Good for Pakistan. In fact, it's about goddamned time. The Taliban must be eliminated and it looks like that process has begun in South Waziristan.....

"The Taliban must be eliminated"

This, from the poster who has done nothing but impune the people who have taken the fight to the Taliban the past 7 years, lol. Well, better late than never, I suppose...

Pakistan soldiers are mostly non pashtun ethnic people,pakistan must get more pashtun ethnic into their army,to be more fair to all.

Ethnic bias in the pakistan army should end.

Pakistan has fought three unsuccessful campaigns since 2001 in the region,

And what exactly do they plan on doing differently this time?

sarge,

I supported the invasion of Afghanistan all those years back, though I'm not surprised you fail to remember.

It was the terrorist creation scheme in Iraq I opposed.

"Only to those who believe in the Easter Bunny."

Yes willi, Pakistan have sent 30,000 troops, have cut of all the Taliban's supply routes and are bombarding the crap out of them......I know who my money is on.

I guess your obsession with Islam isn't going to get any fodder here. I doubt the Pakistani's are going into the fight this time to lose.
