Militants destroy NATO convoy in Pakistan
www.msnbc.msn.com
 PESHAWAR, Pakistan - Militants in northwestern Pakistan attacked trucks ferrying supplies to NATO and U.S. forces in Afghanistan on Monday,
killing two people and destroying a dozen vehicles, witnesses and police said.
Meanwhile, a suicide bomber killed eight people and wounded 40 others at a military checkpoint in the region's Swat Valley, police said.
The spasm of violence comes amid a spike in tensions between Pakistan and rival India over last week's terror attacks in Mumbai, which New Delhi has
blamed on Pakistani militants. (visit the link for the full news article)

The attack on the U.S.-led coalition trucks took place at a terminal in Peshawar, which sits along the supply route from Pakistan to Afghanistan. The
city has seen an upsurge in violence in recent weeks, including the slaying of an American working on a U.S.-funded aid project.
As each day passes i believe that USA will be in Pakistan very soon.Everything that happens lately is related to Pakistan...the attacks in india
"against" US and UK citizens and now this.

Obama always wanted into Pakistan.
It freaks me out how nicely everything gets set up for these politicians.

Some of yus need to go on leave, you have been surrounded by over 25 factions of peshewar, all fighting in an evil war where the rules are no one
survives. Your beleif in political aims and goals are just war weariness. There isn't any other goal but to survive. That is the only mission of your
military to kill until the killing of U.S. soldiers stops. Now keep your head down don't move too much, and don't bunch up.
It's a falicy of high tech training the war zone needs to continue to be swept for the explosives before believing anyone is an ally. As you travel
through the middle east you will be killed constantly by those claiming to be non-combatants. High tech training makes you believe you can pin point
terror with a satelite. Some one should have pointed out that iud ya thinK?

I seriously doubt we will get involved directly in Pakistan. However, I do see us using the back door in disguise via India. We will back up India as
they create turmoil for Pakistan. That way, for the most part, our hands will be clean.

how connected are the "militants" in the hills and villages of the northwest to the guys at the top with the keys to the nukes. Are they in
separate worlds, so to speak, or bosom buddies?
gotta wonder .....
not an easy place to figure out.
and therefore scarier than most

Now we know who benefitted most from the attacks in India. Pakistan has nothing to offer the U.S. but hostility. What this shows is that the war
against terrorism is a long ways from being over.

What i love is the fact that they state that they attacked NATO AND US supplies...isn't US in NATO? Couldn't they say just NATO?

Does anyone really think that these actions are the result of the Pakistani government?
The region that call Pakistan is mostly an arid wasteland, that has never in history been a succesful, self-governed state...
This is more the action of local tribal warriors... or people that align them self to the local militant leaders...
Now, i do not trust the government of Pakistan as much as the next guy, but the actions coming out of the region do not have the marks of the
Officails of Pakistan...
