re: #218 badger1970

One still needs on ground intelligence to be able to identify and then destroy targets. Two different scenarios between Bush and Obama. The ground work had to be done first (under the previous administration) then the icing could be applied. What’s next, body counts?

I doubt Bush had a lot of guys on the ground in Pakistan and Yemen. Bush also had 45,000 fewer troops in Afghanistan. I’m not sure what you’re pointing to - are you implying that a few hundred thousand troops fighting in Iraq was helping us fight Al Qaeda in Pakistan?
