Half of Afghanistan Taliban leadership arrested in Pakistan

Obama is making more terrorists because every time we capture or kill one of them 10 more join up at local Jihad recruiting stations.

Also, how do you fight an ideology? Huh? How?

Obama promised bin Laden...where is he?
How did torturing the captives, jailing them without charges or counsel and reopening Abu Ghraib prevent ten more of them signing up?

And didn't George W. say bin Laden dead...or alive one month then bin Laden isn't on our radar months later?

How is Obama's prosecution of this war worse than Bush's? Aren't Taliban leaders being rounded up on a wholesale basis? Aren't we sending in the troops to finish this war on a timely schedule?

Osasm's dead, Bush killed him at Tora Bora

The "he's only making more jihadists!!" is the stupid fucking spew and nonsense you Libruls kept saying.

I'm glad Obama is finishing the job and not caving into Code Pink and other fucking retards on the Left
We know bin Laden is still alive. He keeps making tapes. strike one

Calling it stupid doesn't make it false, does it? Unless you can prove otherwise. strike two

And it's good to hear someone acknowledge Obama is actually clearing up after Bush!

just a bit outside, ball one

You're behind in the count, but still at bat!
 
My thoughts? It's about fucking time that the leadership finally let the military do their job.

Why the fuck couldn't this have been done back in 2003/2004? Oh yeah.......we were following a false trail of WMD's to try to justify a war for oil and pride.

Nice to see the frat boy is out of office so that we can finally get something done and the troops can come home.

bin Laden's deader than Obama's promise of fiscal discipline.

I for one am glad that you support Obama's continuation of the Bush Doctrine and the war effort. But I'm sorry all you greeting cards to Mooky Al Sadr come back "addressee moved....no forwarding address"
 
Great news

This is better news for Pakistan than it is for us. Pakistan was in danger of being overwhelmed by the Taliban. A Taliban takeover of Pakistan would heve been a threat to the whole world given Pakistans nuclear capabilities.
Looks like Taliban and Alqaeda are being squeezed from both sides

The first thing you got to do is get your facts straight.

The Afghan Taliban and the Pakistan Taliban are 2 ENTIRELY DIFFERENT GROUPS.

The second thing you need to get straight is that the U.S. has installed "devices" on Pakistani nukes which renders them unuseable without certain protocols being met.

Unless you can provide evidence to the contrary, it looks like you're wrong again.......as usual.

The Taliban (Pashto: طالبان ṭālibān, meaning "students"), also Taleban, is a Sunni Islamist political movement that governed Afghanistan from 1996 until they were overthrown in late 2001 during Operation Enduring Freedom. It has regrouped since 2004 and revived as a strong insurgency movement governing at the local level and fighting a guerrilla war against the governments of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF).[4] The movement is made up of members belonging to different ethnic Pashtun tribes,[5] along with a number of volunteers from nearby Islamic countries such as Uzbeks, Tajiks, Chechens, Arabs, Punjabis and others.[6][7][8] They operate in Afghanistan and Pakistan, mostly around the Durand Line regions. U.S. officials say their headquarters is in or around Quetta, Pakistan, and that Pakistan and Iran are supporting them[9][10][11][12], although both nations deny it.[13][14]

The Taliban movement is headed by Mullah Mohammed Omar,[15] who is still in hiding. Mullah Omar's original commanders were "a mixture of former small-unit military commanders and madrasah teachers,"[16] and the rank-and-file made up mostly of Afghan refugees who had studied at Islamic religious schools in Pakistan. The Taliban received valuable training, supplies and arms from the Pakistani government, particularly the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI),[17] and many recruits from madrasahs for Afghan refugees in Pakistan, primarily ones established by the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI).[18]

And I can find nothing on Pakistan's nukes having some sort of American 'governor' on them. Again, unless you can provide some proof, it appears that you're just making that up.

Well...the F.B.I. still thinks he's alive:

FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitive - Usama Bin Laden

What makes you so certain he is dead? Do you have some 'reliable' intelligence that has been overlooked? There is precedent for overlooking intelligence and there is precedent for unreliable intelligence. Which side of the Neo-Con fence do you want to come down on this time?

and that 'Bush Doctrine'...is that the one that says we will pursue terrorists anywhere they may be found or is it the one Sarah the Psychic couldn't define?
 
It's so ironic. Obama is concentrating on bringing down the Taliban and al Qaeda in Afghanistan and Pakistan and the Republicans are concentrating on bringing down Obama is this country.
Isn't that something? Makes you wonder, whom is working with whom.

Nothing new, just look at the Clinton fiasco, how much they spent to try and take him down
 
Fighting a war and actually winning it! What a novel idea! I wonder why we couldn't do this before?

LOL We did.

In Iraq.

We outfought the Iraqi Insurgents on the field and we beat their Democrat supporters and cheerleaders in Congress

Just curious.

Were:

The return to Sharia law

Women being put in "black ninja outfits"

killing the gays

Making "Islam" then "national religion"

The "Public option in health-care" in Iraq

All legislation, by law, to be based on Islam

the disappearance of a million Christians

and the US being forced to rebuild their country with no end in sight to the cost

all part of the Republican plan in Iraq? Hey, if that plan went so well, how come some guy insulted our president by throwing his shoes, barely missing Bush and becoming a national hero? What ever happened to "America Appreciation Day"?

All those American lives lost and Americans crippled. All the money we spent and the debt we placed on our children. There was no al Qaeda in Iraq. And look at what those people do. They burn our flag. They say "Death to America". They hold up shoes.

Are Republicans so damn delusional, they think this is "success"?

Actually I don't believe UBL has made a Video tape since Tora Bora. And that is pretty Strange.

audio tapes. I think he got wise to our ability to determine locations based on the visuals in a video tape.

Shut the fuck up...you use wiki as a source...you're a dope. and since you're such a fan of wikipedia as your main source for facts...how about learning how to navigate around the website instead of making a complete fool out of yourself in front of thousands!!! :lol:

Here's some unclassified info found on the web.....
Pakistan's aircraft-dropped and missile-launched weapons reportedly are kept unassembled, with their nuclear cores stored separately from their conventional explosive triggers. They also are fitted with highly classified U.S.-designed security devices that require two people to enter firing codes.

Half of Afghanistan Taliban leadership arrested in Pakistan / The Christian Science Monitor - CSMonitor.com

MONITOR EXCLUSIVE: Pakistan officials told the Monitor they have arrested nearly half – 7 of 15 – members of the Afghan Taliban's senior leadership council in recent days, including the Taliban head of military operations in Afghanistan.

In total, seven of the insurgent group’s 15-member leadership council, thought to be based in Quetta, Pakistan, including the head of military operations, have been apprehended in the past week, according to Pakistani intelligence officials.

Western and Pakistani media had previously reported the arrest of three of the 15, but this is the first confirmation of the wider scale of the Pakistan crackdown on the Taliban leadership, something the US has sought.

News of the sweep emerged over the past week, with reports that Pakistani authorities had netted Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, the movement’s second in command, as well as Maulavi Abdul Kabir, a prominent commander in charge of insurgent operations in eastern Afghanistan, and Mullah Muhammad Younis.

Pakistan has also captured several other Afghan members of the leadership council, called the Quetta Shura, two officials with the Pakistani Intelligence Bureau, and a United Nations official in Kabul told the Monitor.

"Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory."
-- George S. Patton

Thoughts USMB?

Whose leadership council? Omar? Haqqani? Gulbuddin? There are like five separate organizations that we call the Afghan Taliban like it's one group, and that's not even counting the Pakistani Taliban in the Swat Valley.

Of course the Pakistanis know where the Taliban mullahs are, they've only been hiding them and financing them for the last nine years. I don't know what Obama did to get ahold of their balls to the point they would trait on their own people.

Do note that most if not all are in Pakistani custody. Except "mysterious escapes" when the media dies down on this.

ETA: Okay, I missed it, it's Omar's group. I wonder what he did to piss the Pakistanis off so bad?
 
Still no bin Laden...amazing.

I'll bet Obama has him, or his double, locked up in the basement of the WH and will announce his "Capture" as a October Surprise just to keep Dems in power voting for ObamaCare

I heard Obama is trying to persuade bin Laden to run for his, Obama's, old Senate seat from Illinois, and has told Holder to smooth out some of the technical difficulties about bin Laden being an anti American terrorist and a mass murderer and all.
