What is this Outrage week? A TRUCE between Pakistan/Taliban? [View All]

[beachmom]

Sorry guys I'm posting so much, but there are so many outrages this week, it's hard to keep up with them all. Just read this on TPM:

Asia Times: "With a truce between the Pakistani Taliban and Islamabad now in place, the Pakistani government is in effect reverting to its pre-September 11, 2001, position in which it closed its eyes to militant groups allied with al-Qaeda and clearly sided with the Taliban in Afghanistan. While the truce has generated much attention, a more significant development is an underhand deal between pro-al-Qaeda elements and Pakistan in which key al-Qaeda figures will either not be arrested or those already in custody will be set free."

Fighting them in Iraq because we're afraid to fight them in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
