Didn't he say we should go in and attack Al Qaeda with or without Pakistan's permission, which would essentially be attacking Pakistan?

Nice way of putting it, cara. Very nice spin. If we were to put our military in Pakistan for military action when they have told us NO we cannot, then that is invading Pakistan. Of course it will be us vs. the Pakistan government. You don't think they'll have a problem with our military invading their country and they said no? And NO, I don't agree with it. They have been an ally in the war on terror and have arrested many key al-Qaida members over there. I would not blow it over getting one old man.

It's not attacking Pakistan, it's attacking Al Qaeda in Pakistan. Just like we attacked the Taliban in Afhanistan.
I think Pakistan has been complicit with the Al Qaeda issue and it is time to take a stand. At least someone remembers WHO took responsibility for the attacks on 9-11. And that person will use the means to capture those responsible rather than divert attention and lies to Iraq.

Obama never said we should attack Pakistan.
Obama said we should attack Al Qaeda -- even if they happened to be IN Pakistan.
There is a huge difference between attacking the govt of Pakistan, and attacking Al Qaeda bases there.

There are a lot of terrorists in London, too. Shall we invade England?
I'd rather we invade Texas and New Mexico because there are so many illegals crossing the border there.

We would not be attacking pakistani forces or instalations. Also, he simply said that he had not removed the option, it is not on his to-do list.

There are diplomatic remedies, which have not yet been exhausted.
