#1 Stop the UN cash flow to phony Afghan refugees in Pakistan, and terror will end. In fact, stop all cash flow to the UN.

#2 What NATO is up to is to continue operations at full steam during the winter, when traditionally everything comes to a halt there. This means both that NATO will police and integrate hundreds of small villages in the South; and also that it will seriously improve border defenses for next spring.

When spring does come, the Taliban will have a much harder time re-infiltrating.

#5 As long as the Taliban have sanctuary in pakiwackiland, they'll be able to fight against the Kabul government. Since the two sides of Pashtunistan lie in Afghanistan and Pakistan, we have two choices: do away with Pakistan, or surrender. I do not choose to surrender. Destroy the NWFP and the problem will be 95% solved. Destroy all of Pakistan, and the problem (and quite a few others) will be 100% resolved.

#6 [the Black Knight continues to threaten Arthur despite getting both his arms and one of his legs cut off]
Black Knight: Right, I'll do you for that!
King Arthur: You'll what?
Black Knight: Come here!
King Arthur: What are you gonna do, bleed on me?
Black Knight: I'm invincible!
King Arthur: ...You're a loony.
