On The Current Pakistani "Offensive."

[SDR]

Hello! During the American Civil War
our country only had a population
of 30 million (9 million in the
south and 21 in the north), and it
fielded an army of 3,264, 000 men
(2,200,000 soldiers on the north
and 1,064,000 in the south).

The current population of Pakistan
is approximately 178 million, and yet
it is fielding a combat force of 15,000
mostly untrained young men against
the Taliban ... in a battle the Pakistanis
have deemed "for the salvation of the
state."

This obvious charade (it's almost next to
impossible to find a Pakistani civilian
who takes this offensive seriously) is
either a fairytale concocted between
the Pakistani government/military and
the Taliban to separate American
morons from their dollars, or this is
truly a Bizarro World.

Pakistan could easily field a half million
men army and take back ALL territories
held by every Taliban militant in Pakistan
AND Afghanistan both.

Why they won't is something (not the
Pakistani government or military but) the
American government ought to explain
to the American tax-payer.
