Obama doesn’t run anything… you know that.

SHHHHHHHHHH..........lol....most people believe Obama runs the USA. You cannot sway them from that notion. Sooooo....YES. Obama runs everything!..hahahaha... to funny.

PS: I know better. and many a president has warned against TPTB giving the government (not the president) to much power. it fell on deaf ears, and now......well you see. But hey blame it allllll on the president. Its good to know atleast one person besides me knows the president isnt runnin jack. Some things are just above his paygrade and security clearance.

well sir we have a delicate situation with possible
spook activity. A sizable force of approximately
10-20 infil Karachi Air/Naval Base.
Med weapons with firecrackers.
Confirmed 4 friendlies down.
1 PC3 destroyed, 2 damaged.
No report of enemy casualties
holding unknown number of
hostages including possible Chinese
nationals. Pakistani Naval
Commandos have the force
surrounded in a building
in the compound.

end-of-field-report

Morning all.....just started work and now I hear on the news (Radio 1 in the UK) that 11 people have now been killed but they didn't say who was responsible. I understand from Sky News that it is the Pakistan Taliban.

I see the thread has grown since last night and I will get up to speed during the day.

Has there been any major developments at all?

Will have a look online and see whats happening then. Seems I have missed a lot.

Also Sky News just reported that Pakistan military operation against the Taliban at the base is in its final stages

Funny, it seems a bunch of airplanes that the US sold to Pakistan were destroyed in the attack....

So how many Orions do Pakistan have left?
and what type of hole will that put in their naval defences?

Thank your sir.lol

I like the fire cracker input. most likely diversionary but niceee...lol

Well it lunchtime at my AO.

I still wonder how Pakistan plays into all this. Are they a Pawn reactive and sacrificial, or a Bishop with lateral motives. I do feel a certain "look at my left hand, while the right hand goes unoticed" play going on. I also feel that the big picture of it all is a orchastrated by TPTB. I feel in the end, I mean after its all played out, and the intent is in plaine sight, that we will sit back and go "WOW I DIDNT SEE THAT COMING" . But who knows. I mean really, WHO knows!

well that video i saw from Al Jazeera showed
1 Orion still on the tarmac but can't confirm
it's operational status.

as far as their naval defenses,
it ought to make a big ole hole
in their radar net.

They were supposed to get 8
Orions total, but only 3 were
mentioned in this report.

And ur right, taking out the Orions
would make a big hole for an invasion
from the south.

a pre-emptive strike against their
rad net and disguise it as a Taliban
false flag.

I think thoughtsful's post above urs
hit the nail on the head.

Destroying the Orions, left a big hole
in their southern radar net. Leaves them
open to invasion sir.

Remember Normandy with all the mis-drops?
The Airborne had the duty to take out those
German Beach Guns. Same tactic here except
use the Taliban/CIA to take out the Pakis radar
capability to the south.

I foresee a Pakistan Invasion from the
sea to the south.

end-of-field-assessment

also another note.

April 22, 2011
Pakistan closed down a US Drone facility
at Shamsi Air Base.

Almost 1 month to the day from that
closing to this attack in Karachi.

www.truthdig.com...

don't think the US liked getting run
out of Pakistan.

and I also don't think the US liked having
2 of their CIA Station Chiefs vetted to the
press either.

This is the latest from FOX.

"Because of the presence of several assets on the base, the operation is being carried out in a cautious, smart way," Haq said, referring to military aircraft. "That's why it's taking so long."

Me thinking that the assets might be a stealth helicopter remains. Also maybe Chinese hostages.( Which other sites have claimed.)
Otherwise Fox is telling poos.

So it is a big hole.. from what I've read only 3 Orions have be delivered and it seems 3 where targeted..

I'm on the fence to motive.. could be to prevent the Orion tech from falling into other hands..

and I am trying to work out why the Taliban would want to put a really obvious hole in Pakistans Southern defences...

But at this point I am also reminded of operation Mincemeat(or the man who never was)

I'm thinking it time to step back and have a real good look to see what other hands might be doing....

remember the Chinese national that is a hostage ??
He's not working or researching US Gov Property
while in custody is he ???

Now why would the Paks invite China to Karachi
where 3 P3C's and the tail rotor section of a US Stealth
helo were ???

Covert military espionage

the CIA, errr I mean the Taliban found the
Chinese working on US Aircraft.
And quite possibly sending that data
back to Beijing.

While I agree that could be the reason...and am deeply interested in seeing where this goes... as I think it might be one of those defining points. I am also really mindful of the lengths some have gone in their deceptions that play to our expectations.. hence me bringing in operation mincemeat and current ops remind me of an MI9 type setup..

CIA Motto:
NOTHING is ever as it appears to be

that would include MSM news articles

this is the latest from the Pakistan news.
www.ndtv.com...

So they have 7 suspects in custody. I would say they might just torture them to get the truth out of them. Still do not think we will ever know what really went down. And who they were working for.
