Welcome and cheers
I served 1967-1971 Vietnam-era Strategic Air Command Headquarters, USAF. I was just an Illustrator for General Nazarro and General Holloway at Bldg 400, at SAC, prepared the briefings for General Staff (prepared with the Captain from 3Am to 9AM morning briefings of Southeast Asia events on the ground). My brother was Air Traffic Control in Thailand, a lifer, same as dad who was Pacific theater WWII under MacArthur. Love the military, and got interested in Pakistan after it became obvious that the terrorists over the Durand Line were the real root problem. I try to build some bridges of understanding...a thankless job, but I try.
Welcome and cheers

To make mistakes is human. To blame someone else for your mistake, is strategic.
Welcome, mate!
Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
Abusing Yellow is meant to be a labor of love, not something you sell to the highest bidder.

Those who know don't speak
Welcome to the WAB RW...being a 'just' to a couple of Generals is a slight understatement.
Welcome, glad to have you with us.

Any of those generals remind you of ol' Rip?
Welcome to the WAB, Wabbits and Wabbitville.
Rotsa Ruck building bridges to those bozos in Islamabad (errr....Rawalpindi). We're long-since past that. Our government owes the families of every dead or maimed soldier/marine/sailor/airman in Afghanistan a profound apology.
They make shameless and unrepentant war upon us in the only manner available. We facilitate that. Doing so is nothing less than criminal.

Right, Mihais, that's where you come in. Some bridges need destroying. And, at times, some attempts at bridge-building can be productive. It all depends on geopolitical realities on the gound.
Agreed- "building bridges to those bozos in Islamabad...We're long-since past that " True statement.
If you read my essay carefully you will see we have a common enemy- the Pak Army and ISI- no one builds an effective bridge there, not me, not even well-intentioned Admiral Mullen. My target audience is not the radicals, the Pak military or ISI; it is the democratic minority there in Pakistan that are on our side.
True...There was nothing but brass in that place.
