Obama's Policy Being Implemented
Bush finally goes along with Obama on Pakistan
But pleads with British to fight our 'war on terror'
George W Bush has enlisted British special forces in a final attempt to capture Osama Bin Laden before he leaves the White House. Defence and intelligence sources in Washington and London confirmed that a renewed hunt was on for the leader of the September 11 attacks. ...The Special Boat Service (SBS) and the Special Reconnaissance Regiment have been taking part in the US-led operations to capture Bin Laden in the wild frontier region of northern Pakistan. It is the first time they have operated across the Afghan border on a regular basis.
It's embarrassing that we're pleading with the British to help us find what should have been our first and most important objective for almost seven years now. Why did Bush turn Afghanistan and the hunt for bin Laden over to NATO? And it's disgraceful that Bush took another 10 months before acting on Obama's sound advice on how to proceed with Musharraf and the sandbagging Pakistanis. The country should look forward to 'real' leadership with Barack Obama, who has never forgotten who the real enemy is, or where they're hiding.
