Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama said on Wednesday the United States must be willing to strike al Qaeda targets inside Pakistan, adopting a tough tone after a chief rival accused him of naivete in foreign policy. Obama's stance comes amid debate in Washington over what to do about a resurgent al Qaeda and Taliban in areas of northwest Pakistan that President Pervez Musharraf has been unable to control, and concerns that new recruits are being trained there for a September 11-style attack against the United States. Obama said if elected in November 2008 he would be willing to attack inside Pakistan with or without approval from the Pakistani government, a move that would likely cause anxiety in the already troubled region. "If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won't act, we will," Obama said. The Illinois Democrat is trying to convince Americans he has the foreign policy heft to be president after a rival candidate, New York Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton, questioned his readiness to be commander in chief.

@thunderpaki1 Basically its all, bullshit. Doesn't matter what organization or government you support there's a higher power running them. That higher power usually starts with an M and ends with a Y... There's no good guys here. Just the haves and the have-nots.

@thunderpaki1 Don't kid yourself, every power answers to a higher power. Whether its the Illuminati, The Black Hand (started ww1) the skulls n bones or whatever other secrete organization...every power answers to them. Masons have said that they will give you your heroes. Basically tell you who to follow. Put support in China or whatever else, they're pawns as well. Only force against corruption is the people and education. Know how to fuck the system. P.E.A.C.E.

@dantej32 Just thought I would repeat what you said for the people who pretended not to see it. Three years ago today, "The only one who was correct was Obama". In May 2008.
