No, not the Orange County kind....




The fragile relationship between the US and Pakistan in the wake of the Osama bin Laden raid suffered a further blow yesterday when two Nato helicopters opened fire on a Pakistani checkpoint wounding two soldiers.

When are we going to realize that it's past time to get out of Iraq and Afghanistan?

:palm:

this involves nato, are you now saying that nato is the US?
 
tff....legion responds when he thinks he is right...and ignores everything else when he thinks he is wrong. a troll and a coward.

tell me....whose command are those choppers under? under what "flag" do they fly? under what authority do they fly? the US or NATO.

and it is hilarious how you keep back peddling off of your OP.
 
it is like debating with a five year old who can't read his own link:

two Nato helicopters opened fire on a Pakistani checkpoint wounding two soldiers.


and once again, since dune believes epic is capable of debate:

tell me....whose command are those choppers under? under what "flag" do they fly? under what authority do they fly? the US or NATO.

^ if you're so capable as dune says....why is it you run from the hard questions?
 
Some people still haven't learned their lesson about clicking links and reading the articles, I guess.


US-Pakistan relationship further tested with Nato helicopter strike




The fragile relationship between the US and Pakistan in the wake of the Osama bin Laden raid suffered a further blow yesterday when two Nato helicopters opened fire on a Pakistani checkpoint wounding two soldiers.

The Pakistani military said it had demanded a "flag meeting" with Nato commanders over the incursion in North Waziristan, near the Afghan border in an area that has been repeatedly targeted by US drones as a hub of al-Qaeda militants.

The statement said the two Nato helicopters – believed to be American – had entered Pakistan at the Admi Kot border post.

"The troops at the post fired upon the helicopters and, as a result of the exchange of fire, two of our soldiers received injuries," it said.

It came only hours after Senator John Kerry launched a charm offensive to mend relations shattered by the secret US operation to kill bin Laden.

Pakistani leaders are furious they were not informed of the Navy Seal mission to hunt down the al-Qaeda leader earlier this month, calling it an infringement of sovereignty.

An official for the Nato-led force in Afghanistan said yesterday that it was investigating the incident.

He said two helicopters supporting a forward operating base in eastern Afghanistan had returned fire after being attacked from inside Pakistan, but declined to say whether they fired from Afghan airspace or crossed the border.

Last year, Pakistan halted crucial Nato convoys travelling to Afghanistan for 10 days after a similar incursion killed two soldiers.

Following the bin Laden raid, Pakistani politicians passed a motion warning that any repeat of unilateral measures would have "dire consequences for peace and security in the region and the world".

Talat Masood, a retired military officer and analyst, said the incursion may have been accidental but it was causing a huge amount of anxiety among a public already on edge about American raids.

"This sort of thing is very unhelpful," he said. "It may be an isolated incident but the very fact that it has happened right now means that it is being seen as something more sinister." Only a day earlier Senator Kerry had arrived to put relations with Pakistan back on track.

"We recognise that the Pakistani people and their leaders take their sovereignty very seriously. Every nation does," said Mr Kerry, a hugely popular figure in Pakistan for his role in delivering a $7.5bn aid package.

Washington needs Pakistan for its supply routes to troops in landlocked Afghanistan. And, if President Obama's planned drawdown of troops is to be successful, Pakistan has to play its part in securing the porous border and ridding its tribal areas of militants.

In return Islamabad receives aid and help rooting out al-Qaeda groups such as the Pakistan Taliban which have killed thousands of Pakistanis.

However, American Congressmen are demanding to know why the US should continue sending $1.5bn a year of aid to a country that failed to find bin Laden and has repeatedly been accused of sheltering terrorists.

No, the article I linked to in the OP and the articles I linked to subsequently identify the helos in question as American.

Want to debate that? You can claim they aren't.

Put the dumbass on ignore.
He tries to find things that he can use to rail against the US Military and then when it's shown that he's an idiot, he just humkers down, digs in his heels, shakes his head, and recites his mantra of "UH - UH - UH".
 
Ah, crap, I just realized how sarcastic that comment looks. I'll see my comment and raise it a "Fuck Pakistan" and a "Kill Terrorists, FTW!!"
