Afghan government accuses Pakistan of terrorism links
Hamid Karzai today has made one of the boldest statements I've heard him make - directed right at the Pakistani madrassas that provide motivated terrorists for the Taliban.
I post this because I'm under the impression that many people don't understand the link between the Taliban and Pakistan, and therefore don't appreciate my stand that the solution to the Afghan problem is not to put out Taliban fires. At least not until you've shut off the source of Taliban from Pakistan.

Exactly.
Dealing with Pakistan properly has got to be one of the prongs of attack in dealing with the Taliban.
If we don't do that, our troops will be there forever and it will simply become a meat grinder.
