This was a Bush-era initiative, which reportedly occured as a result of the Gitmo "enhanced interrogations" not yielding very much on a number of fronts and having all of the Arabic agents sucked up in Iraq. There's just no substitute for "feet on the street".
Apparently, what hampered things was the reluctance to actually send the military into Pakistan. At the time Obama was running for president, he was chided as being naive by McCain and Republicans for suggesting that. Obama won and stuck to his guns, took a huge gamble and appears to have won. Had he lost, he would've been a one-term president for sure, and that might be the least of the problems if a country with nuclear capabilities decided to get itchy. This wasn't just drones sent into the grey border between Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Great links. Newsmax is a joke, but the info from Rummy is interesting.
My question is, where is Bin Laden's wife now?
Which one?
The one mentioned in the story that helped the Seals identify his body.
That was deliberate, to counteract the "liberal link" bias. :)Quote:
