The U.S. Predator strike inside Pakistan's border area, aimed at al-Zawahri's possible stay in a village may or may not have missed its target. But the missile attack triggered a series of political explosions in the region. In short, the issues are out. I addressed them in a series of interviews over the weekend.

Here is a summary:

But civilian casualties are always bad and unacceptable, whatever their identification is.

Yup. Can you say 9/11? Osama brought the war here. What was he thinking?

[ANGGAPO]

Perhaps those folks that are cozy with OBL and his friends will think twice about inviting them to dinner.

The camel jockeys will yell no matter what. First they were claiming there was no Al-Qaeda but now we find out different.
