Fire of Liberty
It seems that Nancy Powell, former US Ambassador to Pakistan from 2002 to 2004, didn't make the hunt for Osama bin Laden as big of an priority as she should have. According to this article in The New York Sun, the Ambassador played the typical role of a diplomat trying not to step on toes in Pakistan by freezing a promotional campaign for the apprehension of bin Laden through the usage of Urdu and Pashto language wanted posters, radio ads as well as matchbooks. Luckily, the new US Ambassador of Pakistan seems to lack the State Department mind-set and is willing to say "damn the torpedoes" and forge ahead.
