It seems that a lot of people are against the United States attacking targets inside Pakistan. Musharaff used to warn against it and does Mr. Bhutto ie. Yousaf Raza Gilluni, the current President of Pakistan. Some countries seem to take very negatively to having others carrying out military operations within their borders. More importantly, the Pakistani public is incensed at U.S. attacks.
The upshot is that if the United States continues to attack Pakistani targets it could lead to a support of the Pakistanis for an Al Qaeda like takeover of Pakistan. Pakistan is already very sensitive about its border with India and that same sensitivity can be seen with regard to all of its borders.
If this was the AQ strategy back on 9/11 I am impressed. Does AQ hope to get all of Pakistan because Bush invaded and now Obama wants to continue the occupation of Afghanistan? Attacking Pakistan sounds like the worst way to go unless you want an AQ regime with nukes and a nuclear war. Very bad idea, really.
United States air attacks on Pakistan seem to be intensifying. Is this going to be part of a Bush-Cheney No-Exit Strategy before the inauguration.
