Do any of you b00bs here read the disclaimer from STRATFOR posted by A.M.? Do any of you bother to read ANYTHING before spouting off? Have any of you seeked out the original STRATFOR piece?
READ CAREFULLY the initial article. The quality of the attack suggests sophistication comparable to a nat'l intelligence service. So?
So did 9/11...but it wasn't.
The explosives are standard military grade. So? How much standard military grade explosives (whatever that might be because I can think of all sorts of different explosive materials found in various militaries) are lying around Afghanistan and Pakistan these days?
They ain't making suicide vests out of fertilizer and there are a crapload of suicide vests in your neighborhood. I see nothing that distinctly connects the ISI to the explosives.
STRATFOR was very careful in their disclaimer from accusing the ISI specifically. Rogues within? Separate issue but, if so (and it wouldn't be entirely surprising), that wouldn't automatically connote a sanctioned op from on high.
If and when America ever decides that you are an enemy deserving of our full wrath, you'll certainly know it in an inimitable manner. Until then why don't you accept that we really are on your side, wish to see you defeat the TTP, and only wish that you'd care to defeat the afghan taliban as much.
We are, afterall, giving you an absolute sh!tload of our money that we could easily use elsewhere. It's not some elaborate deception where we toss billions at you just to throw you off the trail of our nefarious plans.
Do you REALLY, REALLY want to wallow in this exercise of self-pity and paranoia?
Thanks.
