Attorney General Eric Holder says that Times Square's alleged would-be bomber Faisal Shahzad has been linked to the Pakistani Taliban.
So, what are we going to do? Launch yet more drones against Pakistan's Waziristan and Tribal Areas lands, thereby potentially "creating" more people like Shahzad by upping an undeclared war? Are we going to do that to the point of potentially destabilizing the government in Islamabad?
The answer is probably yes.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
