I'm not trying to apologize for POTUS. Pakistan has nukes. The West is doing a lot, including hypocritical actions, to keep them out of the hands of jihadis. That's one reason why we provide the Pakistani gov't with so much support (re: beaucoup big $$$).
Their military and intelligence services are known to collude with the Taliban and AQ and other pro-jihad muslim extremists on many levels. The Pakistani gov't usually relegates these actions to rogue officers, and the like (ex. AQ Khan's secret work on Pakistan's nuclear program) but these excuses are seen as weak attempts to placate the West and avoid inflaming extremist elements inside the country. Even the Pakistani's have trouble keeping the extremists on simmer and not boil.
It's a double edged sword though. The pro-jihad extemists, in Pakistan and elsewhere, take the West's failure to react openly and directly, as cause for more violence, in actions or speech.
The POTUS forgot that he was elected to lead the United States of America and not the "United States of Mea Culpa" (U.S. of My Fault)

JoeA, you should be running for office you sound a lot like a politician, even though you’ve said a lot you seemed to evade the question as well. You ranted on about Pakistan having nukes, well my friend so does India and India and Pakistan are mortal enemies.
This would have been a perfect time to address the Jihad issue, instead he tipped toed around the question because, I believe with all my heart that Obama is a Freaking Muslim and condones such action.
He avoided answering the question because he didn`t want to offend his "Muslim Brothers".......but ask him about the Tea Party and he won`t have a problem telling how dangerous they are..........

Right, not only Osama and the Dem's think the Tea Party is dangerous, just tune in to CNN or MSNBC and you can hear those idiots bash the Tea Party.. They just don't get it, do they?
Barry avoids the Jihad question
