit scheduled to be held within the next few days in Washington, with his Pakistani counterpart, Asif Ali Zardari, and Afghani President Hamid Karzai. Will he encourage them to engage in dialog with the Taliban? Can they be threatened with the withholding of financial aid, unless they fight militants? Or can Obama promise to increase financial aid, in spite of the deterioration in security? To what extent can evil remain in a country armed with 100 nuclear bombs? Will this not threaten the world’s security and stability?”
Direct, clear insight from Al Ahram and the good folks at Watching America
