Attack on PAF Base Minhas

[Meengla]

Since there are two separate posts going on..I posted to one. But here it is again, in more direct way:
ANYONE who was even emotionally supportive of the goons of the Lal Masjid is at least partially responsible for this attack on Kamra and for much else.
I pride in saying that I have supported PPP--the only party which, while in opposition, came out in full support of Musharraf THEN about the Lal Masjid Operation and continues to do so now.
We need have our 'Qibla' right.

Just saying guys, Kamra is the base from where F-16s carry out air strikes in NWA and this base was going to participate in the upcoming offensive.

You and your fellows will have enough time to troll later on.....so get the F off .....

Yara no need. Let's focus on the TTP PIGS and pray for our soldiers.

 

[BATMAN]

Lets not start conspiracy mumbo jumbo before we have all the facts.

If USA and India are behind this then this is a declaration of war.

And why would USA and India be doing this in the first place?

They have their men in Parliament, who will continue to protect terrorists.

No terrorist have been ever punished. All are released.

 

[SHAMK9]

Its time to go Medieval on the TTP.

We need a Pakistani Hitler or Stalin to fight this war.

Its time to take off the white gloves.

about time, too much blood and lives have been lost because of them, im shocked that army isnt even thinking of going on full war with them, finish them already

Security guards in Mecca never join in prayer when on duty. I hope similar practice exists at r sensitive installations vulnerable to attack

Is there any better thing than Jihad??? Saving your country is Jihad

 

[Hyperion]

You have no idea what we will do to the captives. And now the operation in NWA is likely to be harder.

Well, I know. But I am proposing an amendment to that and go thermonuclear on their families as well. That is where it hurts!

Threat alerts: ‘Terrorists planning attack on PAF base’

LAHORE:

The Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) is planning attacks on the Pakistan Air Force Base and other military and security establishments in Lahore before Eid, according to intelligence reports received by the Home Department.

The intelligence reports, which have been forwarded to the inspector general of Punjab Police and other officials concerned, stated that at least two TTP teams had made arrangements for attacks in revenge for the killing of Ghaffar Qaiserani alias Saifullah, an alleged TTP leader, in a shootout with the police at Dera Ghazi Khan on August 1.

According to one report, members of the Qari Yasin Group, initially a part of the Harkatul Mujahideen, which started in the Punjab and was later based in Miranshah in North Waziristan, were planning to attack the PAF base and installations near the PAF Market on Ramazan 27 or 28 (August 21 or 22).

Another stated that a team led by Qari Aslam alias Ustad of the Moavia Group, also based in Miranshah, was also planning terrorist attacks towards the end of Ramazan. Their main target was likely to be the PAF base, or other security establishments like the offices of the Inter Service Intelligence (ISI), Military Intelligence (MI), Intelligence Bureau or Counter Terrorism Department. Reconnaissance of the targets has already been done, the report states.

It stated that the plots had been financed by the kidnapping of some doctors from Taunsa Sharif, Dera Ghazi Khan, which had netted Rs2.5 million in ransom, enough to buy a black Honda City car, weapons, explosives and four suicide vests. The car has been rigged with explosives and is being kept at an unknown location in Kabirwala tehsil, Khanewal district, stated the report. The group had also selected targets for assassinations and kidnapping in the Punjab as well, it added.

The intelligence reports stated that the Badami Bagh fruit market blasts on August 1 and an IED blast in an Elite Force vehicle on August 2 were carried out by the TTP in revenge for the killing of Qaiserani. Further retaliatory attacks on public places and government establishments were possible, the reports stated.

Another report revealed a plot to blow up an oil tanker along the route used to supply NATO forces in Afghanistan. It stated that an IED had been found on an oil tanker at Taheemabad on the Layyah-Kot Addu Road, in the jurisdiction of Kot Sultan police station, on August 7. The driver noticed the device placed above the tyres and alerted local authorities. Police and civil defence officials defused the device before it exploded

The reports have been forwarded to the capital city police officer and the provincial heads of the intelligence agencies. A circular issued by the Home Department to law enforcement agencies reads:

“Security arrangements at establishments of LEAs [law enforcement agencies] and vulnerable public places need to be beefed up. The present situation warrants close coordination among all the intelligence agencies for sharing information and helping in nabbing the terrorists before they succeed in their nefarious designs. It is required that preventive measures be adopted.”

The big question that should be asked it how the hell did they pass check post. All army bases require Identification cards and other security measures for entry. So for them to simply get past easily is a security breach and the security officials should be brought in for questioning for this.

 

[Hyperion]

for you go back I have posted some links..

Not now mate. I beg you.. Not the right time. We can all beat each other up later.

 

[Mercenary]

Time for a Secular Military Dictator to take power in Pakistan and wage war on these terrorist rats.

Ever since the Civilian Gov't has taken charge, there has been non-stop terrorism in Pakistan.

Its obvious, the Civilian Gov't is too busy trying to slime each other than pay attention to national security matters.

 

[Bratva]

It's not the failure of ISI.... ISI did warned beforehand, that's why Rehman Malik last week said to Media that, Terrorists have completed the recce of several important places and will likely to attack military installations on EID. Failure falls upon Air Force Intelligence Directorate who failed to follow up the intelligence reports.
