MSNBC
05/16/10

Obama’s Gulf of Tonkin
AntiWar.Com
by Justin Raimondo
This war, covert up until a few months ago, first reared its head when Hillary Clinton paid a tempestuous visit to Pakistan and directly accused her hosts of sheltering Osama bin Laden. The resulting firestorm marked a new low in US-Pakistani relations, and one has trouble believing it was merely a random temper tantrum on Hillary’s part. You’ll recall that during the presidential campaign, Obama openly declared his intention to go into Pakistan, given the chance to do so, and it’s entirely unsurprising he’s doing just that. First, however, his administration must come up with a rationale, and apparently they’ve settled on the pathetic act of a demented ‘lone wolf’ — as Gen. David Petraeus characterized Shahzad — as being good enough for government work. In short, the Shahzad case is Obama’s Gulf of Tonkin incident...
