The Indians naturally go to a heightened war-alert level, and I don't blame them one whit.

The links will be found, and when you have people within your country plot and launch an attack of this level against the crown jewel city of a great power . . . well, that's going to get you a very strong response unless you take care of it yourself--whatever the cost.

One assumes Obama's people are all over this, in conjunction with Bush. Bigger guns needs to be brought out that Rice, who's never accomplished anything.

Obama can easily end up inheriting a war that would complicate his first term immeasurably.

And it would be completely within our post-9/11 rule set.
