Pakistan Attack...

Was this smart?

http://www.suntimes.com/output/terro...s-qaida16.html

It sounds a lot to me like violating the soverign territory of a country we at least say in an ally.

Is that good?

We should have destroyed the entire village and denied knowing what happened.

They provide cover to terrorists. I really couldn't care about their sovereignty.

"Some news reports quoted unidentified Pakistani officials as saying up to 11 extremists were believed among the dead.

A senior intelligence official said Sunday that 12 bodies, including seven foreigners, had been taken from the village.

He said the bodies were reclaimed by other militants"

That's a little tough, given the model and serial numbers on the wepons.

Judging from the huge coverage it's getting in the MWODP, and the instant demonstrations in Pakistan (organized and paid for by whom?), there may be more to this than we think.

The article didn't seem to have any definite proof that it was a US missile. I didn't read it that throughly, but it just seemed that it was assumed to be the US....

Whatever

It was not a missle, it was a drone plane according to reports.

It sounds like if it is true and of course it did happen, the Intel. Reports were incorrect. But, Who said The Pakasatanies are that close to USA?

Hell that part of the world is as volital as any where !

Prolly an Armed Predator... packin' a couple o' Hellfire missiles.

As for the Pakistanis being that close to the USA... only when it suits 'em. That neck o' the woods over by the border of Afghanistan is about as close as the Wild West when it comes to lawlessness. Pak gub'mint threw up their hands in disgust long ago and let them govern their own state of anarchy.

If you invite terrorists/militants over to your house for dinner you might get a missile attack against your house. It might even destroy your neighbors house too. Don't invite terrorists over for dinner, it's not good.

I don't think this article tried to. There were pictures on newscasts of fragments containing identifying marks.

It doesn't seem to me that we've even tried to deny it.

Yes, they were allegedly missles fired from drones.

Hasn't stopped the CIA in the past (flights, secret prisons, kidnapping) why should it now?

It shouldn't. Just like it hasn't stopped the foreign intelligence agencies of most countries.

Fair enough... just don't complain when the shoe is on the other foot and other "allied" nations decide that torturing/kidnapping/killing/assassinating US citizens is all okay according to BuSh doctrine.

It's not the Bush doctrine. It's a global doctrine.

Other nations have been killing US citizens for decades now.

They were terrorists. The people in the villages harbor those terrorists. I'm not going to cry over a few dead terrorists and their dinner hosts in the mountains of Pakistan - something the leadership of Pakistan didn't completely complain about, indicating they knew.
