Pakistan and unilateralism.

McCain pointed to a public statement Obama made regarding the US going into Pakistan as naive. On ABC Sunday morning McCain reiterated this debate point, framing such an action as 'unilateralism'.

It is my understanding that letting someone know you are willing to do it yourself if they are unwilling to comply, while not bilateral, is far better than not ‘saying it out loud in public’ and then doing it anyway. The latter, secrecy, is the current position of McCain and is nothing more than a continuation of current Bushian foreign policy.

The US wants to help everyone...bring peace to the world...the altruistic way is not telling anybody and doing it anyway...this is what McCain is trying to do and you misunderstood the man...
