Hmm.. sounds like a mirror of what Bush said when we began our "War on Terror" - bad move by Obama right there.

must make substantial progress in closing down the training camps, evicting foreign fighters and preventing the Taliban from using Pakistan as a staging area for attacks on Afghanistan."
"I understand that President Musharraf has his own challenges," Obama said in his speech. "But let me make this clear. There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again.
"It was a terrible mistake to fail to act when we had a chance to take out an Al Qaeda leadership meeting in 2005. If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won't act, we will."
I'm not sure if you guys remember or not, but we still haven't gotten justice against the fucknuts who flew planes into our Twin Towers and Pentagon, Let alone the war in IRAQ is pointless, but if there is shit out there that needs to be handled, then we need to handle it. I've always been a supporter of the war in Afghanistan, and we've actually made some leaps and bounds over there, but Iraq, our president's personal agenda has been a bloddy massacre warzone with no possible outcome other than to just leave.
I don't really object to what Obama is saying, I actually agree with it. What president Bush did was completely opposite.
