Where is the real danger ?
We have more trouble here at home than in Afghanistan or with corruption in Packistan. We have our own corrupt government which is daily doing its best to destroy this country. I'm sure that many in Washington are trying to do the right thing. However they are too few. There are just too many idiots pretending that they are smart and who don't have a clue on how to fix what they have done. They are still only interested in re-election. Why should they worry unless the Wikileaks just might name some of them?
AYE, THERE'S THE RUB!

Did we really need the WidiLeaks report to tell us the war isn't going well? The reality is that these governments are corrupt and the population, weak, uneducated and defenseless against their fanatical leaders. Many of the people have an unwavering allegiance towards their religious leaders who themselves are fanatical and corrupt.
Perhaps, Russia wasn't so wrong in the way they dealt with the Republic of Georgia? They sent a strong message and got out.
