With two missile strikes over the past week, the Obama administration has expanded the covert war run by the Central Intelligence Agency inside Pakistan, attacking a militant network seeking to topple the Pakistani government.
Problems
- Infringing on the so called sovereignty of another nation.
- A ‘war’ being waged without Congress declaring it.
- A supposed ‘covert war’ being executed, period.
- How is it covert if it’s mentioned in the first sentence of an article in the nationally (internationally?) read New York Times?
