The Obama Administration’s dramatic escalation of the air war into Pakistan, to the tune of well over a thousand Pakistanis killed in air strikes, has not been a very closely kept secret. But for all the talk of “boots on the grocund” it turns out the ground war in Pakistan has also already begun, just quietly.
This is the necessary conclusion of the revelation that the CIA has assembled a “secret army” of some 3,000 assassins who have been carrying out “counter-terror operations” on both sides of the Afghanistan-Pakistan border.
Administration officials are openly bragging about this infiltration, and about the “major contributions” made by these forces, yet it amounts to another proxy war in Pakistan, above and beyond the one in which US officials constantly harangue Pakistan’s military to launch new wars along the border on their behalf.
Questions about whether the CIA can be trusted to manage yet another massive international assassination force and questions about what will happen to this heavily armed and highly trained group when the US inevitably loses interest in the region aside, one can’t help but wonder how the administration felt comfortable launching yet another war entirely in secret, and how it will react now that the cat is out of the bag.
CIA and FBI are mad and they are mostly murderer of very many people. They will keep on these killings in Pakistan. This is their need as once they stop then the war on terror will end and security agencies don,t because they get enough funds to kill innocent persons.
CIA has stamp of approval to kill anyone.
One thing the Obama administration is working very hard to conceal (very successfully thus far) is the real reason we are in the tribal areas of Pakistan – namely the Gawadar Port the Chinese built for Pakistan and the (previous) Chinese monopoly on the trade route using this port to transport natural gas, oil and mineral wealth via Pakistan to China. I recently worked with Kalid Baig's translator to translate Baig's blog post on the Gawardar Port from Urdu to English – which I republished on OpEdNews. See Talibanization: The Whole Problem Is the Gawadar Port and Trade Route http://www.opednews.com/articles/Talibanization-T…. The US war against Pakistan is really a war against our major trade rival China. And because our government is run by lying, thieving, murdering crooks, the only way to stop them is to widely publicize what they are doing. I write about my own close encounter with the US intelligence criminal element in my recent memoir THE MOST REVOLUTIONARY ACT: MEMOIR OF AN AMERICAN REFUGEE (www.stuartbramhall.com). I currently live in exile in New Zealand.
