    Why is the Bush administration giving $750 million in “aid” to the Pakistani tribal areas? Who will oversee and manage that money? Is there a possibility that this money will go to the tribes who support the Taliban and al Qaeda? Does anyone trust this incompetent administration to handle anything anymore?

William S. Shirer tells the story in "The Rise and Fall of The Third Reich:" "It originally was established for Prussia by Goering on April 26, 1933, to replace Department IA of the old Prussian political police. He had at first intended to designate it merely as the Secret Police Office (Geheimes Polizei Amt) but the German initials GPA sounded too much like the Russian GPU. An obscure post office employee who had been asked to furnish a franking stamp for the new bureau suggested that it be called the Geheime Staatspolizei, simply the "Secret State Police"--GESTAPO for short--and thus unwittingly created a name the very mention of which was to inspire terror first within Germany and then without."

It's called the "big lie." As you well know. It's a rhetorical question. Big lies always reduce one to stating the obvious. As for dealing with the next "non-domestic/religious" attack on our soil? How 'bout like the Brits? Talk about stating the obvious. Anyone can attack at any time. Are we to live our lives in fear? If 9/11 changed everything, then the terrorists have already won.

Perhaps more important is what is this country doing to prevent an attack here in the states. I don't mean, simple gwb political rhetoric. They are all out there talking. What are we to believe? They are lying and there is no threat, Al-Qa'ida has not regroup? They are telling the truth, but are turning a blind eye as before? Worrisome. These questions are important.

The old excuse for not taking care of the problem is Musharaf's delicate position: strongman not in total control, don't want him overthrown by worse characters, lots of extremists want him dead, etc. The cynic might think Bush needs Al-Qa'ida. The fear and terror card has been played so much that a 'regenerated' Al-Qa'ida could be just what Rove ordered. How far can they take it? Unfortunately, Pakistan does have nuclear weapons. If anything serious happens in Pakistan, hopefully our glorious leaders won't make it 10 times worse. I think the latest NIE is for domestic consumption.
