Orlando Sentinel columnist says: America needs a briefing consolidation: ‘There will be hell to pay if, in the process of trying to topple an extremist Islamic government in Afghanistan, we inadvertently install one in Pakistan, which has a fine army and nuclear weapons. That?s why the president of Pakistan is urging us to move fast. He knows that the longer the bombing campaign goes on, the stronger the opposition will grow.

Unfortunately, the picture emerging in Washington is one of confusion. One day the Pentagon says that we bombed Red Cross food warehouses a second time by mistake and that central command is investigating to determine how the mistake was made. The next day the central command says we bombed the warehouses on purpose because the Taliban is stealing the food. Don?t the joint chiefs know what the central command is doing? Apparently not.’
