United States Bombs Targets Inside Pakistan
Wednesday, September 17th, 2008 at 12:39 pm by BeerslingerWednesday, The United States launches unmanned drone attacks against terrorist encampments inside of Pakistan, at least six people have died.
Pakistan, which borders Afghanistan, has become a growing haven for terrorists that are fleeing US troops policing efforts in Afghanistan. Over the last several weeks the generally good relationship enjoyed between Pakistan and the United States has become strained by US troops launching raids against terrorists camps on the other side of the Pakistan boarder.
Emergency diplomatic sessions had to be held when two days ago the prime minister of Pakistan released a general order to troops to fire on any American soldiers that violated the sovereign boarders of Pakistan.
American generals and ambassadors assured Pakistan that we would continue to consider them a partner in our War on Terror, and that we would respect their sovereignty, while simultaneously conducting bombings inside of their boarders.
Pakistan has yet to make a public statement on the bombing.
