Obama administration warns public to expect rise in US casualties

[brandon]

And, unlike Iran and Iraq, Pakistan does have nukes.

Yea but we aren't attacking the government or military of Pakistan. We are just directly attacking it's civilian population. No doubt the people who own the nukes have been paid off already.

I really don't understand how the US demonizes suicide bombers as being cowards and unethical, meanwhile we manage to justify dropping bombs on civilians from planes.

Oh, of course they are.

It's the only reason they would stand down and not respond to a foreign aggressor dropping bombs on their country.

But what passes for government and military structure in Pakistan is fluid, at best.

The new junta may not be so accommodating.

EDIT to add: Oh yeah, unmanned planes run by video game warriors thousands of miles away in a climate controlled control room.

Ever hear of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? We love bombing civilians!

Obama is scum
Biden is scum
Why doesn't anyone care besides us?!
We need to start doing anti-war protests.
Maybe we can get some more liberty lovers to join us

Contrary to many of his other policies, this one comes right out at you. Dude...TAKE THEM OUT OF IRAQ! Then maybe you can worry about increasing troops in Afghanistan.

Change and Hope.

For people who don't actually believe Muslims attacked us on 9/11 (or ever attacked us). Could you explain what other reasons there are for wasting our men, money, and resources attacking mountain people in Pakistan and Afghanistan?

If they weren't a threat to us why would we care?
