#1 How is it just a major embarrassment and not a Casus Belli for war?

#2 Pakistanis linked to Shahzad, they have tried to downplay any ties he might have to the Taliban, instead portraying him as a lone wolf.

Ah yes the "lone wolf" theory. U.S. officials also ran with this theory for awhile until it was no longer viable. Bloomberg, Holder, etc. The MSM hoped the failed boomer would not be a muslim. They were hoping for a domestic, lone wolf, white supremist or a even better a disgruntled Tea Party member but that theory was not supported by long-term trends, evidence, or data.

Why, for the life of me, I don't know.

#3 Embarrassment? Maybe because we are living the charade of Pakistan being an ally.
