#1 The absurd Obamaholic (whistling past the graveyard) passage:

The Justice Department, clearly wary of the sensitivities of linking religious figures to terror groups, repeatedly made clear in its statement that the indictment does not charge or accuse the mosques of wrongdoing, and that the defendants have been charged based on their role in providing "material support to terrorism," and not on their religious beliefs or teachings.

#2 conspiring to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization, specifically, the Pakistani Taliban

Wonder what prompted this? I thought the Taliban wasn't listed as a terrorist org, choosing to "diplomatically" address them, prompting the ridiculous ROE in Afghanistan

#6 Jack Salami: Because as long as we do, they won't give the terrorists nukes. Oh sure, they give them material support, arms, logistics, but not freagin NUCLEAR WEAPONS. And I mean anything nuclear, since I have doubts they even have more than a handful of properly-maintained nukes.

#7 Charles: More likely they turn into a wacky Islamist mullah-esque, aggressive, country and push us and India around with nuclear ace card.
