Now the President’s security advisor, Fran Thompson admitted yesterday that the Bush agreement to support Musharraf plan to allow the tribal leaders along the border regions of Pakistan alone has allowed al-Qaeda to establish a stronghold in the region in conjunction with Afghanistan. The NIE said the same thing and we now have an expanded al-Qaeda.
As I suggested we need to more aggressively attack the real enemy which are the foreign terrorists and get our forces out of the Civil War In Iraq. I also pointed out the potential danger in Pakistan with my Blog of 7 July.
It does not seem that any of the Bush choices in fighting the War on Terrorism does anything but make our security problems worse.
