CLINTON SLAMS PAKISTAN OVER OSAMA

Apparently Hilary Clinton and the rest of the divine messengers from the Obama White House have a message for Pakistan: you are soft on terror! This is an amazing statement coming from the White House which is unwilling to heed General McChrystal's request for more troops in Afghanistan. The liberals and the Obama White House keep ranting and raving about the war being in Pakistan not Afghanistan, but this is a gross oversimplification. This seems to be to be more of the defeatist shell game they have been playing since the 2008 election when they claimed it wasn't Iraq we should focus on it was  Afghanistan and now they claim it’s actually Pakistan. The actual situation is that the liberals hate war and they refuse to fight for freedom and so they continually create smoke and mirrors diversions to hide and obscure the facts on the ground. Here is a news flash for the Obama White House Afghanistan and Pakistan are not separate issues the presence of terrorists in both countries undermines the security of all Southeast Asia and by extension the United States. The Terrorists who attacked America on 9/11/01 were training in Afghanistan but these same terrorists use the porous border between Afghanistan and Pakistan to conduct their guerilla warfare and terrorist activity.




To make matters worse Secretary of State Clinton on her visit to Pakistan came out and accused Pakistan of not capturing Osama Bin Laden and not taking adequate steps to combat terror. This charge is both ludicrous and hypocritical what has the Obama White House done to fight terrorism other than launch some missiles from unmanned drones. The answer is very little and to win the war on terrorism you have to have boots on the ground rooting out terrorists and destroying their physical networks, safe havens and infrastructure. Drone fired missiles will harm the terrorists but they will not ultimately defeat the terrorists. Instead of criticizing other people from Pakistan to George W. Bush how about doing something Mrs. Clinton? America has also been pursuing Osama Bin Laden to no avail so stop shifting the blame in typical liberal fashion and actual do something productive.

Bottom line the Obama White House has no credibility criticizing other governments for failed foreign policy when they are single handily lowering America’s status worldwide. Instead of apologizing to the world and/or ripping our allies a new one how about aiding our allies in the global war on terror?  Pakistan has a flawed and inconsistent track record in fighting against Islamic extremists, but we should give them the military aid and intelligence they need to win the war against the terrorists and not take cheap shots that help nothing.  For a White House that promised hope and change all I see is a lot of hot air and self-righteous preening.  Clinton accused Pakistan of not wanting to defeat Al-Qaeda sounds like Pakistan is taking a page out of the Obama playbook.  If the White House is concerned about defeating Al-Qaeda why are they doing the following:  (1) harassing CIA officials who protected America with potential prosecution (2) closing Guantánamo Bay  and (3) criticizing the foreign policy of a former POTUS who had Al-Qaeda on their heels and the list goes on and on ...
