Look at the map and tell me what the closest seaport to Afghanistan is.

The one word answer is the definition of "frienemies", Teddy.

WHO CARES!!!

We get fuel from the north, we can get most of everything we need here there too.

How long is that going to be used??? For as much money, THE MILLIONS, we keep spending there for Military aid, economic aid, etc. All that money going there for a LAND BRIDGE, I think we can fly it in for the same cost and get the same results.

Richard is right... we are paying them to be our "frienemies".

I think the modern term (read PC) is...Coalition....

How convenient...for someone anyway..

I do like the term though. We should start using it. Described it to a "T".

If this is true...

What a valuable target they acquired.

OBL has been the proverbial carrot in front of the donkey made of gold.

If this is true...

I find it hard to believe the Pakistan army could actually keep that secret..... especially with the price on his head....

harbored him...
..poorly, it seems.

I hope they are better at protecting nukes from AQ than they were at trying to hide fish bait.
