While the “supreme” parliament shed crocodile tears and thumped its chest over the helicopter raid that left at lease 35 dead — mostly women and children — U.S. led forces continued their killing spree and said there was more to come. On the other hand, to show their prowess Pakistani forces killed at least 26 of their own citizens.

An Invasion of Pakistan
For the first time (to my knowledge) U.S. troops made a significant ground attack on Pakistan territory. This will create a backlash either for the Pakistani government or for the occupation forces in Afghanistan:…

US invade Pakistan
September 5th, 2008 at 9:21 am
Three attacks in three days; Sometimes, I feel that we were born slaves and will die as slaves.
Our so called leaders, both military and politicians, are bunch of drunk, corrupt, and chrachterless whores who always fight with each other. Meanwhile if some one comes from outside and rape them they do not feel the pain, even.
September 5th, 2008 at 9:36 am
This is very funny part from Pakistan Policy.i.e, Only India is our enemy, if india attack Pakistan,Pakistan should response with attack, but USA or NATO attack Pakistan , do not do anything. Because USA is our friend. What the hell??????????
We share every part of India with Pakistan, we exchange films,we use indian language, we see indian tv channels,we use indian food reciepe,dress,culture,festivals and many other things…….BUT INDIA IS OUR ENEMY.whereas USA is our FRIEND.
Well done PAKISTAN.
September 5th, 2008 at 3:14 pm
Napak Army condemned the attack,can any body on the forum, specially those who always praise this biggest group of thugs tell me that , they EVER defended our land from enemy, only thing they are good at is to kill innocent, unarmed women and childern.They only specializes in commercial plots and agro farms, but when time comes to pay back anything to nation, what they do, SURRENDER, be it Dhaka or Siachen.
every now then I hear we test this missile we test that missile, but what the hack they are for, to test them on your people in Baluchistan.
I am fuming alongwith other fellow Pakistani but don’t see any hope left on any institution( if I may call ).
Napak army MURDABAD.

@Mullah Omar
Mullah Omar sounds like an Indian, Indian agent or he may be a hindu, who hates Army. Dislike or disagreement with an institution is something else but name calling like this is clearly shows that he is NOT PAKISTANI. Why he did not call “Looters and Chors politicians are Murdabad?????

Thanks for the info. The US has a firm hold on the main stream media. Every time there is an incident like this, they have already cover stories (burger stories) launched to mitigate the media impact. The human brain is like a cute baby, and these media gurus know exactly how to control the average human brian through media.
I liked your analysis of the news story on selling pakistan assets by the SB governer. If I analyse our major news papers, they seem to be following the same line. They will report an incident but wrapped in stories like Afia Siddiqui, five women burried alive, and election of the new president. Now spin all this and see what your brain spits ! I am not saying that those stories are not important, but the immoral thing is, this spinning diverts the peoples attention from the main problems.
This is why we Pakistanis have an attention disorder. They can’t just concentrate on things, thanks to the media control/ engineering by our beloved ISI.

I am not surprised that the US did not gave their official reaction on this. When russia attacked Georgia, the US’s official wording Russian condemnation included “they have attacked a free and democratic country”. Now what this says is its worng to attack a free and democratic country. Unlike the US which attacked and captured Iraq, because it was free but not demcratic. Now what they say in case of Pakistan, its free and democratic? I am not surprised they just stayed quite, so the people will have a chance to be indulged in the other cover stories.

Are we free enough to get our senses together and seriously think about whats going around us?

September 5th, 2008 at 8:44 pm
@NaveedK: You cannot accuse Pakistani media of that gross oversight that one does of the US media outlets. These issues of women buried alive and judiciary ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT issues. To say that Pakistan media is controlled by ISI, is as nonsense as saying that ISI controls Swedish media. If anything it is this media which has played the most crucial role against this defint anti-Pakistani establishemnt comprised of Mushara, his purged ISI and top military brass and the extremists imposed on Pakistan (that’d be PPP and much-lite leagues).
September 5th, 2008 at 8:45 pm
Pakistan media is not without faults, but this independent media is no PTV.

“When russia attacked Georgia…”
Just want to state you are buying into this “Russia attacked Georgia” cr@p. It was the other way around….

I think we need to replace the old hags in the FO with new blood. In my opinion this is the time to play the china card. since we dont seem to mind foreign troops on our soil, lets invite the chinese (seriously!!). Lets start with joint patrols on KKH, Some chines navy ships show up in Gwadar, maybe joint naval or even better air exercises. Let get some chinese “experts” from the red army to help direct the war in Tribal areas…with chinese presence I am sure the cross border raids will suddenly stop. We may have to take a lot of flak on the diplomatic front.But like the georgia affair it will be hot air only.
So how to convince the chinese?? that is where we need some slick diplomats, which unfortunately is a commodity not found in the land of the pure…
September 6th, 2008 at 9:50 am
We? i like this word WE that most of the guys use in this room. WE represent what? First make pakistan a nation, and then WE can be used. Right now it is all about I. Gen Mush’s resignation, PPP winning, everything is part of the drama, they want, and they want, FATA to go away from pakistan. they dont want pakistan anyway. and we? we dont go to God, we go to china, india and all people, and always feel like bhikaris. remember in this world there is noone more powerfull then usa, except Allah. china wont ever come in any fight of pakistan, and stop thinking that all the world is stupid. They are not nawaz sharif with who people can make agreements and break. China do not wana confront usa.

US attack inside Pakistan threatens dangerous new war
…The attack was unprovoked. US troops landed by helicopter in the village of Jalal Khei in South Waziristan at around 3 a.m. and immediately targetted three houses. The engagement lasted for about 30 minutes and left between 15 and 20 people dead, including women and children….

“More than 20 people have been killed and dozens injured reportedly in the attack. Women and children are also included among the killed and injured.”

reading some bits of the story below made me cry…this is happening in pakistan too
Although this prticular incident happened in Afghanistan some weeks ago after which US denied any civilian casualties but the truth comes out now……AND this is what is happening inside Pakistan too….but our new ’so called democratic goverment’ is keeping silent over it??…they claim to be democratically elected… Have they sought approval from Parliament for genoicide by foreign forces inside Pakistan(now 4th in 4 days - during Ramadan). Why does our Prsident cum CnC not disclose to public (or at least his voters) of what was the deal under which he became President of Pakistan???

The majority of the dead are children - babies and toddlers, some burned so badly they are barely recognisable.
The covers are removed for the camera one by one: a little girl of perhaps four with brown curly hair; a boy with his eyes still eerily open; another girl with huge injuries on the side of her head.
Another boy has his hand up as if to protect his face which was crushed under the rubble.
The US had earlier said no more than seven civilians died in the attack n the western province of Herat.
However, the Afghan government and the UN said up to 90 people were killed, many of them women and children

Anything to do with ….Operation in NW Pakistan will be much more severe than that under Mush and in return PPP will have full powers to rule (re mis-rule) in Pakistan but will keep their mouth shut on NW Pakistan operation?

I am surprised this doesn’t make you happy. Who gives a sh!t about dead babies. Stop this whining and CELEBRATE the 6th of September when our CnC ascended the throne. Don’t you love the smell of DEMOCRACY in the morning?

if real bjmistri had writtten this comment there would be defintely refernce to establishment somewhere!!
so if i may add ‘ the establishment in Pakistan after thrown out by Zardari has eneterd Afghanistan and carrying out indiscriminate killing of children and toddlers as a revenge….blablabla
on a serious note the story {Quote - above] did bring me to tears…even more when i thought exactly this is what is happening inside Pakistan too…under the ‘democractically’ elected party…which has no obstacles from establishment as it is part of them now…

PAF sans Govt. directive cannot retaliate Fata aerial raids: Air Chief
Updated at: 1220 PST, Monday, September 08, 2008
LAHORE: Pakistan Air Force (PAF) Chief, Air Marshall Tanvir Mahmud said that the PAF was compliant to the government directives and, therefore, it could not take any retaliatory action on its own against the Angoor Adda-like aerial raids.
On the sidelines of the inaugural ceremony of PAF College of Education here, Air Chief Marshall Tanvir Mahmud in a chat with the media said that the PAF on its own could not decide about any operation. The government has to apprise on the diplomatic level of the consequences of such raids, he said. He further said that we want the people gone off track in the tribal areas to get back on the right path.

As Ansar Abbassi has informed to this poor nation the US Marines were targeted so be ready for more attacks because at PPP end they are very keen to take American Dictation and too much impressed to survive with the their strengthen as well their technology along with their aid amount and at other end of Taliban they are too stubborn to perish their rival group, both does have strong nerves but lets see whose nerves are stronger than other one at last, who will remain stand with strong nerves in this battle field!?
As I have posted an article and said: This Americans Advisers are coming to train to Pak Army Officials is just an attempt to brain wash Pakistan Arm Forces and whitewash of Jihadi Element it is supposed their all efforts are proofed as vain attempt, besides they charge double dealing of Pakistan, as is playing a double game. According to their media It always has. The Taliban and Al-Qaeda are the offspring of Pakistan. Pakistani colonialism is responsible for all its current troubles, and predates 9/11. It stems from Pakistan
