Invade Pakistan?

Captain's Quarters: Invade Pakistan?

"U.S. forces should go into Pakistan to rout al Qaeda from the safe haven
it has found in the mountains on the border with Afghanistan, a co-chairman of
the Iraq Study Group said. "


Ok, that sounds like a great idea. I say we put all of our troops on the border of Pakistan and Afghanistan. I mean all of them, take them from Korea, and anywhere else they might be - even Iraq. Place them on the border of Pakistan and Afghanistan, push into Pakistan with a violent thrust of the full power of the armed forces. Sweep through Pakistan and into Iran, killing all the terrorists - or just anyone who dares to shoot back at our forces. Take down the governments of Pakistan and Iran placing our own appointed leaders into power. After we get done with Iran, continue the push in a broad thrust into Iraq, taking out the terrorists there - or once again anyone who shoots back. Take down resistance in Iraq, and Syria, Lebanon and finally Turkey.Turkey is a mostly secular country, but it isn't as stable as it could be.

In case you didn't get it, my point is that it would be crazy to invade Pakistan, it is crazy to talk about invading Iran. To do either would be to create a battle field for our troops that would stretch from one end of the Middle East to the other.

Very interesting. As a Pakistani who hardly practice Islam I would be gutted if USA invaded any inch of Pakistani teritory. Majority of Pakistani donot like taking religion seriously and are with America but such comments just break our heart that after 60 years of being allied to USA and this is what we get. As far as American aid is concerned, it hardly covers our expences of Afgan refugees who are into our country due to the Afgan war.
