Trying to ping you guys before the usual “LETS JUST NUKE EM ALL” crowd spams this thread.
This is a pretty big deal IMHO as now our military has admitted it knows about this. Supposedly our doctrine is to be opposed to state sponsorship of terror anywhere. Yet these guys are doing it against our own forces with our own money!
It would be funny if it weren’t so damn sad.
Way, way old news. Whoever wrote this article for Fox News needs to keep up with the times.
Really? No sh!t Sherlock.
Lol. The CIA could have told the Pentagon this well before 9/11/2001. I’m not sure this is breaking news to anyone who knows anything about Afghanastan.
As some would say...no duh!
But with Obama and his ilk, you have to wonder which "ones" he's talking about and what his definition of terrorism really is. Is it the type from Islamic Jihadists that he thinks we can "absorb"? or is it the United States itself which he believes has terrorized the world and somehow brought i on ourselves as his extreme leftist/marxist background would try and foist on us?

islamists all. And we know what needs be done with islamists.
But let´s pretend we don´t, like we´re doing now. Just step into this suicide machine.
Haven’t we known this for decades??
No shit.
The only news worthy item in this statement is "The Pentagon acknowledged....", as evident by the statements on this thread. The question is, why did the Pentagon acknowledge it?
Us here? Sure this isn’t news to us. Do your friends know? Do you have any friends with family in the military? Do they know? Do you know anyone in a tea party? Do they know? Do you know anyone in congress? Do they know?
I flagged this breaking news because now instead of the conversation being derailed with “Oh EyesUnclouded you crazy news junkie conspiracy theorist quit spoiling our BBQ!” you can point to the fact that the Pentagon has officially said this. How can we as a country make the same, literally the same, mistakes that doomed our efforts in SE Asia only a few decades ago?
The Taliban predicted in 2001 we would pull out and they would just come back into power. Are we going to let that happen? It seems like it. Karzai (who is only in power because we put him there) is making moves to integrate them back into the government! We have announced pullout dates starting next year! We haven’t slapped any kind of sanction on Pakistan!
It isn’t just the Islamists either. China is growing in power and is using its influence on the world stage in increasingly worrying ways. They would love to expand their, already worrying, influence in Pakistan after we leave. After 9/11 happened we said we would do what it takes and all put flags on our cars. I’ve looked around. 90% of those flags are gone and now we are just going to walk away and put the Taliban in charge again? What about people who lost limbs and/or life over there? Sorry? Better luck next time?
This should be as big, if not bigger, an issue than spending or tax cuts.
Let me guess: it’s the Muslim elements within the ISI?
Pakistan is working with terrorists?
I could have told you that for free.
