With all the talk of al Qaida suffering defeat in Iraq and it being weaker just everywhere, Michael Chertoff the US secretary for homeland security has stated that the frontier provinces of Pakistan is the most important front against al Qaida. BBC
Pakistan is doing everything it can do to give al Qaida and the taliban a chance to rebuild by signing a peace deal that basically hands the North Western Frontier Provinces over to the terrorists.

Washington has pinpointed the frontier areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan as the most pressing central point in which to win the war on terror.
Michael Chertoff, the US secretary for homeland security, told the BBC that successes against al-Qaeda should not lead to a weakening of resolve.
He warned that militants in Pakistan were training recruits who could mix inconspicuously in Western society."[Al-Qaeda] are using their platform in the frontier areas of Pakistan to train operatives, including operatives who don't fit what perhaps the public believes is the normal profile of a terrorist," he said, during a visit to the UK.
"They are looking for people who can operate freely and inconspicuously in Western society."
He said the "jury was still out" on the strategy of Pakistan's new democratic government to combat the militants.

You know , maybe it's not such a bad idea? let them build up a little , as long as we are watching them ! we could possibly perform some strategic bombing runs,and get a whole bunch of the little twits all at once!
we recently have not been to scared to do it with a "predator" so why not once in a while with a B-1 or a B-52?
really if the situation is right ! what would Pakistan or Afghanistan do ?
bad mouth us ?
As soon as Pakistan made that peace deal and moved out of dodge I would've leveled all the mountains down to the ground
