I guess we're screwed either way. At least we can claim we tried, not that it'd do any good.

I've been on the road all day, but I did see that the US has concluded that the Pakistanis indeed did not know that OBL was in Abottabad. That HAS to be the answer, doesn't it? Even if they did know...

Millions of Muslims who hate us anyway. And those Muslims don't vote. Then again, if he's going to wait to release them, he might as well wait until October 2012.

Do you think the president is squandering the political capital he got with OBL's death by refusing to show photos? His reasoning seems to be a bit off. We got photos of the Hussein brothers, after...

It is a bit curious why they felt the need to destroy the wreckage of a downed H-60 in the middle of a Pakistani suburb. In the middle of nowhere in Afghanistan, sure, but in a town full of Pakistani...

I'd go with Option 1A, capture him, but tell the world he's dead and buried, and then interrogate him for all he's worth.

I'm not going to take anything away from Barry. He made the call, it happened on his watch, and he deserves to reap as much political capital out of this as he can. But, as a partisan, I would like...

The Islamic tradition is burial within 24 hours, so that's 24 hours to take photographs, video, run tests, etc, before dumping him in the ocean. (And they did do a DNA test.) I'm sure we'll get a...
