It was only a matter of time. Go Pakistan!

Sources are reporting that Pakistani are giving the Taliban the cold shoulder. And my cold shoulder I mean a 'get the f out of our country.'

Dawn reports this here.

BBC here.

I am sorry, but this is what the US needs to let happen in other places, have indigenous populations fight their own battles. There is no one that dislikes oppression less than those who would be the subjects of that oppression. By empowering themselves, populations gain unity of struggle, confidence and legitimacy. Furthermore, they are not tainted by 'foriegn' forces.

I know this seem like a simplistic analysis; it is. I am tired and will elaborate more tomorrow.
