Pakistan’s government filed an official protest with the United States today following a cross-border attack by NATO warplanes from Afghanistan against a military post in Mohmand Agency.
Pakistan said two jets had crossed the border into Pakistani airspace and that they had dropped six bombs on the military post, which lies just a mile and a half from the border with Afghanistan. No deaths were reported.
The Foreign Ministry termed the attack a “serious concern” and called for the US to assist in a “joint inquiry” of how the attack happened. NATO has yet to comment on the attack.
The attack comes just a day after Afghan militants crossed the border against the nearby Bajaur Agency, attacking three villages. Though NATO had often complained about Pakistan’s lack of control over the tribal area, increasingly it is cross-border attacks from both NATO and the militants coming into Pakistan, not the other way around.
Let me guess- the pilots saw some kids collecting firewood and they mistakenly identified them as members of a wedding party?
Way to go, team- you've found one of the quickest ways to lose an ally. (Or maybe that's what we're trying to do, to give us political cover to justify invading Pakistan?)
Sounds like naked aggression. Oh yeah. Pakistan? Ball's (bombs?) in your court.
The US policy been clear from day one.., US plan is to occupy Pakistan for further wars with Iran and China, having their military bases close to Persian Gulf. Look Afghanistan is part of Central Asia.., for US and NATO the plan has been to get their hands on Middle East from Lebanon to Iran.., and occupy Central Asian country.., that was the plan made by Paul Wolfowitz.., Pakistan is part of that war plan and Obama is just following that path set and made by AIPAC. All this is to protect the Saudis, Arab Emirates and Kuwait (tyrants) oil productions and to protect Chevron and Texaco and other oil companies investment in Caspian Sea. The Balkan war so as Iraq war are all connected following the same path.., is a plan for bigger wars and from US Democratic party to Swedish Social Democrats to Tony Blair, Rasmussen in Denmark and ICC chief prosecutor till UN and even Italian Mafiosi knows about it, non of these named people or political party are going to do anything about it.., because they are part of it.., it is up to American people to open their eye, their ear and listen and vote for those who do care.
The US government could not be more evil or sneaky like a snake in the grass.I wish the troops would refuse to fight.They should say when we sighned up it was to protect are citizens and follow the constitution.Not to die for money for the ellite and let nato overrule the consititution that we swore to uphold.We don't work for AIPAC we work for the tax paying citizens of are country.American troops need to realize that the fighting will never end enless they refuse.A war with Pakistan will involve China and Russia,Iran,Syria,North Korea,Iraq,Afganistan and others.Its not winnable and even if it was its wrong.All the counrys that have nukes and thats 4 of the countrys named will not lose without them but even if they were about to it would turn nucular.Thats losse losse for both sides but thats exactly what would happen.All these countrys are much older tjhan the US and deserve to be treated with respect.After all most have help the us including Pakistan.Most country have evils you can point to but when they are against the US it because the thing being done is wrong.You will never rule the entire world you will only destroy it and to want to is evil.
But the easyist way to stop the continual wars is for the troops to refuse to fight.They are smart and now the government cares more about money and power than there lifes and the civilians lifes in the countrys they illegaly invade.Always protect your borders but to try to force your way of life on people well at the same time steeling from them is wrong no matter how you look at it.America should be worried about the homeless and jobless people at home and many other things at home like schooling but after they spend all there peoples money there is littel if any left for improvment at home.I live in Canada and wish are government would stay out of the illegal wars.But I agree if they stoped and apoilogized for there wrongs than Canada should help them if ever attacked and vice versa we share the biggest open border in the world and are alike in many ways but most canadians disagree with the US policys along with the resyt of the world except the government lap dogs that don't speak for there people.
Well, it's pretty clear that these bastards won't stop at anything short of WWIII. Let it be. The sooner, the better.
When will the Pakistani government stop "protesting" the murder of their citizens and actually do something about it? Better yet, when will its citizens get fed up and do something about that obviously bought off central government in Islamabad?
