" WE" needs to get his act together ........ his country is being attacked and he is asking for permmision to defend it !!!!!!!!
That's actually represents the system working correctly. The defence forces of a nation are not supposed to act independently of instruction from the government, particularly when it involves engaging the armed forces of another country.
Increasingly from media reports, it seems the Pakistani government is tacitly allowing the drone raids to go ahead. Perhaps it thinks that the Americans are doing its dirty work for it.
