Pakistan is selling its own home-grown terrorists to the US in exchange for $$$. Just imagine their plight : these people have no opportunities in Pakistan so they enlist for Jehadi training in Paki madrassas. The Paki government use them to fight in Kashmir or Afghanistan or to spread fanatic Islam. Once they outlive their utility, they are sold off to US in return for $$$. If the catch is a big one, it is sent off to Guantanamo bay, otherwise exterminated in Afghanistan.

P.S. : I have no sympathy for such terrorists but isn't their government the biggest terrorist of all leading them to this predicament?

Ann Coulter said: "I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate, John Edwards, but it turns out that you have to go into rehab if you use the word ****** so I'm kind of at an impasse."

Do you find this comment offensive?

These people do.

Several Republican presidential candidates quickly distanced themselves from Coulter. As the New York Times reported, Rudy Giuliani called the remarks "completely inappropriate," a spokesman for John McCain said they were "wildly inappropriate," and an aide to Mitt Romney called the comments "offensive."

“Ann Coulter is known for comments that can be both provocative and outrageous. That was certainly the case in her 2007 CPAC appearance and previous ones as well. But as a point of clarification, let me make it clear that ACU and CPAC do not condone or endorse the use of hate speech,” said David A. Keene, American Conservative Union Chairman.

I'm interested in what papers people read and why they read those papers.

There seems to be real loyalty to certain daily papers - please can you let me know WHY you read it and if you read any others.

Good points for the best justification!
