Surprising Post Editorial

Not only is the Post supporting recent missions into the "ungoverned" areas of Pakistan, it refers to those missions as "long overdue".

What I find interesting is that if you substitute "Cambodia" for "Pakistan" and "Vietnam" for "Afghanistan", there seems to be a rather sensible case for the bombing we did in Cambodia during the Vietnam War, which was so roundly criticized by liberals. Doing it then was right, doing it now is right.
