Hillary Clinton is publicly ringing the alarm bell that the Taliban are on the march to the Capital of Pakistan, and now that the United States administration is stuck in a quagmire in Afghanistan and failed to get any European support, the Taliban are marching in unopposed and will likely seize the entire country of Pakistan soon. NY Times Story
According to this story from London Times, the Obama administration has told Pakistan if they don’t push the Taliban back, the United States may have to do it for them. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has described the situation as “I think we cannot underscore [enough] the seriousness of the existential threat posed to the state of Pakistan by the continuing advances,” said Clinton, adding that the nuclear-armed nation could also pose a “mortal threat” to the United States and other countries.
Usually, the State Department is the part of government that understates danger and suggests that a little diplomacy will solve all problems. Now its head is suggesting the country of Pakistan may fall to the Taliban, and that this could cause nuclear war with the United States (or more likely India).
Wow, I don’t remember that in the Hope for Change campaign last year. Words have consequences.
Meanwhile, the US Media is going to be preoccupied with printing photographs of “US Torture” as the result of the ACLU lawsuit and the Obama administration turning over photos it has.

I do think my Rams did well in the draft!!!!! Who would have thunk that we would be here today. Now if we just try to be serious about putting a whole bunch of fear in these guys, go in and truly attempt to win this “war”. I for one DO NOT give one big rip that we may offend the tali-ban and that we obliterate these clowns. The question is not whether we should be here ..
the question should now be …..GET SERIOUS….. the president should have a quick 5 minute meeting once a month with our Military leaders just to say hello and let the ones that are knowledgeable do their job with NO HOLDS BARRED. Let them do their job Mr. president.
