Got Change? Are we Now Fighting Pakistan's War?

[Joshua Dorkin]

"With two missile strikes over the past week, the Obama administration has expanded the covert war run by the Central Intelligence Agency inside Pakistan, attacking a militant network seeking to topple the Pakistani government."

"The Monday strike, officials say, was aimed at a camp run by Hakeem Ullah Mehsud, a top aide to the militant. By striking at the Mehsud network, the United States may be seeking to demonstrate to Mr. Zardari that the new administration is willing to go after the insurgents of greatest concern to the Pakistani leader."

Are we fighting a war on terror or simply protecting "friendly" regimes? Is that the Change we were promised? What is our mission in Pakistan, Mr President? What is our exit strategy in Afghanistan? You attacked the former President for not having a plan . . . what is yours?

I hope we'll get the answers to these questions some day . . . what about you?
