So, this seems kinda like we're not exactly sure what the flying death-machines we released in the middle-east are up to. "Suspected" attacks by unmanned drones killed at least seven suspected Taliban members in Pakistan recently. Plausible robo-deniability? Of course this would have been easier to play off if John McCain hadn't laughed at Barrack during the debates about telling Pakistan before taking military action inside their borders.
In fact, if you believe these sources, we've run at least 20 airstrikes in tribal Pakistani lands. Of course this is all complicated by the fact that Afghanistan and Pakistan can't exactly agree where the borders are...
"I'm not prepared to threaten it, as Senator Obama apparently wants to do, as he has said that he would announce military strikes into Pakistan. [...] Now, you don't do that. You don't say that out loud. If you have to do things, you have to do things [wink], and you work with the Pakistani government."So basically the public position is that we're not sending airstrikes into Pakistan, and the Pakistani Government would consider it a violation of soverinity and counter productive. But on the down low, we do and they don't say anthing. Either that or we've got a bunch of predators that have gone all "Short Circuit" and are running vigilante missions in between make-out sessions with Ally Sheedy.
