Can't we please, I do mean please stop printing or broadcasting any story about this area of the world and just leave them alone! If they make any dumb moves with nukes, then fine, but, for Pete's sake let stop pretending that this is a real news story and that these idiots are meaningful to the free world!!! It would also be appreciated if the media would stop trying to call this area of the world ' South Asia' most everyone likes Asia and you know that, most everyone has a little interest in Asia, you know that....BUT Asia and this area of the world are culturally distinct WE know that and no we will not believe that the muslim nations of this area will ever be as important as the cool parts of Asia: they don't want to be and you can't make them be! Stop it!

Yes, I agree. And let's stop whining about freedom and democracy in Pakistan also. There are times when freedom and democracy just don't work, and we don't need no stinking freedom and democracy mucking up the water in those kinds of times. For example, we are waging a war on terror now, and only a strong arm or two is necessary to defeat evil, and the dictator Musharraf fills the bill. He is a total hero in the war on terror. He would have single-handedly strangled osama bin laden, if the al qaeda terrorist had only entered Pakistan after leaving Afghanistan with the US forces hot on his trail. But our stout ally did not get such a chance to kill bin laden because bin laden fled directly to Iraq where he orignially came from. That's how come we just had to attack Iraq in 2003, to go after osama bin laden in his headquarters next door to saddam the insane hussein. Two super villians located in the same place was too good of an opportunity to not go for it. The rest is history. If only GWB was a dictator, instead of just having to suffer being a politician putting up with democracy, then he would be able to win the war on terror without all the obstacles thrown at him by all the other anti-american libnazi politicians.
