Shock and Audacity Part Two

By on 8.2.07 @ 11:52AM

Peter Brookes has a New York Post op-ed about the folly of Barack Obama's "invade Pakistan" comments. I'm with him on the merits of the case, but I have to say that I am glad Obama has made this particular gaffe. It is nice to see that Democrats believe that military force is part of the solution against terrorist groups like al Qaeda. It is also nice to see that Republicans understand that sometimes invading a country to effect regime change can actually make things worse.

This is a foreign policy consensus I could live with.

Foreign Policy, Military, Pakistan
