Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq

Thanks to the Long War Journal
Afghanistan: We are knocking them off like flies but are we winning the strategic fight there? Something to ponder. The Talib and AQ have a save haven in Pakistan to re-fit and hide.

Pakistan: Folks remember they have nuclear weapons if it falls we might be in trouble so keep that in mind as this progresses. This is what happens when you make political concesses to a bunch of madmen just to stay in power. Musharaff may have provided us with an ally in that part of the world but good lord to give the Taliban basically their own state again was a mistake.
