#1 What Pakistan really needs is more Islam.

#2 More than 700 Pakistani soldiers have been killed in the fight in the tribal areas against militants said to be linked to Al-Qaeda, and officers admit that morale has not been so low since they lost Bangladesh in 1971.

Were being asked to bomb our own people and shrug it off as collateral damage, said a Mirage pilot. I call it killing women and children.

Excellent - fighting the Taliban = killing women and children. And presumably, 9/11 = a Jew and Crusader plot. You gotta love the Pakistani population talking out of both sides of its mouth. Statements like this are why I'm glad Musharraf is in power, and not the alternatives.

#3 They would have less qualms if those women and children were infidels. Or Shias. Or benglais. Or less holy than I. Or.

Hypocrites.
