US General Warns Pakistan Of “New Kind” Of War - As In, We’ll Be Going In, And Don’t Try To Stop Us
He said it for the world and the message is clear: we’ll clean up your back yard if you don’t, which means we’re well-prepared to kill your troops if they try to stop us. By saying this, he’s signaling to the Pakis that this is the decision that has been by the President himself. Real or bluff, that’s the message.

LAHORE: A new war could begin if Pakistan does not step up its fight against terrorists, Maj Gen Jeffrey J Schloesser of the US Army said in a report published in an American weekly on Sunday.
“If militants escape into Pakistani territory and Islamabad does not step up, a new kind of war could well begin,” he said.
According to the report, Gen Schloesser, who leads 19,000 US soldiers operating on the frontier, estimates that his forces are facing some 7,000-10,000 insurgents in eastern Afghanistan – a higher number than previously disclosed by any US commander.
He said he planned to keep his troops operating deep inside Taliban territory this winter. He hoped they would be able to take advantage of the mobility to seek out any safe havens and facilitation areas and any places the terrorists can go for ‘rest and recreation’ in Afghanistan. He said he would give terrorists the options to flee, get killed or captured, or reconcile.

September 15th, 2008 at 9:38 amWhat wine goes with roasted terrorist?
September 15th, 2008 at 10:05 amI’d say a nice Bourgone Wine would fit perfectly. After all the French, like the Jihadis are masters at loosing wars
September 15th, 2008 at 10:12 amRob, mind your ass
September 15th, 2008 at 10:25 amMore wars? Sigh.. I have had enough already.
September 15th, 2008 at 10:45 amBattles in a war Mindy, just battles in a war with no geographical boundaries.
September 15th, 2008 at 10:53 amIf one gets tired—-one dies, let’s make it them.
If the municipality has to clean up your yard for you, you still get the bill!
September 15th, 2008 at 12:31 pmMaj Gen Jeffrey J Schloesser is a sweetheart of a man and his wife is a nice as they come. Just had to say that.
Anyway.. It is time to make the rules instead of playing by new ones everyday. If the Pakis are not willing to keep their end of the bargain then they need to get out of the way or prepare to face the consequences. Their choice. Either get eh bad guys or allow us to .. OR they get grouped into bad guy status and are fair game.
September 15th, 2008 at 1:27 pmI’d pair it with either a Bordeaux or a Boujalis Villages. The terrorist would likely taste like bear meat (considering what bears eat), and so at least you’d have a nice wine to sip on.
September 15th, 2008 at 1:41 pmFinally! Pakistan has had 7 years to clean up their back yard and have failed to do their job. We have to clean up their back yard if we want to win this war.
September 15th, 2008 at 3:22 pmI’d mix the roasted terrorists with slop and tables scraps, that way the hogs would eat it!!
September 15th, 2008 at 3:59 pmI prefer a nice Australian Shiraz, not too bold, but a hint of berries.
September 15th, 2008 at 5:23 pmScrew wine, I’ll take whisky any day.
And tedders is right, feed’em to the hogs!
