#1 We are urging him to do more, and we’re providing our full support to what he’s contemplating.”

Unless it is nuking Wariristan then there is nothing to contemplate that will solve the problem.

#3 Which targets, exactly, do you propose nuking in a heavily mountainous territory with few cities?

How about the entire border region from the Hindu Kush down through Baluchistan to the Iranian border. A nice wide glowing stretch of radioactive wasteland would probably put an end to cross-border operations once and for all. Of course, nuking half of Pakistan would also do wonders for clearing up the mess known as the Muzzlem Muddled East.

#4 US [administration] backs Musharraf against Taliban (never mind what India thinks), and backs Abbas against Hamas (never mind that Israel thinks), and backs Mexico against USA (wait. that can't be right. can it?).
