I like the way it's worded: not "against Pakistan" (heaven help us) but ""inside of Pakistan." It also seems to cover the possibility that we do it after inducing Pakistan to cooperate (not as big a problem), and the possibility that we don't. What it does contemplate is "U.S. military action," as opposed to merely support for Pakistan military action.

Looks good to me!

This is a pretty crazy issue that more people need to talk about.  Or maybe they don't.  I wish it would go away.  The Bush Administration has passed up two big opportunities to attack Al-Qaeda cells in Pakistan because they are afraid it would cause such a stir that might eventually overthrow Musharraf.

Facing al-Qaeda
With the terrorists growing stronger, their sanctuary in Pakistan must be eliminated.
