You are helping them to destroy you from within, in my opinion. And you won't wake up to the real threat until the 'dirty bombs' start exploding in your cities.

Just when WILL you Americans stop blaming your government for everything that happens?
Incidentally, it don't really matter to me WHAT you think, as I'm English.
But it seems to me that every attack is blamed on the government in one way or another.
I'm pretty sure that the mad mullahs must be wetting themselves with laughter at how a 'nation is divided against itself'.
This only goes to serve their purpose.

BINGO,
ISLAMABAD (AFP) - Pakistan's top leaders were due to have dinner at Islamabad's Marriott hotel on the night it was bombed but cheated death after switching venue at the last minute, a senior official said Monday.
The hotel however denied the claim, made by interior ministry chief Rehman Malik, that President Asif Ali Zardari, Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani and military top brass had narrowly escaped Saturday's devastating attack.
A suicide bomber rammed a truck packed with more than half a tonne of explosives into the security gates of the luxury hotel, killing at least 60 people and wounding more than 260 in a massive fireball.
In further indications of the unrest gripping Pakistan, gunmen abducted an Afghan diplomat and killed his driver in the northwestern city of Peshawar while Pakistani troops fired at two US helicopters near the Afghan border.
Malik told reporters that the speaker of the national assembly, or lower house of parliament, had arranged a dinner for Zardari, Gilani and armed services chiefs at the Marriott.
"The president and the prime minister changed the venue to the prime minister's house. The function was not held at the Marriott, thus the whole leadership was saved," Malik added.

I'm a regular reader of ATS and posting this from an Internet cafe. I'm stationed at the embassy and this is our first opportunity to venture into the city after the bomb at the Marriott. Several others stationed here are suspicious of what appeared to have been an intense op that began late Saturday. The OCC here is not necessarily out of the way, and it was very active with people clearly orchestrating an op. OCC remains active, but not as much as it was Saturday and Sunday, before the bomb blast. The implications of this information may indicate this op was designed to generate sympathy and support for U.S. incursions targeting AQ.
The Department of Defense announced today the death of a sailor who was supporting Operation Enduring Freedom.
Cryptologic Technician Third Class Petty Officer Matthew J. O’Bryant, 22, of Duluth, Ga., died September 20 in the bombing of the Marriott Hotel in Islamabad, Pakistan. O'Bryant was assigned to the Navy Information Operations Command Maryland, Fort Meade, Md.
Pakistani defence expert Lt. General (R) Talat Masood says that:
Explosive RDX is used in anti tank mines. It is not present in the markets for sale, only militaries retain and use it.
It was either looted from a ransacked US marine camp in Afghanistan or Afghan Army camp.
May be Indians or Afghans supplied or sold it to terrorists.
He said the explosive may have been stolen from a Pakistani Factory.

Perhaps their intent is to kill the Pakistani leaders for cooperating and allowing American infidels for attacking in Pakistan on Taliban and AQ members.

For these atrocities to stop then it is paramount that we find out who is committing all the bombings.
