Nowhere in that article does it defend the actions that caused the deaths of Pakistan's FC. It calls for a joint investigation in fact. Does it call the event an outrage? No, because often enough NATO or Americans are killed by their own bombs. With two military forces operating in close...

Besides the statement: "Musharraf and Pakistan's new democratically elected leaders have also failed to tell their people that the fight against extremists is essential for their own country's stability and security." The whole thing struck me as relatively conciliatory. The Taliban does...

As for the notion that the US will look back at this time and moan at the destruction of their credibility and senseless losses, I doubt it. From one perspective you are right, our credibility has been even further damaged in the middle east and among Muslim nations almost certainly beyond...

Technical note, November is just the election date. The new President will take the office on January 20th. Seems like a technicality now, but if the policy is radically different, a few months can matter alot.

Does the PAF have a dedicated ECM platform like the prowler? It seems a bit of an overspecialization for such a small force, but I seem to recall the F-16 had a ECM/EW specific variant.

Also, for all of those beating the war drums. What precisely would the US/NATO stand to gain from yet more violence from a new enemy? Violations of sovereign territory are a serious matter, but as has already been mentioned, it isn't like the control of Pakistan's Govt. actually realistically...

Western News Source IHT(Owned by New York Times): The Pakistani government on Wednesday condemned American air and artillery strikes that it said killed 11 Pakistani paramilitary soldiers during a clash on the Afghan border Tuesday night. The Pakistani soldiers appear to have been caught up...

__ You think that article is my source for the claim? And judging my credibility by the mere age? What if I tell you I come from a military family and live in the barrack of Chengdu MR HQ for my first 17 years whose jurisdiction include most parts of Indochina and South China? __ It...

Err Japan...Ya know, that country which has not had a millitary capable of offensive action since 1945 by constitutional edict? Who says Japan is a dangerous nation? It could be, they have the technology and money to create a formidable millitary, they however lack the will. They are happy to...

Hmm, the egress route was very obvious, the tango was probably aware of the transport methods from the announcment onwards. No backup team or methods for securing the situation after an event. People just wandering about without anyone in obvious control, or even trying to assert control of the...

It seems from images that while speaking she was fairly far away from the crowds. Generally after a speech, you hussle the princible to a nearby vehical convoy that pulls up when it is needed, so observers don't know where and when their target will be leaving. I would gather she decided to get...

Err yes, highly placed milliatray officials inside the US have said as much, in official capacity, at least according to the previously mentioned news articles. Do you mean that the US has changed the nature of its force deployment and sent diffrent types of specialists?

May I note that Sarcasm is specifically prohibited in the rules section? When english is not your first language, sarcasm simply mudies the waters. S-2 please, do not respond to people who write before they think, it is a waste of time, and extrodinarly boring to have to wade through those...

Sarcasm aside, why was BB so stupid about security? If she had no desire to send a message of "I don't Care what you can do. you can't kill an idea, etc" why did she hold open rallies and allow herself to be crowded by people she didn't know? In the US and Europe, what looks like open rallies...

Imported style of protest? I think a riot is fairly universal and self-explanitary. It happens when groups of uneducated poor people are suck in regions with high population densities. Add in simmering tension because of some precived injustice and before ya know it, you've got a riot! Sure, an...

As for Pakistani scientest studing at US universities.. Anyone with money can study at US universities so long as they are not a wanted criminal. Help with Rail systems is not what I mean by "Sharing Technology". That is more along the lines of Humanitarian aid. As for US technology to help with...

Curiously, I wonder if this possibility did not occur to BB. She has repeatedly gone to public rallys with full knowledge that there are very determined people who want her very much so dead. Did she intentionally set her self up to become a martyr? Does such a decision at all fit with her...

On church Burnings. Here is an article from last year in the US. ___ ATLANTA – Three torched churches were discovered in Alabama Tuesday - the latest in a string of suspected arsons that damaged five churches in Bibb County. Investigators have not discovered any apparent motives. Four of...

In response to energon, there is such a thing as an all-weather Ally. If you share a common heritage and language with a nation, along with a similar political system, you will likely be an ally with that nation regardless of that nations popularity with others. That said, if next week the UK...
