"Afghanistan's not worth a mullah's hemorrhoid."

Ralph Peter's sounds off on Obama's "comprehensive new strategy" for Afghanistan and Pakistan. Where's the hope and change? Not in Obama's AF/PAK strategy....or lack thereof.

Putting the bulk of our effort into Afghanistan amounts to attacking a crisis in California by rescuing Nevada. It's Pakistan that lies (and lies and lies) at the heart of this problem.

We're such good buds that, while the Pakistanis protect the worst elements within the Taliban, manipulate our key supply line and pander to terrorists, Obama wants to guarantee Pakistan's stunningly corrupt politicians $1.5 billion in aid every year. Plus military aid.

Why on earth should the Pakistanis help us when we reward them lavishly for screwing us?
