in Pakistanis Fire On U.S. Troops In *Afghanistan* on The Washington Independent
Before you start to speculate, read actual accounts of what happened in Google news " US choppers tried to enter Pakistani Airspace" despite Admiral Mike Mullen assuring Pakistanis that US would respect that countries sovereignty. The Pakistani forces fired flares to warn their allies to respect international borders and their sovereignty so before you get all testy and jumpy ask yourself what we are trying achieve by being in that region our premise for going to war in Iraq (i.e finding WMDs -more like occupying oilfields for Dick Chaney Hallibuton et al) -was a sham and in Afghanistan fighting Al-Qaeeda seems futile our economy is collapsing because of the strain of these wars and years of mal-adminstration, isn't it time we stopped meddling in the afairs of others and tried to improve the situation at home?
