    Pakistan's military has condemned what it says was an air strike by US-led forces that killed 11 Pakistani troops and 9 others as a "cowardly attack"

    What do you say ? Pakistan is sacrificing his people and troops in war against terrorist and already lost thousands of people . It is not the first time that Pakistani troops were killed by US Army.

    How people of Pakistan can support this war ?? While US troops are killing them and their own troops.

    Why did you write 11 troops and 9 "others". Were the others civilians?

    I care a lot more about innocent civilians dying than soldiers. It's a soldiers job to be in danger.

    8 of nine were Taliban, 1 civilian was killed and many other wounded. 11 troops were killed.

    Both( civilian and soldiers) are valuable. It was a cowardly attack. Nation and Alleged US missile strikes have sparked anger in Pakistan.

    This is possibly the us army has understood the preventive war from their other side , they are killing everybody and civilians so that they hope there would be no terorists but they never understand is they are supporting terorism by these acts.
    All imperialist forces have acted like these in the history and they failed.

    well this is not exactly fair...you see when the war broke out in my country i HAD to join our version of the "taliban" ...its called force draft the men with guns and shitty uniforms come for you and you either join or get a bullet to the head...so i dont think its just to brand everybody that is not a civilian as "fair game" ...


    as for the attack this is standard cowardly US army indiscriminate bombing...also may i point out the irony how this is not "terrorism" :rolleyes: :rolleyes: its only terrorism when somebody from the US side dies :rolleyes:

    Pentagon called it self-defence
    “Every indication we have at this point is that the actions that were taken by U.S. forces were legitimate, in that they were in self-defense after U.S. forces operating on the border of Pakistan in Afghanistan territory came under attack from hostile forces,” Pentagon Press Secretary Geoff Morrell said in a news conference today( 11 June).

    I thought US will apologies and investigate the US strike , but they call it normal and legitimate. Is it how US army care about US friends ?

    The fact is taliban militant organise inside pakistan then come attack Afghan and coalition troops and run back to pakistan.

    Pakistan goverment cant do much about this as there pro taliban members even inside pakistan isi.

    I heard there are even pakistani army fighting beside taliban.

    It is much difficult because Afghanistan boundary is with Pakistan. It doesn't mean that US army comes and attack on Pakistan soldiers and civilians.

    I feel sorry for Pakistan. :(. When the USA had Katrina, 1500 died and the whole world sent them aid. Around the same time, Pakistan had an earthquake that killed 70,000 people and they hardly got any aid.

    It does not make sense that this article is a proof that 200 Pakistan organizations are collecting funds for terrorism activities.

    If this is true why USA is asking Pakistan to help them.

    Why it is hard to say sorry for Pakistani troops , instead of blaming Pakistan ? Pakistan has nuclear weapon and it is on US side today. Those ppls died on a war against terrorism at least

    that might be but they don't deserve to be killed by "friendly fire." thats why 2 U.S. soldiers were tried for killing Canadian soldiers on a "friendly fire."

    Al Qaeda has established a safe haven in the tribal areas of Pakistan.

    Senator Bob Menendez of New Jersey said "We've dumped 10 billion American taxpayer dollars into Pakistan with the expectation that the terrorists will be hunted down and smoked out, but al Qaeda has been allowed to rejuvenate in the [tribal] area that is supposed to be locked down,"

    Talibans terror to USA is not as big as USA's terror to Afghanistan or you can say any weak country. I have started doubting the mental health of typical American bureaucracy, army and politicians.
