Tribal Wars
Much Ado About Nothing. Now we hear that the Al Qaeda bigs probably fled. I think it's great that Pakistan, for whatever their motivation, is getting serious about the lawless tribal area bordering Afghanistan, that is known to be an Al Qaeda hangout. The militants cannot be allowed to fester in the area too long, before it becomes another Tora Bora (if it hasn't already).
That being said, what was with the constant "breaking news" alerts at the end of last week, that said Al Qaeda's #2 may be caught? Pakistan obviously new how to play the propoganda game right, to draw attention to the fact that they are finally doing something to stop Al Qaeda. However, did our media really need to fall for it so easily? Maybe they should dig a tunnel to hide in.
