But I thought that "Iraq was the central front on the war on terra"?!

Not according to the GAO.

After the U.S. invasion in Afghanistan, Taliban and al-Qaida fighters retreated across the mountainous 373-mile border into Pakistan's unpoliced tribal areas.


But we've given Pakistan almost as much money as we spend on one month in Iraq.

Isn't that enough?

I listened to some of the GAO report being read and it is bad news. I doubt that we will hear much about it from the corporate media. Luckily the PDF of the actual report is linked to; I'm sure that most people will have the time to read it.

Is there one single thing that this Administration has done that actually benefits this Country? Have they handled anything correctly? Anything?

btw, the title of the report is:

"The United States Lacks Comprehensive Plan to Destroy the Terrorist Threat and Close the Safe Haven in Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas"

I was reading about this last night, and it's a nightmare. It would seem Bushco pretty much rewarded them for attacking us and is helping them escape. It's like I'm taking crazy pills - why won't anyone listen?
