Sorry about the Yellow title, just trying to sell papers.

Though it is tempting to talk about the Bush admin's policys in Iraq, this thread was ment to point out the policy situation in western Pakistan.

It is akin to Hitler retreting to Hungury after WWII and the 'allies' being unwilling/unable to persue him.

“We have to change policy,” said Representative Mike Rogers of Michigan, a Republican member of the House Intelligence Committee who has long advocated a more aggressive American intelligence campaign in Pakistan.

In an interview on Tuesday, the New York Police commissioner, Raymond W. Kelly, called the report a “realistic and sobering assessment,” but said it had not caused officials in New York to take any specific steps to tighten security in the city.

“There is no surprise here for us,” he said. “Would we rather it be another way? Yes. But this is the world, as it is, and this is what we are guarding against.”


Aside from police work and 'home' security efforts, is Bush policy here significantly different from Clintons policy toward this group?

Perhaps more importantly, is there a better policy and what is it?
