45. Why are we bothering those nice Taliban - they are just kidding when they say they want to complete
what was started at the WTC? Too bad the Pakistani government let's them hide out in villages across the border from Afghanistan (after conducting military actions there).

Why don't we let these nice people go on with their humanitarian pursuits.

Taliban blamed for suicide attack on Pakistan mosque - Man challenged by security guards at mosque in Chakwal blows himself up, killing at least 22 people
The explosion, in Chakwal, 50 miles from the capital, happened as the country reeled from a weekend of renewed Taliban violence.

It came less than a day after a presumed Taliban suicide bombing in Islamabad killed six paramilitary soldiers and two civilians.


..and...

About two dozen people opposed to Baitullah Mehsud, the Pakistani Taliban leader, were in the restaurant when the suicide bomber struck on Thursday, they said.

At least 11 people have been killed in a suicide-bomb attack at a restaurant in northwest Pakistan, intelligence officials say.

About two dozen people opposed to Baitullah Mehsud, the Pakistani Taliban leader, were in the restaurant when the suicide bomber struck on Thursday, they said.

Several other people were wounded in the attack, which took place in the Jandola district of South Waziristan.

The intelligence officials said those killed were loyal to Turkistan Bittani, a pro-government Pakistani tribal leader.


Even if you're not concerned about AMerican lives ( - those who died in the WTC and those who will die if we don't do anything to stop these guys) you can't ignore the Pakistanis the Taliban kill as it pleases them.

It's too bad the Pakistani government can't do anything about the Taliban hiding out across the border from Afghanistan after conducting military actions in Afghanistan. Why can't they do anything about it, because they are afraid of the Taliban!

IF they want to impress us why don't they impress us by doing something CONTRUCTIVE instead of always choosing to be DESTRUCTIVE. Sure, that get's everybody's attention but let's not act surprised when people react to deadly destructive attacks with acts of self defense.
