Pakistan Turns Up the Heat

Pakistan has dramatically stepped up its assistance to the US-led campaign to capture Osama bin Laden, deploying thousands of soldiers into its lawless northwestern frontier, pressuring tribal elders, and allowing American soldiers from neighboring Afghanistan to make forays across the border, senior Pentagon and Pakistani officials say.

The increased US and Pakistani activity [are] the first signs of the "spring offensive" planned against Al-Qaida leaders, which has fueled greater optimism in Washington that Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri, and Mullah Mohammad Omar will be captured or killed in the coming months.

It begins.

Despite the rising temperature, somehow I doubt that Nelly is playing on bin Laden's stereo.
